THIS POST HAS BEEN EDITED (11/10/24), TO REFLECT GINGER'S CURRENT STATUS AND PRICE:

Ikes Sweet Quake MPH,
aka “Ginger”, is a 2020 registered Appaloosa mare, started at the University of Findlay in the fall of 2023. She was in consistent training through the beginning of August, 2024. Selling as a project horse that can really go in any direction. Seems to be very “cowy” and can be quick on her feet. Ginger may not be finished in her training, but she is safe. No rear, buck, bolt. No vices. Up to date on all vaccines, teeth, and wormer.
Has been trail ridden this summer; goes through water, over bridges, and through obstacles;
has been ridden English. Started in showmanship; lots of stop and could excel in the discipline Reining. Quiet on the ground; very good for the farrier.

Ginger is being sold as a PROJECT horse so therefore, I would not recommend her for a beginner, but there is no doubt she could be ridden by one in the future. She is currently barefoot, but I think shoeing would benefit her while trail riding.

Pre-purchase exam can be done at buyers expense and shipping can be arranged to anywhere, at buyers expense.
Currently priced at $8,500 for quick sale before winter sets in; she is one of our most marketable and we just have too many mouths to feed.

Located in SW Ohio. Videos as of 6/28.

Is your horse’s nighttime vision better than your daytime vision?

When comparing equine vision to human vision, the horse has a smaller visible spectrum (see image) which means they see a smaller range of colors than we do. However, horses have a structure in the back of their eye—called the tapetum lucidum—that humans do not have. This enhances vision in low light conditions and allows a horse to see better in the dark than a human does. However, reflections from the tapetum lucidum can also blur images and lead to poor depth perception at night.

Dilation of the pupil allows all species to see better in the dark. This process takes longer in a horse (45 minutes) than it does in humans (25 minutes). So when a horse is asked to do something in a dark environment, it’s important to allow their vision proper time to fully accommodate.

Overall, the nighttime vision of a horse is better than the nighttime vision of a human. However, the horse’s nighttime vision is NOT better than the daytime vision of a human. Anytime you are asking your horse to function in a dim light situation, give them time to adjust. And if they are fearful, be patient and try to understand how things look from their perspective!
