My mini gelding has an extremely think mane and came to me with a
"broken" crest. It droops to the right side.

If that were true, wouldn't the Shetlands crests fall over if their
manes got long, or the Icelandics? Also, one of the PRE (Pura Raza
Española) horses in the production of Cavalia, an older stallion,
has a fallen crest that flops over. His mane is still long, and
he's still a proud horse.
I was under the impression that the Fjords manes were cut to
emphasize the arch of the neck and show off the midstol. Not every
Fjord's manes are heavy, some are down right skimpy.
I'm wondering letting these heavy manes to fall naturally can cause
the crest
to start to fall also..my farrier thinks the manes are just so
heavy that's
probably why the manes have to be cut...any info on this?
