Re: Fjord for sale on web site
This message is from: "Reena" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> That is very true Mike.and of course each persons monitor displays colors differently...the picture certainly didn't do 'waldo' justice, let's put it that way!! and as I am not up on the 'colors and characteristic' of such, I will have to defer to the more knowledgeable on the list. that was just my first impressionand might as well pipe in, that I didn't get any weird website either.just the one listed. only thing I can think of is some of the links come in looking like HTML.http://www.blahblahblahinstead of just the actual link like in Mike's signature below...maybe if clicking on it l(ike in the above example) somehow it could have had a misspelling in it or something...I usually cut/paste when they look like that.. two cents worth reena quote from Mike May: It could be a red dun. I noticed the seeming lack of black in the mane too. Normally the red dun wouldn't have the black in the tail either. hard to tell a lot from a picture actually.

RE: Fjord for sale on web site
This message is from: "Dagrun Aarsten" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I went to have another look at the fjord for sale - and he's gone! Sold quickly? There were two things that would make me suspect a cross: Small eyes set quite high up on his head (not typical "fjord" face) and a high tailset. Then again he might be just a pure fjord born like that, but that tailset is unusual.

Tee Shirts - Countdown
This message is from: Steve McIlree <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Well, we're really getting there! I only need four more pre-orders and I'll be able to go to the printer. I've even had a person who does not subscribe to the list send an order for a shirt. Now how about a couple of you people who have been on the list since nearly day one putting in an order? I know there are some of you who didn't get a shirt last time and haven't ordered one this time. Come on, only four more! For hopefully the last time, here are the facts and numbers on these tee shirts, based on a print run of 100 shirts. They will be printed on a high quality white 100% cotton tee. The four color silk screen picture is the Fjord checking E-mail on the computer, created by Pat Holland, which is on the List page (http://fjordhorselist.com). Over the picture are printed the words "FjordHorse List" in black. The price is $11.95 for sizes small, medium, large, and extra large. The price for 2X is $13.45, 3X is $14.95. All prices are US dollars and all orders will have a shipping charge of $5.00 for up to three shirts, and $8.65 for four to six shirts. Anyone who is interested in getting shirts, please contact me by private E-mail ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). Please send NO money at this time!

Yes, I thought of that also. Wonder if the seller has ever tried having the horse scanned for a microchip? Might be he could be positively identified that way. I assume most recent microchips are more "universal" than the old ones used by the US and Canadian registries. My old mare has a microchip that has defied being read by anything except a Destron reader. We have tried all of the 'universal' readers on it as they became available, with no result.
