You can see some old pics on Zorseman.com. Sorry I haven't updated it in some time.

Some smart looking animals.

At what age do you start riding/driving them?

Are they quick to mature like a racehorse or slow like a cleveland?

Great website and some really cracking stock. Please do tell us more about them!

I've got that site in my favourites on a storage thingymibob because I can't work out how to put it back into this laptop again,so I haven't looked at it for a while.
Lovely animals.How do you find they differ between crosses?
I'm still trying to find what happened to the two that were imported over here and were at The Looking Glass Stud when it was at Leominster about 12yrs ago.The rumour was that their American owner bought them back but I'd love to know if they are alright.They were featured in one of the American Mule mags doing parades and things before they came over but never did anything to my knowledge when they were over here

It is so cool seeing new sight here. I don't often go for 'pretty' when I'm looking for a mule, but this thing is great. I love the Mocha and Cream colours. I'd enjoy handling this kind of animal to! Not many new experiences around these days for an old guy!
Could the owner tell us if there are any practical advantages of owning one of these when it comes to working with it? Do they plough well? Or is it a circus animal? Apart from the obvious attention it would draw to the owner are there any other positive points to owning one?

They are stronger and hardier than most horses. They have a high heat tolerence. They are very sure footed, and fast.

Wow, the do look fantastic. Will have a look at our website in a minute!!! You do say they have a high heat tolerance. They would be very unhappy here in the UK then...?

I know when I used to get "Animals" Magazine in the 60's there was once a middle page spread with an ariel picture of a large herd of Zorses calloping across some grassland.I seem to remember it was South Africa and they were being bred as a working animal that would be immunne from sleeping sickness or was it tetse fly...can't remember but it was something horses were dying of.
