Well, I have to answer this one, even though I have my doubts about your reasons for asking these questions. The Mustang is a subject close to my heart. Over the past twelve years myself and my father have adopted 8 mustangs and raised colts from 6 of them. Four had colts by their side when we adopted them, two birthed (wild) colts after we brought them home. All of the colts were trained as gentle colts and broken to ride and work cattle. They are excellent horses. Two of the mustang mares we broke to ride, the rest have remained more or less wild but we give them a good home and let them go their own way. To answer most of your question, mustangs come in every imaginable color, from drab to beautiful. As to size it is about the same as regular horses. They come from a very diversified gene pool, so you find all sizes some small horses and some large ones. I have seen some that had some obvious draft horse breeding in them. They are very thin when you get them so their weight is generally less than you would find in the domesticated horse, but with proper care and feeding, they fill out well and look like regular horses. I would urge anyone with the room (on your place and in their heart) to contact the Bureau of Land Management
(BLM) and consider adopting one of these fascinating horses. They have many looking for a home. The mustangs are facing extinction if the population is not controlled, and if they don't find good homes for them. (Regardless of if old Josh gets a good grade or not).

i suggest that you go and either look some things up on the internet or go and read a book. what you are asking is a massive question as there are many many types of horses and ponies, many different sizes, weights, uses, colours and origins. for example I keep Shetland ponies, they are around 10hands and my smallest is 31 inches to the withers, Shetland ponies can be any colour really except cremelo, well the cannot be registered as cremelo. they are mainly used as pets and companions these days and as riding ponies for children and small adults, but once they were used to carry heavy loads around Shetland and also were used in the coal mines to pull the heavy carts. i think that you should go and find this out for yourself as you have no idea if the answers on this page are true of not. and finally "no" is spelt "know", invest in a book on grammer.

I suggest you go to the library and look up the info. That's a lot of info to need from this spot. Hope you're taking a spelling class at school
