New Haven Equine Registry

[Selsie Turner]

The New Haven Equine Registry lists all New Haven horses, ponies, donkeys, and mules, whether character-owned, NPC-owned, or community property. Originally containing 29 animals, the registry has swelled to nearly 200 with the addition of Rebekkah "Rocky" Johnson's stock, the 20 horses procured during the "June 2014" round-up, the Vanners and donkeys that came in with Tsuritsa Drobarnjac, the pony round-up on Assateague Island, the saddle horses and mules taken in trade for various services rendered to Edgewater Farm, and the mounts and pack animals that have arrived with newcomers.

If one of the horses, ponies, or mules on the list is yours and you have something to add about its color, height, personality, history, etc., I would be glad to update its equine "character sheet."

Finally, if you would like to adopt one or more of the community property animals, by all means! Selsie would be thrilled to hand its care over to you! -grins- Selsie's lesson horses are also available for "lease," with the understanding that they will continue to be used in her riding program when not in use by the lessee.

Nonsense derives his name from a conversation between Selsie and Manhattan in which Manhattan explained that she has always loved the look of paints because of the "nonsense patterns flung all over their coats." Nonsense is green broke and rather skittish, and Manhattan dares not ride him until he is further trained.

Height: 17.2 hh
Color: Medium bay
Markings: Wide blaze and four white stockings
Owner: Selsie Turner

Personality Traits: Maggie was born and raised on the Reid farm the spring after the dead rose and is one of only two horses to make it out alive when the farm was overrun.

Height: At least 17.2 hh - HUGE for a Thoroughbred
Color: Blue Roan
Markings: None

Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled 2009
Height: 15.3 hh.
Color: Pale Palomino
Markings: None
Owner: Dusty
Personality Traits: The half-brother of Willy Wonka, with none of the vices. Selsie occasionally used him for a lesson horse and planned to better train him when she had more time, but that never happened.

However, Nougat did not seem to enjoy lesson work, so Rocky gifted him to Dusty for Christmas.

Gender: Mare

Age: Foaled 2012
Height: 15.3 hh
Color: Bay
Markings: Dark bay with gorgeous lighter marbled shading on his face and barrel
Owner: Autumn Chase

Gifted by Edgewater Farms in repayment for Mary Lee’s midwife services.
Location: One of New Haven's two stables for privately owned horses.

Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled 2005
Height: 16 hh
Color: Leopard Appaloosa
Markings: Black spots strewn haphazard over a white coat

Location: The Annex stable for privately owned horses.

Selsie's English Riding School

Name: Blaze
Breed: Quarter Horse
Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled 2005
Height: 15.2 hh
Color: Chestnut
Markings: Wide blaze, left front and both rear socks. While not a true sorrel, Blaze does have a slightly lighter-colored mane and tail.
Owner: Lesson horse
Personality Traits: A Whimsical Equine rescue. EXTREMELY patient. Jericho once rode Blaze on a scouting mission and was forced to abandon him in Dover, only to find the gelding still waiting for him a day later! Selsie now uses him for a lesson horse.
Location: New Haven's riding stable.


Name: Chubby
Breed: Shetland pony
Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled 2003
Height: 9.2 hh (38")
Color: Black
Markings: None
Owner: Lesson pony
Personality Traits: Procured during the Pennsylvania round-up. As his name suggests, Chubby is an "easy keeper." Wide, chunky, and stolid, he is an ideal child's pony. Selsie brought the tiny little gelding home for the youngest New Haven children in her riding program. Chubby is New Haven's smallest equine, shorter even than the donkeys.
Location: New Haven's riding stable.


Name: Coffee
Breed: Quarter Horse
Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled 1998
Height: 15.3 hh
Color: Seal Brown
Markings: None

Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled 2010
Height: 15.2 hh
Color: Bright copper chestnut
Markings: Rear socks
Owner: Lesson horse/community property
Personality Traits: Came in with Callisto’s crew. A big mover and a little bit headstrong, Era requires a steady hand and a lot of leg. He will likely mellow with age, but for now he requires an experienced rider. Broken to the traces.
Location: New Haven's riding stable


Name: Dusty
Breed: Belgian
Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled approx. 2001
Height: 18 hh
Color: Mahogany bay typical of Belgians
Markings: Small blaze
Owner: Manhattan
Personality Traits: Finding him literally covered head to hoof in dust, caught beneath boards of what once was a small barn, earned this likable fellow his name. He may not always look the part, but Dusty is one big teddy bear of a horse, though he will give Shasta a good tussle for beer. If you're going to share, be sure that you have plenty! Dusty's favorite thing to do is play ball; take Pookie with you, toss in a beach ball, and watch the two beasts go at it. Don't expect a salvageable ball when they are done. Manhattan figures he was a child's pet.
Location: Used in Selsie's riding program but boarded in New Haven's small stable for privately owned horses due to his attachment to Shasta.


Name: George
Breed: Thoroughbred
Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled 1997
Height: 16.2 hh
Color: Chestnut
Markings: Circular star and thin detached stripe; left rear sock
Owner: Selsie's Christmas gift from Jackson Ramey
Personality Traits: An extremely mischievous horse with a penchant for hard candies, particularly spearmint and peppermint, George has soundness issues and can only be ridden by children, young teens, or extremely light adults.
Location: Selsie uses George in her riding program, though she boards him in New Haven's stable for privately owned horses due to his strong attachment to Reggie.


Name: Marshmallow Fluff
Barn Name: Fluff
Breed: American Warmblood
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 2001
Height: 16.1 hh
Color: Pinto
Markings: Predominately black with a small star and large snip; three high stockings and a right front pastern; and the gorgeous white tail, known as a "galustra plume," that inspired her name.
Owner: Lesson horse/community property
Personality Traits: Came in with Callisto’s crew. An elegant, floaty mover, Fluff is broken to the traces but has very little experience under saddle. Selsie is training the green mare until she is more suitable for riders but is also considering her for the breeding program.
Location: New Haven’s riding stable


Name: Mesala Chai
Barn Name:Chai
Breed: American Warmblood
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 2005
Height: 15.2 hh
Color: Mahogany bay
Markings: None

Name: Sea Foam
Breed: Assateague pony
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 2004
Height: 13.0 hh
Color: Cremello
Markings: None; a creamy white with a reddish-tinted mane and tail

Location: A makeshift shipping container “pony barn” in the back pasture of Selsie’s riding stable.


Name: Puzzle Box
Barn Name: Puzzle
Breed: American Warmblood
Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled 2009
Height: 15.2 hh
Color: Pinto
Markings: Black and white tobiano with a star shaped like a diamond solitaire and patches that look like interlocking puzzle pieces
Owner: Lesson horse/community property

Location: New Haven’s riding stable

www.portalofdreams.com/members/Thalia/New%20Haven/Horses/Seahorse.jpg [/img]
Name: Seahorse
Breed: Assateague pony
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 2011
Height: 14.0 hh
Color: Palomino pinto
Markings: A light, creamy palomino splashed over white, with a circular star on her forehead and a zig-zag stripe that turns into a pink snip on her nose.
Owner: Lesson pony
Personality Traits: When Selsie first laid eyes on this mare, she thought the adorable pinto was pregnant. As it turns out, Assateague horses can drink sea water without any ill effects, though it swells their sides. “Sand Dollar” promptly became “Seahorse,” and Selsie ended up with a lesson pony rather than a broodmare.
Location: A makeshift shipping container “pony barn” in the back pasture of Selsie’s riding stable.


Name: Shades of Gray
Barn Name: Shady
Breed: TB/QH cross
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 2003
Height: 16.0 hh
Color: Grullo (dark mousy-gray dun)
Markings: Irregular stripe
Owner: Lesson horse
Personality Traits: A Whimsical Equine rescue. Shady is extremely fast and seems to have some experience as a jumper. Despite being excellent under saddle, Selsie decided to allocate Shady for breeding stock due to her large size and hardy conformation; the other mares in the breeding program were a good deal smaller. After being bred twice and failing to "catch," Milo and Georgia decided to return Shady to Selsie's riding program, particularly since the "June 2014" round-up procured several more suitable mares.
Location: New Haven's riding stable.


Name: Telltale Heart
Barn Name: Heart
Breed: Oldenburg
Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled 2009
Height: 16.2 hh
Color: Black
Markings: Heart-shaped star
Owner: Lesson horse
Personality Traits: Procured from Edgewater Farm; taken in trade for the Tennesee Walker Gelding, Rule. Well started under saddle, Heart is a beautiful mover with a sweet, willing disposition. The gelding is Selsie's favorite new lesson horse and a fantastic dressage prospect.
Location: Selsie's Stable/Riding School


Name: Willy Wonka
Breed: Quarter Horse
Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled 2004
Height: 15.2 hh and WIDE
Color: Pale palomino in the winter; darker gold with dapples in the summer
Markings: Wide blaze and rear socks that are nearly invisible in the winter
Owner: Lesson horse
Personality Traits: Known to bite, a bit on the lazy side, Willy is never happier than when he's plowing through a field of fresh grass. Willy is an extremely "easy keeper," which is to say that he tends to be just a bit overweight. He gives a great ride, though, and this makes him a favorite with the older children of New Haven. Selsie uses him for a lesson horse. Willy was briefly ridden in the "June 2014" feral horse round-up by one of the New Haven teenagers.
Location: New Haven's riding stable.

Rocky's Western Riding Stable & Driving School

Name: Apple Sangria
Barn Name: Sangria
Breed: American Warmblood
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 2004
Height: 15.2 hh
Color: Light Bay
Markings: Star
Owner: Lesson horse/community property
Personality Traits: Came in with Callisto’s crew; a calm and docile mare with beautiful movement that is well broken to both the saddle and the traces.
Location: The Annex riding and driving stable


Name: Ashes to Ashes (pictured on the right)
Barn Name: Ashes
Breed: Appaloosa
Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled 2003
Height: 15.2 hh
Color: Lesson horse
Markings: Lacy gray "snowflake" spots, larger black spots, chestnut splotches, and black patches over a dark gray base coat
Owner: Community Property
Personality Traits: Ashes is the older and slightly shorter half-sibling of the unfortunately-named Geoffrey; the pair are practically inseparable. Taken in trade from Edgewater Farm for the far younger but more temperamental Napolean Complex (Swag). His laid-back temperament makes him an idea lesson horse in Rocky's Western riding stable.
Location: The Annex riding and driving stable.


Name: Chameleon
Breed: Paint/Quarter Horse
Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled 2007
Height: 15.3
Color: Chimera
Markings: Piebald with four mostly white legs typical of the sabino pattern; unusual bay and chestnut tri-color "Chimera" patterning which occurs when fraternal (non-identical) twin foals are fused into one embryo in utero, resulting in a single horse with two sets of DNA.
Owner: Lesson horse
Personality Traits: A gentle, well-trained saddle horse gifted by Edgewater Farms in repayment for Mary Lee’s midwife services.
Location: The Annex riding and driving stable


Name: Champagne
Barn Name - Bubbly
Breed: Haflinger
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 2005
Height: 13.3 hh
Color: Pale golden chestnut w/ flaxen mane & tail
Markings: Perfect star with tiny stripe
Owner: Driving pony
Personality Traits: Although Champagne and Chardonnay were rescued as a pair, it is doubtful they are siblings. Slightly taller and much stockier than Chardonnay, Champagne - aka "Bubbly" - also has a friskier personality. While she is green broke under saddle, her build and temperament make her more suited for pulling a pony cart. Rocky will use her to teach children how to drive.
Location: The makeshift shipping container “pony barn” in Rocky’s small back pasture.


Name: Cookies 'n' Cream
"Barn" Name: Oreo
Breed: Appaloosa
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 2001
Height: 15.3 hh.
Color: Leopard Appaloosa
Markings: Black and gray roan patterning on the forequarters which shades to black "points" on the legs and muzzle and becomes a white blanket with large black spots on the hindquarters; typical striped hooves, white scelera of the eye, and thin Appaloosa mane and tail, white streaked liberally with black.
Owner: Lesson horse
Personality Traits: Procured during the "June 2014" round-up, Oreo has the stoic disposition and "common sense" intelligence of many Appaloosas. While not particularly friendly, neither is she ill-tempered. Exceptionally willing under saddle, Oreo is equally suited for Western and English disciplines. Used by Selsie's English riding stable until she was replaced by Telltale Heart and given to Rocky's Western riding school. She spooks at garden hoses, presumably because she once had a frightening experience with a snake, which ensures that she has to be bathed using the scrub bucket method.
Location: The Annex riding and driving stable.


Name: Cultured Pearl
Barn Name: Pearl
Breed: American Warmblood
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 2008
Height: 15.2 hh
Color: Cremello
Markings: Blue eyes
Owner: Lesson horse/community property
Personality Traits: Came in with Callisto’s crew. Fully broken to the saddle and the traces, Pearl is extremely laid back and does whatever she is asked.
Location: The Annex riding & driving stable


Name: Darra
Breed: Shetland Pony
Gender: Mare
Age: 3
Height: 10 hh
Color: Bay & Chestnut "Chimera" Pinto
Markings: Double-thick bay AND chestnut base coat over which white patches have been splashed. This unusual tri-color "Chimera" patterning occurs when fraternal (non-identical) twin foals are fused into one embryo in utero, resulting in a single horse with two sets of DNA.
Owner: Lesson pony
Personality Traits: A sweet little mare who loves everyone. Great with kids!
Location: The makeshift shipping container “pony barn” in Rocky’s small back pasture.


Name: Dust to Dust
Barn Name: Jeffrey (pictured on the left)
Breed: Appaloosa
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 2004
Height: 15.3 hh
Color: Leopard Appaloosa
Markings: Jagged white spots over solid chestnut base
Owner: Lesson horse
Personality Traits: Don't let her nickname fool you; this odd-looking Appaloosa is very much a mare! With her strangely geometric zig-zag white streaks, Dust to Dust looks all the world like a horse in a giraffe suit, so when one of Edgewater Farm's children squealed "Jeffrey!" the name stuck. She is the younger half-sibling of Ashes to Ashes, and the pair are practically inseparable. Taken in trade for Chimera. While she may be bred next season to take advantage of her loud color and pleasant disposition, she is currently in use as a lesson horse in Rocky's Western riding stable.
Location: The Annex riding and driving stable.


Name: Freedom
Breed: Kiger Mustang
Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled 2000
Height: 14 hh
Color: Light bay dun
Markings: A white Mustang freeze brand on the left side of the neck, near the shoulder; black dorsal stripe
Owner: Lesson horse
Personality Traits: Freedom is extremely hardy with excellent stamina and hooves that will never need shoes. A bit flighty, likely because he grew up in the wild, he requires an experienced rider. He is clearly descended from Spanish stock, and his conformation resembles that of an Andalusian - rounded, compact, and powerful. He is a "gaited" and beautiful mover. Though technically the height of a large pony, Freedom is considered a horse due to breed and conformation; many Mustangs are stunted in height due to poor diet in their first few years of life. Though he was brought to the "June 2014" feral horse round-up as an alternate mount, Freedom was not used and shipped back to New Haven once Selsie met Rocky. Originally kept as an occasional mount for Selsie's riding program, Selsie decided to donate him to Rocky's Western riding program.
Location: The Annex riding and driving stable.


Name: Hoarfrost
Barn Name: Frost
Breed: Unregistered Thoroughbred
Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled 1994
Height: 16.3 hh
Color: White splashed over black
Markings: Piebald face and four white socks in addition to the splashed white across his body
Owner: Rebekkah "Rocky" Johnson
Personality Traits: Rocky rescued this gentle old man during the "June 2014" round-up, despite Selsie's initial misgivings. As it turned out, Frost immediately proved his worth when his willingness to come to Rocky's whistle convinced two Standardbred mares to follow suit and be caught, as well. Rocky met Frost pre-outbreak when she made vet calls to a Thoroughbred racing stable where he was used as a "pony" horse and companion animal. It was a great disappointment that his unusual coat color kept him from being entered in the Thoroughbred registry, because he was "hell on hooves" in his heyday and would likely have won some major purses. Frost is now used in Rocky's Western riding program.
Location: The Annex riding and driving stable.


Name: Lucy
Breed: Quarter Horse
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 1999
Height: 15.1 hh
Color: Liver chestnut
Markings: None, though she is noted for her extremely pretty, delicate face
Owner: Lesson horse
Personality Traits: A Whimsical Equine rescue. LOVES sweets. Will beg like a dog, sad eyes and all, then twitch her nose like she's talking the instant she gets candy, cookies, or cake. Originally used as a lesson horse in Selsie's riding program, Lucy played an integral role in the "June 2012" feral horse round-up, in which she was ridden by Selsie. Although it hurt Selsie's heart to hand the mare over to Rocky, Lucy is a better fit for Rocky's Western riding program, where she can put her cow-cutting and herding talents to best use.
Location: The Annex riding and driving stable.


Name: Nadua McAyne
Barn Name: Nadua
Breed: Shetland Pony Cross
Gender: Mare
Age: 3
Height: 9.3 hh
Color: Dalmatian (Leopard) Spotted
Markings: Silver undercoat with black spots
Owner: Lesson pony
Personality Traits: Easy-going; good temperament; hard-working. The spotted coat, not one of the colors recognized by Shetland breeders, indicates cross-breding somewhere back in Nadua's lineage, perhaps with a miniature British Spotted Pony, given Nadua's incredibly short stature.

Name: Pirate Woman Bay
Barn Name: Bandita
Breed: Standardbred
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 2000
Height: 16.1 hh
Color: Medium Bay
Markings: Right rear sock
Owner: Driving horse
Personality Traits: Procured during the "June 2014" round-up and named in honor of New Haven's piracy of the feral herds, Pirate Woman Bay was intended for breeding stock until Selsie discovered that the sturdy, long-bodied mare was a few years older than expected. Her original barn name was Pirate until Dusty started calling her Bandita. Extremely calm under harness, Bandita will be used as a driving school horse, so at least her acquisition wasn't a total loss!
Location: The Annex riding and driving stable.

Name: Sea Bean
Breed: Assateague pony
Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled 2001
Height: 13.1 hh
Color: Dark bay pinto
Markings: Wide blaze; evenly marked with patches of dark bay and white, with brown “freckles” inside the white patches on his sides
Owner: Lesson pony
Personality Traits: Selsie initially believed Sea Bean was a pregnant mare until little Caty Chase insisted, “S’not a GIRL! S’uh BOY!” Selsie practically turned herself upside down to look under the pony’s swollen barrel and put herself on Caty's eye-level, and sure enough – Sea Bean had a frank and beans. Considering the stallion was gentle enough for the children to climb all over him, and there were already three Assateague stallions on the compound, Rocky gelded Sea Bean and inherited a great lesson pony.

Age: Foaled 2010
Height: 14.2 hh

Markings: Black over white heterozygous tobiano
Owner: Tsuritsa Drobarjnac
Personality Traits: Arrived in New Haven with Tsuritsa Drobarjnac's menagerie of gypsy circus animals. One of a team of four Gypsy Vanners that pull Tsuritsa's vardo; trained to perform various circus tricks. "Pinkpink" gained her unusual nickname from her habit of eating the pink - and ONLY the pink - spangly costumes off the girls doing the bareback acrobatics, while they were on the sidelines waiting to perform, with… uncomfortable... results the couple of times she nibbled through certain key threads…
Location: Pasture board with turn-out shed on Annex lands.

Then the zombie apocalypse happened, and the gypsies were stuck with him and ended up needing him as a work animal, anyway. Buino is stolid and resilient though reluctant when introduced to new things.

Owner: Sophie Dubois
Personality Traits: Procured from the Mother Lode herd during the “June 2014” round-up, Night has the usual placid disposition of the Clydesdale breed. The mare is more or less Sophie's therapy animal, helping her to connect with something living and dependent upon her care. Although Night has been bred, she will be kept in the New Haven draft barn to be close to Sophie and will be used as a plow and saddle horse until the late stage of her pregnancy makes this unsafe.

Name: Obstiné Milèt
Barn Name: Stubby
Breed: Mule
Gender: Gelding
Age: Unknown - he's a rescue with no papers
Height: 14.3 hh.
Color: Appaloosa
Markings: Irregular spotting. Dense spotting over croup and hindquarters. White sclera. Striped hooves. Major scarring over croup/flanks/shoulders and more minor scarring on the face and neck.
Owner: Lucius Hastings
Personality Traits: Despite his name -- which, translated from the Haitian Kreol, means "Stubborn Mule" – Obstiné is an even-tempered and reliable animal. Though clearly battered at some point in its life, with visible scarring over the rump, hips, flanks, and shoulders, he is willing to work hard and gives little trouble 'round the place -- and he actually seems to like Luc. Their long trek cross-country seems to have taken any residue of 'stubborn' out of him, and Luc's name may be more affectionate than chiding. At any rate, the mule is certainly more stolid than annoying and put in his hours hauling and toting with Luc for the building of the earthbag/berm houses. He seems none the worse for wear from foraging in the woods behind the school. He is also un-shod, and the recommendation is for him to stay that way; since a mule's hoof is much harder than a horse's, shoeing can actually do some damage.

Extremely heavy-bodied, Legend should pass on hardiness to his offspring. While he is not vicious, Legend acts like a typical pushy stallion and must be handled with a chain lead.

Age: Foaled 2009
Height: 16.3 hh
Color: Black
Markings: Irregular zig-zag blaze, wide on his forehead and nose, thin down the length of his face. Rear white socks.
Owner: Selsie Turner
Personality Traits: Procured from the Mother Lode herd during the “June 2014” round-up, his name is a play on words; from the instant Selsie saw him, she was indeed "out after" this dark beauty. Judging from his conformation and profile, he appears to be a cross between two Warmblood breeds, possibly Canadian Sport Horse/Hanoverian or Oldenburg. Exceptionally well-mannered, he exudes an air of gentleness and wisdom quite unusual in such a young stallion. Selsie plans to work him extensively under saddle in addition to using him as a breeding stallion, though he will be housed in the stallion barn.

Height: 16.1 hh
Color: Chestnut
Markings: Blaze with a "notch" missing at the top
Owner: Isabella Reid, nee DuBois
Personality Traits: Tallboy was the late Travis Reid's prized possession which Bella credits for saving her life. True to his name, Tallboy is absolutely huge for a Quarter Horse; powerful and muscle-bound as well as towering, he "knocked zomkbies over like bowling pins" when he fled the overrun Reid farm with Bella on his back and Maggie in tow. He is known to cop an attitude, and he and Bella had to learn to co-exist on their long trek from Ohio to Delaware. However, Tallboy is all but fearless and an excellent early warning system when the dead are near.

Name: The Demon Horse a.k.a. Tinkerbell
Breed: Akhal-Teke
Gender: Stallion
Age: Foaled 2011
Height: 16.0 hh, although his light and slender "greyhound" build makes him appear far taller.
Color: Palomino with the characteristic Akhal-Teke “metallic bloom”
Markings: Wide blaze and four white stockings marred by barbed wire scars.
Owner: Breeding stock
Personality Traits: Don’t let the cutesy nickname “Tinkerbell” fool you. Although the New Haven tots decided he had been sprinkled with fairy dust, this statuesque golden beauty has more than earned his other moniker, The Demon Horse. Rescued from the raiders who used him for bait from the time he was a yearling, The Demon has a deep-seated hatred of all things on two legs and literally attempts to kill anyone who approaches him, even at the expense of his own personal safety. Edgewater gave the vicious stallion to New Haven in the hopes he could be rehabilitated.

Color: Black and White Pinto
Markings: Mostly white, with a black head marked by a perfect star-and-stripe and a black patch on her chest and each flank.
Owner: Broodmare
Personality Traits: Procured from the Mother Lode herd during the “June 2014” round-up. Selsie had grand aspirations of calling this gorgeous mare Piper until a New Haven child took one look at her and squealed “Snoopy!” and the far less elegant barn name stuck. Although Snoopy is a beautiful mover and fabulous under saddle, Selsie almost regretfully decided to take advantage of the mare’s remaining breeding years and handed her over to Georgia and Milo.
Location: Annex mare barns.


Name: New Haven's Phoenix
Barn Name: Phoenix
Breed: Arabian
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 2008
Height: 15.2 hh
Color: Liver chestnut with flaming red mane and tail
Markings: None
Owner: Charlie Johnson
Personality Traits: So dark-coated a liver chestnut that she is nearly black, her flaming strawberry-red mane and tail providing startling contrast, Phoenix is truly a striking mare and too beautiful not to be reserved for breeding stock. Despite her fiery appearance, she has a calm disposition for an Arabian.
Location: Annex mare barns.

Age: Foaled 2006
Height: 16 hh
Color: Rich mahogany bay

Location: Annex mare barns.


Name: Edgewater's Riverdance
Barn Name: Riverdance
Breed: Irish Thoroughbred
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 2008
Height: 16.2 hh
Color: Bay
Markings: Irregular blaze that runs straight down her face, then zig-zags over her right nostril
Owner: Breeding Stock
Personality Traits: In foal by Storm Cloud, the Thoroughbred stallion likewise procured from Edgewater Farm, Riverdance was taken in trade for Tiny Girl. Although elegant and finely boned, Riverdance's Irish Thoroughbred breeding gives her more of a hunter-jumper conformation than a racing build, which should make for hardy foals. She is a proud and aristocratic-looking mare that carries herself with an air of dignity. Despite her reserve - or perhaps because of it - she has excellent barn manners.
Location: Annex broodmare barns.


Name: New Haven’s Ruby Slippers
Barn Name Dot
Breed: Quarter Horse
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 2004
Height: 14.2 hh
Color: Blood Bay
Markings: Wide blaze
Owner: Broodmare

Location: A makeshift shipping container “pony barn” in one of the Annex broodmare pastures.


Name: New Haven’s Strawberry Shortcake
Barn Name: Shortcake or Shorty
Breed: Quarter Horse
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 2010
Height: 15.1 hh
Color: Red dun
Markings: Darker red mane and tail; classic dun dorsal stripe and "zebra" patterning on lower legs.
Owner: Breeding stock
Personality Traits: The lead mare of the first herd of feral horses Selsie spotted during the "June 2014" round-up, Shortcake's sweet name is an ironic contrast to her truly bitchy personality. After being tranquilized, an examination of Shortcake’s teeth revealed that she was only a four-year-old and had most likely received minimal handling and no saddle work before the outbreak. Shorty is rather long-bodied and blocky-headed, a throwback to more "old school" or foundation-stock Quarter Horses, and is clearly the result of intentional breeding. Tsuri has theorized that the mare's bitterness comes from losing a young foal to either zombies or raiders.
Location: Annex mare barns.

There are also plenty of turn-out sheds, some with enclosed stalls, others open within.

Crosses for "Spring 2016" Foals

It's breeding season, and Selsie and Rocky been busy weighing our land management needs against our increasing need for quality foals that will become saddle horses in the next few yeats. As follows are the crosses for the second batch of New Haven-born foals, due next spring:

PENDING!

[Selsie Turner]

Name: Chip - DECEASED
Breed: Pony of the Americas (POA)
Gender: Gelding
Age: 20-something
Height: 13.3hh
Color: Leopard Appaloosa
Markings: Brown spots on a white coat
Owner: Lesson horse
Personality Traits: Chip was lazy and grumpy, but a safe ride for the compound children. Selsie originally used him for a lesson mount but decided to donate him to Rocky so there would be at least one pony in the Western riding program. Unfortunately, old age caught up with Chip on October 30th, 2014, and he was humanely euthanized after he went down and refused to get up.


Name: Fyre - DECEASED
Breed: Paint
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 1996
Height: 15.3 hh
Color: Bright bay overo
Markings: Small white patches over a bright red bay coat, with a mostly white face.
Owner: Two Day
Personality Traits: Absolutely fearless, Fyre was one of the horses that came to New Haven with Rocky's crew following the "June 2014" round-up. Fyre's old bones gave out during the snows and rains of February "2015," and Rocky humanely euthanized her when she refused to stand one morning.


Name: Kahlua - DECEASED
Breed: Quarter Horse
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 1997
Height: 15.1 hh
Color: Seal Brown
Markings: None
Owner: Lesson horse
Personality Traits: Too old for safe breeding, this steady gal was practically bomb-proof and made a wonderful mount for older riders. Selsie used her for a lesson horse. Kahlua was briefly ridden in the "June 2014" feral horse round-up by one of the New Haven teenagers. Rocky humanely euthanized her due to soundness issues in February "2015."


Name: Latte - DECEASED
Breed: Quarter Horse
Gender: Stallion
Age: Foaled 2002
Height: 16 hh
Color: Pale Dunskin (Both a buckskin and a dun gene)
Markings: Dorsal stripe
Owner: Formerly owned by Wils (deceased)
Personality Traits: Latte was level-headed under pressure extremely difficult for any other riders but Wils and Two Day. The striking stallion arrived in New Haven with Rocky’s crew following the “June 2014” round-up and met a violent and mysterious demise in his paddock, where he was found dead and partially eaten.


Name: Louie - DECEASED
Breed: Standardbred
Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled 1997
Height: 16.2 hh
Color: Dark bay
Markings: Faint star; lush, wavy black mane and tail
Owner: Georgia (NPC)
Personality Traits: A Whimsical Equine rescue, and quite stocky for a Standardbred, Louie was very sweet and willing; almost nothing spooked him. Louie was briefly ridden by Milo, New Haven's breeding barn manager, during the "June 2014" feral horse round-up. Eventually arthritic knees and hocks made it difficult for Louie to walk comfortably, and Rocky humanely euthanized him in February "2015."

www.portalofdreams.com/members/Thalia/New%20Haven/Horses/LickitySplit.jpg [/img]
Name:Lickity-Split - DECEASED
Breed: Quarter Horse
Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled 2012
Height: 14.3 hh
Color: Bay
Markings: Zig-zag blaze ending in a mostly white muzzle; right front and both rear socks.
Owner: Community Property
Personality Traits: Gifted by Edgewater Farms in repayment for Mary Lee’s midwife services, Lickity-Split was destined to be one lightening-fast cow cutting horse. He disappeared from the Young Horse Annex one autumn day. Selsie theorizes that the Collins parents captured the well-mannered gelding and fed him to their undead daughter, hoping that no one would miss the rather nondescript-looking little horse.


Name: Misty - DECEASED
Breed: Section A Welsh
Gender: Mare
Age: 19
Height: 12.1 hh
Color: Gray
Markings: A pale dappled gray with a dark gray mane and tail
Owner: Lesson horse
Personality Traits: A truly sweet, tiny pony with a gorgeous little face, Misty was great for the New Haven tots. Selsie used her for a lesson mount until her sudden death of acute colic on October 30th, 2014, following a freak hurricane.


Name: Mocha - DECEASED
Breed: Quarter Horse
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 1998
Height: 16 hh
Color: Seal brown
Markings: Small white snip on the nose; both rear anklets; a thin but jagged white scar beneath the left front fetlock from gashing her front leg with her back hoof.
Owner: Lesson horse
Personality Traits: A tall and pushy mare, Mocha bossed most of the geldings around and had to be separated from Lucy, Shortcake, and Orchid, the other "boss mares." Selsie used her for a lesson horse, though Mocha was a bit headstrong under saddle and required a rider of medium-level experience. Mocha was briefly ridden in the "June 2014" feral horse round-up by one of the New Haven teenagers but was shipped back home when she was injured on the first day out. The damage was superficial, and although Mocha will forever bear a scar, she appeared to have no lasting soundness issues until the snows and rains of February "2015," when she was humanely euthanized by Rocky.


Name: New Haven's Nifty Girl - DECEASED
Barn Name: Nifty
Breed: Quarter Horse
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 2003
Height: 14.3 hh
Color: Light chestnut
Markings: Irregular stripe down her face, two rear socks
Owner: Broodmare
Personality Traits: A Whimsical Equine rescue. Small and lightly built. A bit head-shy and clearly the victim of past abuse, Nifty was a timid horse who preferred men. Unbeknownst to Selsie and Rocky when Nifty was selected for breeding, she had suffered a broken pelvis during her past abuse. This not only hid a twin foal form the ultrasound but made it impossible for her to deliver; Nifty and both foals died during the 2015 foaling season.


Name: Tui - DECEASED
Breed: Unknown
Gender: Gelding
Age: Unspecified
Height: 15 hh
Color: Brown
Markings: None
Owner: Mikaere Ratahi
Personality Traits: Mik had a love-hate relationship with his horse, who tended to be skittish when he needed it to be calm and neigh when he needed it to be quiet. Selsie never heard Mik call Tui anything other than Horse or Pain in the Ass! Note: No information was ever given on this horse, so I invented generic stats. Eventually, lameness became an issue with this older horse, and Rocky humanely euthanized him in February "2015."

[Selsie Turner]

Name: Chimera
Breed: Quarter Horse
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 2003
Height: 15.2 hh
Color: Unusual bay roan
Markings: From a distance, this mare appears to be a dark flea-bitten gray with a black mane and tail and two white rear socks; up close, the gray fades to a light reddish-colored head, which technically makes the mare a bay roan, though her gray coat makes her look more like a blue roan.
Owner: Traded to Edgewater Farm.
Personality Traits: Named after the mythological creature known for its changeable appearance, Chimera is an extremely affectionate animal in the pasture but flighty under saddle and turns into a basket-case at the least scent of the infected or undead.


Name: Mary
Breed: Belgian
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 2004
Height: 17.1 hh
Color: Light Sorrel
Markings: Irregular stripe, buff-colored muzzle, legs, and underbelly
Owner: Traded to Edgewater Farm.
Personality Traits: Procured during the Pennsylvania round-up. A pretty, sweet-tempered mare who is extremely well broken to harness but not saddle broken.


Name: Napoleon Complex
Barn Name: Swag
Breed: Arabian
Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled 2009
Height: 14.2 hh
Color: Dark bay
Markings: Wide blaze and four white socks nearly to the knees � flashy with LOTS of chrome!
Owner: Traded to Edgewater Farm.
Personality Traits: The name says it all! Acquired during the "June 2014" round-up, Swag is arrogant, hot-headed, and hard to handle. Although saddle-broken just prior to the outbreak, he is quite green and has forgotten almost all he learned about barn manners. Swag requires a firm, experienced rider with the patience of Job! (Interestingly enough, he was later traded to a man named Job.) That said, he'll probably turn into a pretty cool horse once he mellows with age.


Name: New Haven’s Make Mine 24 Karet
Barn Name: Carrot
Breed: Tennessee Walker
Gender: Stallion
Age: Foaled 2006
Height: 16 hh

Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 2008
Height: 13.3 hh
Color: Classic Champagne

Barn Name: Goldie
Breed: Tennessee Walker
Gender: Filly
Age: Foaled May 2014
Height: 13.1 hh and growing
Color: Gold Ivory Champagne
Markings: N/A
Owner: Traded to Edgewater Farm.
Personality Traits: By Make Mine Gold, out of Make Mine Silver. Make Mine Silver and Gold is nearly the height of her dam already and is expected to top out at 15 hh. Goldie was only a few weeks old when Rocky met Selsie during the “June 2014” and was traded to Edgewater farms upon her weaning.


Name: New Haven’s Sandstorm
Barn Name: Sandstorm
Breed: Arabian
Gender: Colt
Age: Foaled May 2014
Height: 13.3 hh and growing
Color: Possibly primitive bay - too young to tell!
Markings: N/A
Owner: Traded to Edgewater Farm.

Name: Remember the Golden Rule
Barn Name: Rule
Breed: Tennessee Walker
Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled 2007
Height: 15.2
Color: Amber Ivory Champagne
Markings: Pale patch across the shoulders
Owner: Traded to Edgewater Farm.

[Selsie Turner]

Gender: Gelding
Age: Foaled 2003
Height: 18 hh
Color: Dark chestnut with flaxen mane and tail
Markings: None
Owner: Jackson Ramey
Personality Traits: A Whimsical Equine rescue. Much like a full-grown St. Bernard that thinks it’s still a puppy, Boss will head-butt you when he wants his ears scratched, then look really surprised to find you on the ground...
Location: Currently being ridden by Jackson Ramey on cross-country adventures.



Name: Chardonnay
Breed: Haflinger
Gender: Mare
Age: Foaled 2006
Height: 13.2 hh
Color: Golden chestnut w/ flaxen mane & tail
Markings: Thin stripe
Owner: Lesson pony
Personality Traits: An even-tempered, hardy draft pony that is equally suited for working under saddle and pulling a cart, she is one of those rare animals that tailors its temperament to the experience level of the rider.

Location: Currently being used as a cart pony to haul Jackson Ramey's provisions.

Location: Unknown; with Cassidy Corrigan
