My ponies



I have got two ponies. There names are AtuTahi and Libby. Libby is AtuTahi's foal. She Was born a strawberry roan and is now a chestnut. Atu Tahi is a dark dapple grey colour. Atu is 13 hands high and Libby is 10 hands high. Atu isn't broken in yet meaning she isn't rideable. I love my poines and I will get more in the future. 

Some interesting facts about horses. 
- poines grow up to thirteen and a half hands. Any thing bigger is a horse.
- there is a triangular shape at the bottom of the hoof called a frog.
- the smallest ponies are Shetland poines. They can grow up to six hands high.
- there are four speeds that a horse can do. They can walk, trot, canter and gallop. A trot is like a jog for a horse. A canter is a run for a horse. And a gallop is sprinting for a horse.
