Hey, I'm bored! Who wants to conformation critique my grade gelding? He's a good chunk Arabian, with some paint and some miscellaneous-- I'm pretty sure bird, because he keeps attempting to fly, lol.
Also, apologies for the pic, as he is A) not standing correctly (sorry), B) wearing that badly-fitting halter (I promise he doesn't wear it in the actual pasture or while riding) C) it's only as recent as this past winter and D) the background is all cluttered with snow and tack room and poo. My bad, people! I promise to get a better pic. if you ask.

I bought him because his conformation looked good for endurance, despite some flaws, what do you think?? I'm still practicing my conformation judging, so if you have any pics of your horse and want to share your judgments there too, please do!
Also, has anyone read Fuglyblog/Fugly Horse of the Day? http://fuglyblog.com/
I'm learning a ton there, and from reading so much about bad breeding on the blog, I sadly think my guy, although gorgeous in my eyes and luckier than some in the gene lottery, probably resulted from a "backyard breeder" looking for color. What do you think of the blog? Some people say she's just mean, I think she's pretty spot-on.
