Hey - my percheron/TB/Paint cross baby had a white muzzle when he was born and still does!! My Percheron makes weird noises all the time - our big joke is that if he is frustrated or worried he "cammels" you - sounds like the weird noise a cammel makes lol. I am still voting for horse! Here are the pics of Denali when he was a youngster.... Also - MANY belgian/Percheron cross drafts have white muzzles! grovestreet.com/PicPage.do?id=1024878 He is the one that the little belgian is scratching. it was really dark so his muzzle looks darker - but it was white! grovestreet.com/PicPage.do?id=521407grovestreet.com/PicPage.do?id=521401 |

LOL - Not sure on incubation for my kid - the mare would have been bred back when her previous foal(which I also had) was born during her foal heat - so that would have been in March/mid april - Denali foaled the last week of april. Also - how do we know for sure about gestation time?  ? lots of mares get bred way late in the season! Sara |

Either way - if she IS a mule, she is a very refined and elegant mule which tells me that the donkey/jack they used must be good - and that this little one will have alot more "mule" options in the future because of it.

Could it be gi-normous Trakehner ears? They are known for their distinctive long pointy ears. Here's a filly from the Trakehner breed registry:  |

Well, the voting certainly indicates a split decision. I guess we will know once the little one finds her voice.

Here's a close up of Odie the Mule's ears ... Odie belongs to Katie Moore/watermarkfarm ... hmmmm ... his ears seem proportionally quite a bit longer than PEC's filly ...  |

Perhaps she's one of those very rare mule hybrids, where a mule actually is fertile and actually makes another generation.
She is awfully cute.

It could be, but it is a little hard to tell. Our mule foal looked like a mule at birth. His ears were bigger. some horses just have big ears. I saw a arab baby born with nice big curved ears. We are all born diffrent LOL some with bigger ears then others.  The 2 picture she looks like a mule but the other ones she justs looks like a healthy filly. Also the face she dosn't have the face. My filly was also born with a diffrent colored muzzle and legs but she was a paint that aint. Pretty baby at any rate. We will have to wait and see. |

Ha-Ha Nanci, you beat me to it..........I was going to say,"how about naming her 'Radar', just because of Joe's filly".
