What are Nile River Equids?

Nile River Equids (NREs) are a sub-breed of Mustangs who were discovered to be living in Africa. They tend to range anywhere from 12 hh to 16 hh, while there have been known to be slightly smaller or larger. These horses tend to be able to sustain themselves on a minimal amount of water and food, they can travel long distances and have extraordinary stamina. The people who discovered these animals found that they were extraordinarily friendly and the braided tails are a sign that the NRE is domesticated or belongs to another person.

Story: Well, to be honest, it is probably what everyone else is saying. This horse is by far one of the most beautifully colored, and would be amazing breeding stock. I have a couple of NRE's who have been waiting for another beauty to come along and create one, adorable foal.
Another reason is I have been saving the name Odyssey for a long time, for the perfect horse who looks like they have a personality deserving of it. And, honestly, I think this girl's the one. The definition for the word Odyssey is

a long series of wanderings or adventures, especially when filled with notable experiences, hardships, etc.

I think this mare would be the type to wander, a curious, adrenaline-seeking, yet pristine type that doesn't give up easily.
Okay, let me explain. Usually, when I read, I run into a lot of words that I don't know. I usually use context clues to figure out what it means, then move on. So, most of the time, I don't really know what the word means, I just associate it with either images, feelings, sounds, or just a specific generalized idea. I ran into the word 'Odyssey' a couple of years ago, and came up with the idea that it meant 'adventure', but in a different sort of way. An Odyssey in my mind isn't just a one-time thing, it's more of like having siblings. You are always going to have siblings. And throughout those years, you are going to have wanderings and adventures with them, and over time, it sort of becomes an Odyssey. So, basically, to me, an Odyssey is more meaningful than an adventure itself. It's a series of adventures.

OK, sorry I totally ranted up there. Whoops. Anyways, as I was saying, the name 'Odyssey' would fit her well, and it is also a meaningful word to me, so I just wanted to include that.

Story:
felis; you have just really out done yourself, I am utterly obsessed with this babe. He is just perfectly done. Sooty horses are one of my favorites and any dilution of appaloosa has my heart. I automatically fell in love with this guy to be honest. I would love to make a nice background story for him and maybe some art!

Story: Ok lets be honest here... This lil horsey is absolutely gorgeous... your art style is gorgeous, and so far all of your other adoptables have been gorgeous as well, so who wouldn't want to have this beautiful girl? Definitely not me! There's no reason for me to go on with a big elaborate sob-story of why I want her, so instead I will just tell you how it is: I like her design, and I want her. Enough said. I fell in love with her sooty coloring... and idk why but I've always loved buckskin's and grulla's, and horses with sooty features. Something about them just calls to me. Not to mention the birdcatcher spots, the way they just all gathered up by her eye reminds me of all the time I spent in the snow while the lil flakes clung to my eyelashes and made me look silly!

Story: I just found this species and I'm really, really interested in them. This would be my first one and I'd really like to own one so that I can get into the community, maybe write about them, and just have fun. I recently had a kind of hiatus from chickensmoothie and a lot of the adopts I owned kind of slowed down in activity, so I really want to get into some new ones now that I'm back! C:

Story: I really love this gal. I love the way you did her birdcatcher spots; they look like snow is falling! It looks like you painted a picture on her body, it doesn't just look like horse markings, it looks like a true, beautiful image. And I love it. You did fantastic on her, I don't just see spots on a horse, I see snow falling in front of a dark horizon.

    Story: I really love NREs and this colour is absolutely gorgeous, i have to say it is one of my favourites but those bird catcher spots just make her that little but more special. I have entered to win multiple NREs and so far have come up empty handed and would love to own at least one of these spectacular ponies.

Story: Ahhhh, omg she is beautiful ! Wow, I've just realised how many of your babes I go after ! ^^ But to me she doesn't remind me like snow because right now it's Summer here in Aussie ! But she reminds me of a beautiful sunset with a few of the early stars and a celestial being. I don't know, maybe it's the birdcatcher spots round the eyes ? The way her markings are ? Something reminds me of a celestial being that has grace and wisdom but is hilariously awkward = funny to watch ^w^
