Lol. I used to get the same only I don't why, my Dun gelding was all horse, quarter, halflinger cross. But he had leg bars almost to his stifle. Question, have you seen any unusual "things" up in those mountains?
I personally wouldn't care what she was called. Her coloring and conformation are very ascetically pleasing. The added fact of her versatility and usability in those high mountain areas are a bonus. Damn fine animal.
Haha! Yeah, we love it when people ASK what she is, but it gets a little old when people TELL us she’s not a mule lol Thanks for watching and taking time to leave a nice comment! 😊
I love all Equines and especially Duns. Reata is a beautiful and gentle soul. I fell in love with a Dun Icelandic Horse(pony) when I visited that Island decades ago. When I did American Fur Trade Rendezvous as a Mountain Man for 25 years, it was always awesome to see the different kinds of horses and mules fellow re-enactors would bring with them. Appaloosas, Buckskins with donkey stripes and leg stripes, Pintos and Bays; all the pretty little horses. The only mules I saw were plain black mules hitched to an open wagon. And once in Wyoming a guy had a pair of Norwegian Fyord Horses hitched to a covered wagon. They were so beautiful.
Man, that sounds like such an awesome experience! I bet that was a fun group of people! 😊 And those Icelandic ponies seem so cool! We’ve never been around them, but from what I’ve seen, they’re neat animals.
I love mules. Here in Brazil there was a profession called "tropeiro", which was kinda like the primitive version of a truck driver, a tropeiro consists in guiding a "tropa" (or troop), a pack of mules that carry heavy charges across the entire country, navigating trough small trails and rough terrain, sometimes traveling months and months inside the "sertões" (brazil countryside). This was one of the most import jobs on the construction of Brazil and was very popular in some parts till the 80s. My grandpa was a Tropeiro and he travelled cross country to many places, I remember the last animals of his troops who remained with him doing small jobs like carrying wood. One thing that hooks me was the unique style of clothing of both tropeiro and his animals, the tropeiro using a cowboy like costume with a larger hat and a long coat to sleep on the road and the animals being decorated with crowns, metal trinkets, bells, silk stripes and etc, something that I think as a reminscent of the extravagant renascence/medieval clothing of Portugal. As a kid I grow a fine admiration by that animals and that profession. I learn to mount and ride in a mule, and I have been breeding this animals for hobby and profit in the last few years. An special breed here is with a Mangalarga mare, which is an extremely appreciated saddle horse breed. The combination creates an animal that can carry you the entire day with resilience and swifitness. But there are other breedings to serve another purposes, the criativity is the limit. The downside for me is the limited stamina and agility when it comes to deal with cattle in open field and sometimes the ilogical temperament, but nothing is perfect. To deal with milk producer cows is the best animal ever. And they put some fight against nelore cattle (most common cattle breed, but EXTREMELY mad mfs) in a more closed field or in a large number of animals. Once one of my working mules just beat the shit out of 3 angered oxes (like a policeman with a shitty personal life descounting frustration into shoplifters metheads) and saved me from being absolutely stomped. You have an awesome animal! Take good care of her
This is the best comment we’ve ever received! I loved hearing the history of the tropieros and your grandpa, and then the last sentence made me laugh out loud! 😂🙌🏼 I bet your grandfather had some amazing experiences with his mules and it’s awesome to hear that you’re breeding mules of your own. They’re awesome animals, and it sounds like you really appreciate them 😊 Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to leave such an awesome comment. I really enjoyed it 😊
@@MTN_BUILT thank you guys for the awesome content! I'n currently watching all the videos now. I appreciate the love of the american people for horses and how we all are carrying a tradition that seems not to fit more in this crazy world. Thank you for the kindness!
Don't know why your video came across my feed. I know nothing about equines. But I enjoyed it very much. Your explanations and the shots of the country. Absolutely gorgeous. Reata, too.
Years ago my ex and I had a string of horses we used like your back country pics. We had one that was a bay, no white on him. He showed some stripes in his legs and his feet were unique. Hind feet are narrow on a horse with the front being rounder, well all four of his were narrow. Pretty sure he had been a mustang, he had a beautiful head, short neck and kinda straight up and down sides, and a huge bushy broom tail. Nice video
That sounds like a beautiful horse! Thats interesting what you’re saying about his feet… that’s kind of similar to how our mule’s feet are shaped. Sounds like a really neat horse 😊 Thanks for watching and taking time to leave such an interesting comment!
Random Okie farms had a Zeedonk, it was a little stud colt. mother was the donkey and father was a zebra. Prettiest thing I ever saw, stripes all over. It was quite wild and hard to control though
That’s super cool! I’ve seen pictures of some that are super pretty and fairly decent size, but the only ones I’ve seen in real life have been about the size of a goat lol Were the hinnies you knew big enough to ride?
@@MTN_BUILT haaa. Weird . Yeah 14 hands or more. Only difference was a bit finer head and smaller ears by a fraction. The one , Buddy, ended up having issues with letting people bridle him which had nothing to do with his hinnyness! So he got a bad rap. He was cute. Just fine on the trail. Poor guy probably had tooth issues or something. They used double twisted snaffles. They just aren't common. Maybe the ones you saw were mini parents or a pony stud and standard donk.??
Hahaha! Thanks for watching and for the kind words. I’m living proof that you can get along with them without being very smart lol you definitely need to be patient though! 😊
Thank you!! 😊 She really is a looker and we’re so thankful we have her! I agree about mules! We never want to go fast, and we ride in the mountains, so they’re perfect for us! 😊🙌🏼
Oh wow! I was going to say she looked like a mule, but the leg stripes were really throwing me off. I have seen some horses with a few leg stripes, but nothing that prominent or flashy. She is beautiful!
Haha you had it right! 😁🙌🏼 But yeah, her striping is really pronounced! She’s our dream mule, and we’re so thankful we have her 😊🙏🏼 Thanks for watching and for the kind words!
I have an Argentinian Criollo, bred in Germany and imported by me to UK. She is dun, has the dorsal stripe and striped legs like a zebra but not as strong as your Reata. She's probably one of the only Criollo in the UK and surprises everyone who thinks she looks like a Przewalski wild horse.
Thank you for sharing such a gem! Beautiful markings and great confirmation and refinement very lovely girl. I rose mules across Gettysburg Battlefield as a wrangler giving rides and have such great respect for them.
I got cut off.....I knew a couple Hinnies that were cool. Seems like they just aren't around much. Story i heard was some dude bred a bunch to race thinking they would be fast cuz if horse dad but the donkey mom taught them to save their energy so even though they had a racehorse head they had the sticky feet of their donkey mama. Haaaaa. I like them. If someone was a great donkey person they'd do great with a hinny. But they are each individuals. Cute and special
Reata is gorgeous, and she seems so calm and intelligent. Beautiful video! Living life the way you do, traveling and riding your animals in all of those places, must be truly magical.
Thank you so much! Yes, we’re very fortunate to get to have our little herd and live life the way we do 😊🙏🏼 Thanks so much for watching and for taking time to leave such a nice comment!
We learned from a friend in BC, who worked with forestry crews in bc's mountains, a lot about mules, and met a few, and mule owners. They seem to be, in daily, practical use, significantly better to ride and "own", than a horse. The owners we met had real respect for their long-eared "partners"!
Haha yeah, mules are amazing! We’re so thankful for the three we have 😊🙏🏼 they definitely work their way into your heart if you’ve had them a while… they can have really big, fun personalities 😊
Reata is such a lovely lady. Whilst my own experiences with mules are limited to only a few animals, they always struck me are good companions that were also switched on cognitively.
Shes a beautiful mule ive always assumed she was a mule but i never knew the reasoning behind her "pinstripes" 😂 thanks for sharing the info and great video as always!
Thank you! Yeah, most people know she’s a mule right away, but SOME people feel the need to inform us that we’re wrong and she’s a zonkey lol 🤦🏻♂️ Now we have a little video to refer them to 😊
Oh that’s awesome!! I’ve heard there are some nice, big hinnies, and it sounds like yours was probably like that 😊 I’ve never seen one big enough to ride. I don’t think they’re very popular out here in the western US, so I don’t have a very big sample size to look at lol Did you breed yours like that on purpose?
@@MTN_BUILT I'm in Arizona, I doubt anyone breads them on purpose. She finished at 14-3 hands at around 4 years old, slow to mature but long lived. We roped off her, led cattle out of the Bradshaw mountains with her. A bit more horse than donkey to her, ears almost horse size. Not real fast but strong and sure footed in the rough country, smart and gentle unless she was in heat . . . Then she got nippy and ornery, not mean but dangerously playful.
Man that sounds like such a cool animal! I would’ve loved to see her. Too bad she got a little too ornery as she aged… I wonder if that’s common for them.
@@MTN_BUILT Not when she aged, when she was in heat. They can't reproduce but they still have that time of the month. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures of her, the few I had were lost in 2001 when my house burned.
@@andyfields3248 oh I got ya! My mule has really bad heat cycles too actually… way worse than our mare and other molly for some reason. That stinks about the house fire. It’s a bummer to lose pictures, but I’m sure that was the least of your concerns! 🙁
Thank you!! As a fervent Louis L'Amour fan, I alwsys wondered about 'zebra dun' and 'lineback dun'. Grullas are easy to visualize, though. Give your critters a good wither scratching for me...sure miss our Belgians.
Thank you so much for watching and leaving such a nice comment! I’m glad it helped you visualize what Louis L’Amour was writing about. Thats pretty cool 😊 We’ll give them a scratch from a fellow horse-person 😊👍🏼
Reata is a gorgeous girl, her colours, eyes, are stand alone: she seems to have a beautiful temperament, but like all of us, she probably has some not so good days to. I sure love the country side, green fresh and clean. Reata must have some amazing adventures.
You’re exactly right! She’s an awesome mule, and we’re so thankful to have her, but she’s not perfect lol usually the bad moments don’t end up on film though! Thanks for watching and taking time to leave such a nice comment 😊
Man, I miss growing up/living in Idaho just because of the camping and outdoors stuff. It's pretty there. I've lived in an isolated piece of property with historical value up the Salmon River, only accessible by helicopter and jet boat. It can get crazy out there. I want to move back so bad.... This looks so fun. So jealous, I want horses. I'm gonna sub! So, at least I can live vicariously through you, lol.
We’re SO THANKFUL that we get to live here. It’s just a perfect fit for us 😊🙏🏼 That place sounds amazing! That country between Salmon and Riggins is some of the coolest, most wild country in the lower 48! What an amazing experience it must have been to get to live there. Were you working for an outfitter?
Mules are my favorite equine. They may not run the fastest, or jump the highest. But they will follow you through thick and thin, through ice and rain. They are majestic animals in their own right and have helped us humans achive great, GREAT things.
You’re so right! They’re our favorite animal too! They’re incredible partners in the mountains, and they can have really fun personalities too 😊 We’re super thankful that we have ours! 🙏🏼
@@kraymississippi4388 we’ll definitely try! It could be fun when we have longer videos and more viewers 😊 It would be pretty cool for us to get to interact live with viewers
I learned to ride Horses as a kid, in the 70sand on Vacation in Cook’s Forest in Pennsylvania, I got to ride a Mule! They are Smart, Cute, and you could tell the people who owned them adored their Horses and Mule like Family! After the Ride everyone got to Relax even the Horses and Mule for a Good While before the next visitors showed up. Always remembered that. Great Times! This was in the 80’s.
That’s so cool! I love it when people who lead trail rides take such good care of their animals 😊 And that’s cool that you still enjoy that memory from such a long time ago!
I have always considered the best trait in mules to be their smooth gait. Much less bouncy than a horse, which I suppose is why some people refer to them as "Cadillac" mules. In any case, Reata is truly beautiful. Lucky you!
Yeah! Our white mule is super smooth at all gaits! So nice to ride 😊 this dun mule is really nice to ride at a walk, but pretty choppy at faster gaits lol Thanks for watching and for the kind words! We’re so thankful for our little herd 😊🙏🏼
She's beautiful, I think the stripes come from something like Highland ponies which also have the leg stripes and dorsal stripes, so shes a mule. It could be a trait in either any horse parent or more likely from the father as striping is common in all Ass species. I was going to also say that Dun is one of the more common colours of Highland pony and can occur in almost any breed.
Yep! It’s the primitive dun gene coming through. Donkeys have a lot of it and we are guessing her mom must have too. We didn’t ever see her mom since we bought Reata when she was 5 year old, but we do know her mom was a quarter horse
The answer to her species made me definitely feel smarter! So glad my thoughts on what she was being correct! The stripes did puzzle me but i also knew stripes weren't only due to zebra bloodlines either, and assumed it must be some gene causing for the uniqueness of their stripes! I learned quite a lot thanks to your video, and feel proud i kept to my original thoughts when my family tried to convince me it was a zorse/zonkey. Lol
Haha nice work! Yeah, the stripes throw a lot of people for a loop! It was fun to sit down and look at a bunch of our footage and put together a video about duns 😊 thanks for watching and leaving a fun comment. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
Great markings. She looks like some sort of Pleistocene equine -- like what you might have seen in N. America prior to the extinction of most of the Pleistocene megafauna Mules are awesome. So strong and smart.
I always get confused when I've heard of people referring to her as a one of the zebra crosses because anyone who's been around a variety of done horses has seen the occasional one that has extensive zebra markings on the lower legs🤷♀️ sometimes people just need to stop and think a little bit more. Either way she's gorgeous girl and people do seem to endlessly need education about long ears so thanks for continually spreading that education😊
lol we do too! We love it when people ASK what she is, but when people TELL us she’s not a mule, it gets old lol 😂 Thanks for watching and taking time to leave a nice comment! 😊
Mules are also fierce protectors. Many years ago a story circulated of how 2 mules stomped a cougar. The riders and the mules were unharmed. Mules have also been used in dressage. Smart, talented and beautiful.
That’s crazy! I think I remember seeing a picture of that 😊 That’s pretty cool that mules are allowed in dressage competitions… I would think the braying would get on people’s nerves lol
I was going to say it was the Dunn in her, but he beat me to it. I’ve ridden a lot of dark Dunn horses with leg stripes or “ tiger legs”. Red lineback dunns tend to have them less often. Hers are some of the most pronounced I’ve ever seen. Very pretty mule !
Thank you 😊 Yeah, most people know right of the bat that she’s a mule, but we still get told (quite often) in the comment section that we don’t know what kind of animal she is and she’s actually a zonkey, zorse, etc lol 🤦🏻♂️
Beautiful I love mules I have a print of a pair of harnessed mules over my fireplace. My realitives in northern Tennessee used them when I was a boy . Thank you by Will
That’s so cool! Those old working mules really built a lot of America. And that’s super cool that your family used them in Tennessee. They’re pretty special animals 😊 Thanks for taking time to watch and leave such a nice comment. 😊
She is the most beautiful mule that I've ever seen. I've always loved the duns especially when they have the bars whether it be on a horse or a mule. I haven't loved every mule I've come across, but some have been absolutely unforgettable with their unique personalities and dispositions, both wonderful and sometimes not so wonderful (just like horses and every other animal).
Your spot on about their personalities varying depending on the individual. Ours are all different, but they’re all really good animals. And I love duns too! They’re so pretty 😊
Oh man, we feel so blessed to live this life 😊🙏🏼 I hope you can as well! Just a few years ago, it seemed like we would never get to this point. Hopefully things come together for you to live a life you love! 🙏🏼😊
My sister had a zebra buckskin. Stripes on legs, line back, dorsal stripes and even spider webbing around his face. Pretty boy. Old cowboys were superstitious about those stripes... Probably due to the wild look. "Line down the back bronc will kill you Jack". It's part of an old cowboy poem about coat colors and markings.
That sounds like a beautiful horse! 😊 And that superstition is common with mules too… I wonder if it partially comes from people choosing an equine ONLY for their looks, and maybe disposition gets overlooked too often?
Amazing! Reata is so pretty! Cobwebbing on the face is also one such feature that may appear on dun, and it also follows the same pattern as zebra's forehead stripes! It is likely that the gene that makes stripes on zebras is a very modified dun and we have the pleasure to see it in so many diverse expressions from extant equines. And when it comes to zebra hybrids, unlike zebra stripes, the hybrid's stripes often 'fumble around' at the rump and kidney area, making this interesting grainy pattern. Onagers are generally known to not have leg stripes, but you sometimes see them with striped legs too :)
Thank you! 😊🙏🏼 it would be so cool to see a fun with the cobwebbing on the face! I don’t think I’ve seen one like that yet. That’s super interesting that zebra hybrids lose the solid striping pattern around the hip!
As someone who has fought Tiger Musky for my entire life i can attest to the reality of Hybrid Vigor. Those suckers eat like pike and fight like monster muskie. Cool to see how it works in the equine world!
A beauty. Is her mane naturally roached or do you trim it? I have always loved dun horses, didnt know it was an ancient gene. In fact, I just saw one today in a field with all bays. It stood out like a ray of light against the grass. Beautiful.
Thank you 😊 We trim all our mule’s manes because they don’t grow long and pretty like a horse’s mane does… if you don’t trim them, they usually just get to an awkward, half-flopped-over length. We love duns too! They’re just so striking 😊
Your animals are beautiful. Love her markings but I love the white mule as well. I've never been around a mule but I think if I was gonna buy something to ride I would get a mule.
Some interesting remarks: I live in a South Africa. Zebra’s are common where I live. They are wild but unfortunately not free roaming any more since they don’t jump cattle fences. Zonkey’s are a very common occurrence here despite relative low numbers of donkeys here. I have never seen a Zorse in South Africa bespite many horses in our area. Donkeys and zebra’s very quickly herd together, whereas horses don’t. Zebra stallion’s make formidabele fighters and will win a fight against the largest horse stallion. Zebra’s are always fat, irrespective of the condition of the grazing. Zebra’s can be asymptomatic carriers of African Horse Sickness. The Afrikaans name for a hinny is directly translated a “butterhead”.
In Britain a zebra was given to Queen Charlotte (married to king George III), but there wasn’t any other zebra to breed it with so she ordered men to paint the rear end of a donkey with stripes and it work! Just a historical fact about these lovely equine animals ❤️
She is beautiful! I love the dun gene. We had a sooty buckskin and he had zebra stripes on his legs, so horses can have that, too. Has anyone looked up onagers? They are amazing wild primitive asses found in Iran. Their coloring is beautiful.
Ah! You got me. She is beautiful. I have 3, but none are duns. Mine are black, strawberry roan & black/brown w 4 white stockings. They are a lot smarter than horses.
To be honest I just thought it was a mule with leg baring. I use to have a thoroughbred that had a dorsal stripe and and leg baring and one that had large bird catcher spots and an Arabian with a blood mark on his shoulder and a warmblood with ermine spots. I love horse colour and genetics it's so interesting!
Wow! That’s so cool! Sounds like you’ve had a lot of flashy horses 😊 If everyone knew what you do, we wouldn’t have even made this video lol I don’t even know what blood marks or ermine spots are 😊
Hahaha this video was mostly just so we had something to refer folks to when they tell us we don’t know what kind of animal she is 🤣 Now I can just send a link to everyone who tells us she’s a zorse or zonkey lol
We’re so thankful we have her. 🙏🏼 We love all our mules, but it’s fun to have an extra pretty one also 😊 We loooove our dubs! We’re hoping to have a mule baby out of our dun horse, Timber in a year or two 😊

She really does! 😊 We are SO thankful for her 🙏🏼

Oh wow! I was going to say she looked like a mule, but the leg stripes were really throwing me off. I have seen some horses with a few leg stripes, but nothing that prominent or flashy. She is beautiful!
Haha you had it right! 😁🙌🏼 But yeah, her striping is really pronounced! She’s our dream mule, and we’re so thankful we have her 😊🙏🏼
Thanks for watching and for the kind words!
she is gentle and calm natured, clearly no trace of zebra
Haha that’s a good point 😊
I have an Argentinian Criollo, bred in Germany and imported by me to UK. She is dun, has the dorsal stripe and striped legs like a zebra but not as strong as your Reata. She's probably one of the only Criollo in the UK and surprises everyone who thinks she looks like a Przewalski wild horse.
Wow! That’s super cool! I just looked them up and they’re beautiful 😊 It sounds like you have an amazing horse!
Thank you for sharing such a gem! Beautiful markings and great confirmation and refinement very lovely girl. I rose mules across Gettysburg Battlefield as a wrangler giving rides and have such great respect for them.
Thank you so much 😊 We’re so thankful for her 🙏🏼 That sounds like an amazing experience! What a cool way to experience a historic place
If you ever get a chance go with your mules and horses.
@@madisonknight5807 that would be awesome! We live in Idaho, so it’d be a long trip, but that would be a super cool experience!
Thank you I learned a lot didn't know anything about the subject
Awesome! Thank you for watching and taking time to leave a nice comment! 😊
In my country Portugal, We have one of the most primitive breeds of horse, the Sorraia, and they also have the zebra strippes on the legs.
Oh that’s so cool! I’ll have to look them up! 😊 Thank you for sharing
I got cut off.....I knew a couple Hinnies that were cool. Seems like they just aren't around much. Story i heard was some dude bred a bunch to race thinking they would be fast cuz if horse dad but the donkey mom taught them to save their energy so even though they had a racehorse head they had the sticky feet of their donkey mama. Haaaaa. I like them. If someone was a great donkey person they'd do great with a hinny. But they are each individuals. Cute and special
Hahaha!! That’s so funny! 😂 🤣🙌🏼
Seeing her is like going back in time! Beautiful!
Thank you! We’re so thankful for her 😊🙏🏼
Reata is gorgeous, and she seems so calm and intelligent. Beautiful video! Living life the way you do, traveling and riding your animals in all of those places, must be truly magical.
Thank you so much! Yes, we’re very fortunate to get to have our little herd and live life the way we do 😊🙏🏼
Thanks so much for watching and for taking time to leave such a nice comment!
We learned from a friend in BC, who worked with forestry crews in bc's mountains, a lot about mules, and met a few, and mule owners. They seem to be, in daily, practical use, significantly better to ride and "own", than a horse. The owners we met had real respect for their long-eared "partners"!
Haha yeah, mules are amazing! We’re so thankful for the three we have 😊🙏🏼 they definitely work their way into your heart if you’ve had them a while… they can have really big, fun personalities 😊
She’s is beautiful I just love her very informative video thanks
Thank you!! She really is awesome! Still can’t believe we got her 😊🙏🏼
She's absolutely lovely!
Thank you! 😊 She really is! We are so thankful we have her 🙏🏼
Reata is such a lovely lady. Whilst my own experiences with mules are limited to only a few animals, they always struck me are good companions that were also switched on cognitively.
That’s a really good way to put it! They’re definitely never mentally checked out 😊
Shes a beautiful mule ive always assumed she was a mule but i never knew the reasoning behind her "pinstripes" 😂 thanks for sharing the info and great video as always!
Thank you! Yeah, most people know she’s a mule right away, but SOME people feel the need to inform us that we’re wrong and she’s a zonkey lol 🤦🏻♂️ Now we have a little video to refer them to 😊
The best saddle critter I ever had was, in fact, a henny . . . Dad was a percheron and mom was a mammoth.
Oh that’s awesome!! I’ve heard there are some nice, big hinnies, and it sounds like yours was probably like that 😊 I’ve never seen one big enough to ride. I don’t think they’re very popular out here in the western US, so I don’t have a very big sample size to look at lol Did you breed yours like that on purpose?
@@MTN_BUILT I'm in Arizona, I doubt anyone breads them on purpose. She finished at 14-3 hands at around 4 years old, slow to mature but long lived. We roped off her, led cattle out of the Bradshaw mountains with her. A bit more horse than donkey to her, ears almost horse size. Not real fast but strong and sure footed in the rough country, smart and gentle unless she was in heat . . . Then she got nippy and ornery, not mean but dangerously playful.
Man that sounds like such a cool animal! I would’ve loved to see her.
Too bad she got a little too ornery as she aged… I wonder if that’s common for them.
@@MTN_BUILT Not when she aged, when she was in heat. They can't reproduce but they still have that time of the month. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures of her, the few I had were lost in 2001 when my house burned.
@@andyfields3248 oh I got ya! My mule has really bad heat cycles too actually… way worse than our mare and other molly for some reason.
That stinks about the house fire. It’s a bummer to lose pictures, but I’m sure that was the least of your concerns! 🙁
Informative, great sound and video quality. You have beautiful animals.
Thanks so much for taking time to watch and leave a nice comment 😊 And thank you- we’re super fortunate to have our little herd! 🙏🏼
She is gorgeous! Thank you for this video, it was fascinating.
Thank you so much! 😊 We are so thankful we have her 🙏🏼 Thank you for watching and leaving such a nice comment!
Gorgeous scenery! And mule!
Thank you!! I’m so glad you enjoyed it! 😊
Thank you!! As a fervent Louis L'Amour fan, I alwsys wondered about 'zebra dun' and 'lineback dun'. Grullas are easy to visualize, though.
Give your critters a good wither scratching for me...sure miss our Belgians.
Thank you so much for watching and leaving such a nice comment! I’m glad it helped you visualize what Louis L’Amour was writing about. Thats pretty cool 😊 We’ll give them a scratch from a fellow horse-person 😊👍🏼
Reata is a gorgeous girl, her colours, eyes, are stand alone: she seems to have a beautiful temperament, but like all of us, she probably has some not so good days to. I sure love the country side, green fresh and clean. Reata must have some amazing adventures.
You’re exactly right! She’s an awesome mule, and we’re so thankful to have her, but she’s not perfect lol usually the bad moments don’t end up on film though!
Thanks for watching and taking time to leave such a nice comment 😊
She is, all in all, a thoroughly gorgeous animal!
Thank you so much! 😊 We’re so thankful for her 🙏🏼
Man, I miss growing up/living in Idaho just because of the camping and outdoors stuff. It's pretty there. I've lived in an isolated piece of property with historical value up the Salmon River, only accessible by helicopter and jet boat. It can get crazy out there. I want to move back so bad....
This looks so fun. So jealous, I want horses. I'm gonna sub! So, at least I can live vicariously through you, lol.
We’re SO THANKFUL that we get to live here. It’s just a perfect fit for us 😊🙏🏼 That place sounds amazing! That country between Salmon and Riggins is some of the coolest, most wild country in the lower 48! What an amazing experience it must have been to get to live there. Were you working for an outfitter?
You two are having waay too much fun!!😂
😂😂❤️
Mules are my favorite equine. They may not run the fastest, or jump the highest. But they will follow you through thick and thin, through ice and rain. They are majestic animals in their own right and have helped us humans achive great, GREAT things.
You’re so right! They’re our favorite animal too! They’re incredible partners in the mountains, and they can have really fun personalities too 😊 We’re super thankful that we have ours! 🙏🏼
I didn't know you had a live chat cool thanks kray
It’s the first time we’ve tried it 😁 Kind of fun!
@@MTN_BUILT yeah keep doing those when time allows thanks kray
@@kraymississippi4388 we’ll definitely try! It could be fun when we have longer videos and more viewers 😊 It would be pretty cool for us to get to interact live with viewers
I learned to ride Horses as a kid, in the 70sand on Vacation in Cook’s Forest in Pennsylvania, I got to ride a Mule!
They are Smart, Cute, and you could tell the people who owned them adored their Horses and Mule like Family!
After the Ride everyone got to Relax even the Horses and Mule for a Good While before the next visitors showed up.
Always remembered that.
Great Times! This was in the 80’s.
That’s so cool! I love it when people who lead trail rides take such good care of their animals 😊 And that’s cool that you still enjoy that memory from such a long time ago!
She’s beautiful!!! ❤❤❤
Thank you! We’re so thankful we have her! 😊🙌🏼
Reata is a mule and her color is dun. Dun with dorsal stripes and zebra marked legs. Like the Przewalski's horses of Mongolia.
Yes!! Exactly! 😁🙌🏼 Just this morning we had someone say, “that’s a horse” 🤦🏻♂️ She really throws people off for some reason. Lol
She looks like one of the horses from the cave drawings in Lascaux or Chauvet. Absolutely beautiful with all those primitive markings!
That is so cool!! I’m definitely going to look those up! Hopefully there are some good pictures online 😊🙏🏼
I just subscribed to your channel you give great information thank you. I'm looking forward to watching more of your content.
Thank you so much! We appreciate you watching and taking the time to leave a comment ☺️ hope you enjoy our videos!
I have always considered the best trait in mules to be their smooth gait. Much less bouncy than a horse, which I suppose is why some people refer to them as "Cadillac" mules. In any case, Reata is truly beautiful. Lucky you!
Yeah! Our white mule is super smooth at all gaits! So nice to ride 😊 this dun mule is really nice to ride at a walk, but pretty choppy at faster gaits lol
Thanks for watching and for the kind words! We’re so thankful for our little herd 😊🙏🏼
She's beautiful, I think the stripes come from something like Highland ponies which also have the leg stripes and dorsal stripes, so shes a mule. It could be a trait in either any horse parent or more likely from the father as striping is common in all Ass species. I was going to also say that Dun is one of the more common colours of Highland pony and can occur in almost any breed.
Yep! It’s the primitive dun gene coming through. Donkeys have a lot of it and we are guessing her mom must have too. We didn’t ever see her mom since we bought Reata when she was 5 year old, but we do know her mom was a quarter horse
Thank you so much. Wonderful presentation.
Awesome! I’m glad you enjoyed it! 😊😊 Thanks for watching and leaving a nice comment!
The answer to her species made me definitely feel smarter! So glad my thoughts on what she was being correct!
The stripes did puzzle me but i also knew stripes weren't only due to zebra bloodlines either, and assumed it must be some gene causing for the uniqueness of their stripes! I learned quite a lot thanks to your video, and feel proud i kept to my original thoughts when my family tried to convince me it was a zorse/zonkey. Lol
Haha nice work! Yeah, the stripes throw a lot of people for a loop! It was fun to sit down and look at a bunch of our footage and put together a video about duns 😊 thanks for watching and leaving a fun comment. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
@@MTN_BUILT Thanks for the awesome video and the great education you put in it! Gorgeous mule!
I don’t know much about equines, but she’s beautiful.🥰
Thank you! We’re so thankful we have her 😊
Great markings. She looks like some sort of Pleistocene equine -- like what you might have seen in N. America prior to the extinction of most of the Pleistocene megafauna
Mules are awesome. So strong and smart.
Thank you! Yeah, her stripes really give her that ancient look 😊 They’re really amazing, and we’re thankful to have ours 😊🙏🏼
Very nice looking. Great conformation and color to match.
Thank you! 😊 We’re so fortunate to have her 🙏🏼
Great video loved it thanks kray
Awesome!! Thank you Kray 😊 Glad you enjoyed it!
I always get confused when I've heard of people referring to her as a one of the zebra crosses because anyone who's been around a variety of done horses has seen the occasional one that has extensive zebra markings on the lower legs🤷♀️ sometimes people just need to stop and think a little bit more. Either way she's gorgeous girl and people do seem to endlessly need education about long ears so thanks for continually spreading that education😊
lol we do too! We love it when people ASK what she is, but when people TELL us she’s not a mule, it gets old lol 😂 Thanks for watching and taking time to leave a nice comment! 😊
Mules are also fierce protectors. Many years ago a story circulated of how 2 mules stomped a cougar. The riders and the mules were unharmed.
Mules have also been used in dressage.
Smart, talented and beautiful.
That’s crazy! I think I remember seeing a picture of that 😊
That’s pretty cool that mules are allowed in dressage competitions… I would think the braying would get on people’s nerves lol
Reata is an exceptionally beautiful mule, even apart from her flashy markings.
Thank you! She really is put together well 😊 and she has a big soft look to her eyes as well.
We’re super thankful for her 🙏🏼
She is gorgeous
Thank you! We’re so thankful for her 😊🙏🏼
Stunning animal, i hope she brings you many years of joy. Mules are a special animal.
Thank you! We’re off to a great start… she’s already brought us almost three years of happiness 😊
I was going to say it was the Dunn in her, but he beat me to it. I’ve ridden a lot of dark Dunn horses with leg stripes or “ tiger legs”. Red lineback dunns tend to have them less often. Hers are some of the most pronounced I’ve ever seen. Very pretty mule !
Haha you knew without even watching! Nice work 😊🙌🏼
Thanks for the watching and taking time to leave a nice comment! We appreciate it 😊
I knew when I saw her precious face she's a mule ❤. Her markings are beautiful.
Thank you 😊 Yeah, most people know right of the bat that she’s a mule, but we still get told (quite often) in the comment section that we don’t know what kind of animal she is and she’s actually a zonkey, zorse, etc lol 🤦🏻♂️
She’s a beauty! Thank you for such an informative video!!
Thank you for watching and taking time to leave a kind comment! 😊
Beautiful I love mules I have a print of a pair of harnessed mules over my fireplace. My realitives in northern Tennessee used them when I was a boy . Thank you by Will
That’s so cool! Those old working mules really built a lot of America. And that’s super cool that your family used them in Tennessee. They’re pretty special animals 😊
Thanks for taking time to watch and leave such a nice comment. 😊
She sure has the “WOW” factor, made do a double take. ❤
She really does! We’re lucky to have her😊 Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a nice comment! 🙏🏼
I've seen both a zonkey and a zorse at the ark encounter's ararat zoo.
Long live Reata!
She is a gem!!!
💖🐴💖🐴💖🐴💖
Thank you! 😊 She really is! We’re so thankful we have her 🙏🏼
She's so pretty! You are blessed to have such a wonderful life.
Thank you! And I totally agree! We are SO BLESSED! 😊🙏🏼
She is the most beautiful mule that I've ever seen. I've always loved the duns especially when they have the bars whether it be on a horse or a mule. I haven't loved every mule I've come across, but some have been absolutely unforgettable with their unique personalities and dispositions, both wonderful and sometimes not so wonderful (just like horses and every other animal).
Your spot on about their personalities varying depending on the individual. Ours are all different, but they’re all really good animals. And I love duns too! They’re so pretty 😊
people will go on about this but when it comes to people they could care less
lol it’s really true! 😬
My lifetime dream..
You're living it!
Makes my heart ache.
With joy for you..
and longing from me.
❤️
Oh man, we feel so blessed to live this life 😊🙏🏼 I hope you can as well! Just a few years ago, it seemed like we would never get to this point.
Hopefully things come together for you to live a life you love! 🙏🏼😊
@@MTN_BUILT Thank you so much! ❤️
I like your hat!
Thank you! It’s one of my favorites! 😊
Gorgeous!!!! I don’t really care what she is! You have a striking beauty there!
Thank you so much! We blessed to have her! 😊🙏🏼
That is the most peculiar looking mule I have ever seen!
Yeah, she really throws people for a loop! 😊
She is beautiful and seems a little more horselike than donkeylike and sounds like the perfect companion for where you live.
Thank you! She really is perfect for us! 😊🙏🏼
My sister had a zebra buckskin. Stripes on legs, line back, dorsal stripes and even spider webbing around his face. Pretty boy. Old cowboys were superstitious about those stripes... Probably due to the wild look. "Line down the back bronc will kill you Jack". It's part of an old cowboy poem about coat colors and markings.
That sounds like a beautiful horse! 😊 And that superstition is common with mules too… I wonder if it partially comes from people choosing an equine ONLY for their looks, and maybe disposition gets overlooked too often?
Amazing! Reata is so pretty!
Cobwebbing on the face is also one such feature that may appear on dun, and it also follows the same pattern as zebra's forehead stripes!
It is likely that the gene that makes stripes on zebras is a very modified dun and we have the pleasure to see it in so many diverse expressions from extant equines. And when it comes to zebra hybrids, unlike zebra stripes, the hybrid's stripes often 'fumble around' at the rump and kidney area, making this interesting grainy pattern.
Onagers are generally known to not have leg stripes, but you sometimes see them with striped legs too :)
Thank you! 😊🙏🏼 it would be so cool to see a fun with the cobwebbing on the face! I don’t think I’ve seen one like that yet.
That’s super interesting that zebra hybrids lose the solid striping pattern around the hip!
As someone who has fought Tiger Musky for my entire life i can attest to the reality of Hybrid Vigor. Those suckers eat like pike and fight like monster muskie. Cool to see how it works in the equine world!
Oh that’s super cool! I hadn’t even thought of hybrids in the fish world! 😊
My spanish horse also has very prominent stripes so I thought something like this would be the case. She is a very beautiful Mule!
Oh that’s awesome!! I love those dun horses with the pronounced striping 😊 Thanks for watching and taking time to leave a nice comment!
She’s beautiful!
Thank you 😊 I’m so thankful we have her!
She is such a beautiful creature! ❤
Thank you 😊 We are so thankful we have her 🙏🏼
Don't care what she is, she's gorgeous. We love Donkey's, Mules, etc..
Haha! Thank you! We’re thankful she’s a mule, because they are SO fun! 😊
A beauty. Is her mane naturally roached or do you trim it? I have always loved dun horses, didnt know it was an ancient gene. In fact, I just saw one today in a field with all bays. It stood out like a ray of light against the grass. Beautiful.
Thank you 😊 We trim all our mule’s manes because they don’t grow long and pretty like a horse’s mane does… if you don’t trim them, they usually just get to an awkward, half-flopped-over length.
We love duns too! They’re just so striking 😊
I saw a mule at the Van Wert (OH) county fair many years ago. He could've been Reata's twin brother!
Oh that’s so cool! We would love to have another one like her, but they’re hard to come by!
Flashy mule😊
Yeah!! We’re so glad we have her 😊 If you’re gonna have an animal for 30+ years, you might as well have a pretty one!
Your animals are beautiful. Love her markings but I love the white mule as well. I've never been around a mule but I think if I was gonna buy something to ride I would get a mule.
Thank you!! We sure love them! 😊 if you find the right mule, they can be such amazing partners… we’re super thankful for ours!
Some interesting remarks:
I live in a South Africa. Zebra’s are common where I live. They are wild but unfortunately not free roaming any more since they don’t jump cattle fences. Zonkey’s are a very common occurrence here despite relative low numbers of donkeys here. I have never seen a Zorse in South Africa bespite many horses in our area. Donkeys and zebra’s very quickly herd together, whereas horses don’t.
Zebra stallion’s make formidabele fighters and will win a fight against the largest horse stallion.
Zebra’s are always fat, irrespective of the condition of the grazing.
Zebra’s can be asymptomatic carriers of African Horse Sickness.
The Afrikaans name for a hinny is directly translated a “butterhead”.
Wow! Those are really interesting remarks! Thank you for sharing 😊 I wonder why the donkeys will her up with zebras, and horses will not 🤔
In Britain a zebra was given to Queen Charlotte (married to king George III), but there wasn’t any other zebra to breed it with so she ordered men to paint the rear end of a donkey with stripes and it work! Just a historical fact about these lovely equine animals ❤️
Hahaha!! That’s the best fact I’ve read on here! 😂🙌🏼 I love it! Thanks for sharing 😊
She is beautiful! I love the dun gene. We had a sooty buckskin and he had zebra stripes on his legs, so horses can have that, too. Has anyone looked up onagers? They are amazing wild primitive asses found in Iran. Their coloring is beautiful.
Yes they are so beautiful! 😃 you’re mare sounds gorgeous!
Ah! You got me. She is beautiful. I have 3, but none are duns. Mine are black, strawberry roan & black/brown w 4 white stockings. They are a lot smarter than horses.
Oh cool!! I’ve never seen a strawberry roan mule! And I love the ones with stockings… sounds like you have a pretty cool little herd 😊🙌🏼
To be honest I just thought it was a mule with leg baring. I use to have a thoroughbred that had a dorsal stripe and and leg baring and one that had large bird catcher spots and an Arabian with a blood mark on his shoulder and a warmblood with ermine spots. I love horse colour and genetics it's so interesting!
Wow! That’s so cool! Sounds like you’ve had a lot of flashy horses 😊 If everyone knew what you do, we wouldn’t have even made this video lol I don’t even know what blood marks or ermine spots are 😊
You didn’t have to make a video to let us know she a darn good Pard! Jeez guys! 🤠
Hahaha this video was mostly just so we had something to refer folks to when they tell us we don’t know what kind of animal she is 🤣 Now I can just send a link to everyone who tells us she’s a zorse or zonkey lol
@@MTN_BUILT Smart thinking. Generally speaking, I bet she’s a real sweetheart and great to have around. Have an awesome evening!
@@nmelkhunter1 lol she really is! 😊 You too!!
I saw a video where a breader in South America breeds light grey amlost white mules with leg stripes
Wow! I would love to see that! I bet those are pretty! 😊
Hi guys.
She will.ALWAYS be looked at. Talked about.
The mule with leg stripes. The primative markings from the dun factor❤❤❤❤
We’re so thankful we have her. 🙏🏼 We love all our mules, but it’s fun to have an extra pretty one also 😊 We loooove our dubs! We’re hoping to have a mule baby out of our dun horse, Timber in a year or two 😊
