Welcome to Gulf Sand Arabians!
Welcome to the permanent GSA thread! Gulf Sand Arabians are a very talented breed. They excel the most in endurance riding, although many are talented in other areas. Gulf Sand Arabians range in many coat patterns, and rarer markings occur more frequently than in most horse breeds. No less than 13 hands or more than 16 hands may occur, though some may have heard of a select few that have a height of 17-18 hands. Most Arabians stand around 14 hands, however. Gulf Sand Arabians have many of the characteristics of normal Arabians, with an unusually high tail carriage, small but dense skeletal structure, and usually, a shorter height than that of most Arabians, though the height range of a Gulf Sand Arabian can differ greatly from horse to horse. Their faces have the typical Arabian characteristics, though less exaggerated and “exotic.” Like all Arabians, Gulf Sand Arabians have black skin under their coats, which provides protection from the sun. Unlike other Arabian types, GSAs will come in more colors than just bay, black, grey, and chestnut. We have found that they will come in any known horse color, with rarer colors even being more prevalent than common colors. Eye colors also vary greatly, and do not depend on the coat color. For example, cremellos will always have blue eyes, but on Gulf Sand Arabians, they can have amber eyes, brown, or even others. Even the most basic black Arabian can have blue eyes. Gulf Sand Arabians are known for being one of the first horse breeds to have many horses that are gay or bi, though of course, we have straight horses as well. Your gay mares or stallions will be able to have mates and foals, as we have a stem cell breeding program. The foal will appear just as it would from a straight pairing. GSA mares (or stallions), when courting, will often look for the Arabian with the best temperament. This is why most of our Arabians are great horses for families, even those with small children. The gestation period is around 350 days, and twins are extremely rare. The chance of having twins is around 1%. Usually, the twins will fuse, resulting in a chimera horse. Most Gulf Sand Arabians naturally excel in endurance riding. Many are skilled in other disciplines, as this breed is very versatile and easily trainable. Other common disciplines that our GSAs do are racing, jumping, and dressage, though you may train your Arabian in virtually anything you choose. Gulf Sand Arabians originate from crosses between beautifully colored horses such as appaloosas and paints, and Arabians. As the exotic coat colors got mixed into the breed, people started breeding for more Arabian-like features, such as a “dishier” face and a high tail carriage. However, with the breed’s non-Arabian origins, it doesn’t look quite as distinct as many purebred Arabians do. The GSAs have been breed together so long (with no inbreeding, of course), however, it is considered a breed of its own, and not a cross. In addition to the fascinating heritage of the Gulf Sand Arabian, there are many rumors that we can trace many GSAs back to mythical creatures such as unicorns, and many others, some of which have no name. We don’t fully understand mythical genetics, but sometimes, after a few lines of non-magical parents, we’ll find an alicorn, for example. We don’t really understand why this happens, but the chance of having a magical child from two non-magical parents is about 1%. Thank you to Olive; for being the creator for all this information!
