Aaron is a sorrel pony cross colt I got back in early February. His blind in one eye dam was at an auction. I outbid the meat buyer and afterwards her seller asked if I wanted to come get her colt. We think we was born in September or October 2008. He came to us unhandled and a little timid around humans. Aaron, shortly after we got him.

Second colt to come to our farm was Matt, a blue roan Quarter Horse. He came from a neighbors. I had no intention of getting another colt, but my neighbor needed hay, so I made a trade. He arrived mid March.
Here's Matt when he arrived. He had had a halter on and I believe he had been tied in a stall, but hadn't been handled otherwise.

A few days ago I went back to the place I got Matt from. And picked up three more yearlings as resale projects. Two of them had halters on. I think they may ha
ve been tied at some point, but not handled.Here's Ben, the other blue roan at his former home.

For those who notice, yes, there is no bedding where they are standing. Because they were just unloaded and are standing in the aisle of the quonset barn.
Edited because I tried to fix the pictures, but I obviously haven't figured that one out yet.
