Since all of you have participated and waited with anxiety for this colt to be born, and you fans also named him, I thought you might like an update. Baby Colton is three weeks old in these pictures and weighs 72 pounds! Kristel’s mini-horse forums insist that his sire is either a pony or even a full-sized horse! It’s a miracle that he was birthed okay. Colton is a beautiful bay (black mane, black tail, black stockings). Yes, I know! Where are those black legs? The horse forum folks say his baby hair will shed and then he will have those black bay legs.
Colton looks nothing like his mini-horse (pony) mother in conformation. He is almost as tall as she is and his legs are already much longer. He looks like a horse, through and through. And if his sire is truly a full-sized horse, then Colton will be able to easily carry Kristi on his back at age three. Enjoy his “baby book” picture gallery. And then scroll down for a fun 3-minute video. You’ve seen the first minute, but I added to it. Colton is full of high spirits!
Two more pictures. Here Colton is one week old and he is meeting the dwarf Nigerian goats. He thinks they are just his size to have a play day!
A fun “I’m getting bigger” timeline. After this week, Kristel can’t left Colton any longer to weigh him. He’s too heavy!
Wow!!! He is so cute!!
He’s grown so much! I can’t believe how fast he is already! Good going, Colton! 🙂
Just wondering, what’s Ross Ranch?
My daughter’s mini ranch in California. She lives near “Andi Country” so it’s really fun when I’m down there for half the year.
That’s really cool! 🙂
Wow he is soooo cute!
Awww he’s so cute. And he is getting big!🤩
So adorable!😍
Colton is getting so big! 😍 And I have to say, I like that buckskin Nigerian. I’ve been wanting a buckskin nigi for a long time now!
Is that your daughter holding him at the end?
Yep

He seems like such a sweet, playful little guy! My 4 daughters would be over the moon happy to have him for a pet. 🙂
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! He is so so so CUTE!!! <3
Can Mini Mae gallop? Colton is so fast! Also, it would be cool if your granddaughter could actually ride Colton!
I think I’ve seen her gallop before but I can’t remember. She’s a might fast trotter though!
Cool!
