In Germany, they have a yearling zebra-horse cross filly. She is a pretty paint with stripes. Take a look: www.yahoo.com |

are they like mules, they can't breed?
what's different about them compared to horses? anything special that might make someone want one besides just being cool?

HAve a look at my post, "You have to see this" under "Fun Stuff". The direct link has a lot of info about the genetics.

I've seen the zebra/horse cross for sale now and then- I read they are fertile about as often as a mule... but zebra's aren't particularly trainable from everything I've read from people who train them for circus type work- and mules have their moments - not sure I'd want one, but they look cool. I'd caution anyone who wants one to try training a burro first, because I think they're harder.
