What is Lucy bred for?

We cannot decide what Lucy is bred for

Personally, I don't think she was bred for anything in particular. But if you let us have a look at her sire and dam, then we might be able to use them as starting points. IE, if her sire is a champion WP horse & her dam a WP producer, then we could probably deduce that she was bred to do WP.

Her confo doesn't yell out any discipline in particular. Are you sure she wasn't breed to have a pretty color and be marketed as a pinto. I don't agree with it but there are people out there who breed just for color.

You guys really don't think she was bred for anything? She has excellent balance (although the pictures show otherwise) and good hock drive. She is unregistered, we got her before she went off to slaughter.

Ah, being unregistered, I doubt she was bred for anything in that case. If she were bred for a certain discipline, you'd think that her breeders would have registered her so she could show/compete that characteristic at breed shows. Any idea what her breeding is?

I said that wrong. If she is registered, we don't know about it (the guy we got her from tosses all of the registration papers no matter what, silly, really.) She is definitely a Paint (QH).

How are you sure she's a Paint?

Paintlover · 11-09-2004, 06:04 PM

Oh, trust me.......she is paint. What makes you think she isn't? Is she too short?

She could be a Pinto.

Why would you think that?
