Horses can be passed off as almost any age between the ages of 3ish and 12ish. The only sure way is to look at the teeth. From the age of 3 to 7a mark known as Galvanes Groove begins to run down the tooth However after the ages of between 7 and 9 the mark begins to disappear and 'old' teeth can start to look like young teeth again. Obviously only until the horse is really old and its teeth fall out. Having said all that it probably nothing to do with at all. I'll go now. |

From: Ebbie Years ago in my reckless youth I had a brother who had problems with just about everybody, not least with me. One day just as I finished telling my mother an event that my brother had told me about, he walked in. I appealed to him to tell her the story as he'd told it to me. He did- and at the end I turned to my mom with a flourish. And there you have it, folks, I proclaimed. Straight from the horse's ass. At least my mother thought it was funny. |
