Kiger Mustang basic information

Kiger Mustangs are an established breed. Spanish markers were found in their blood during genetic testing by the University of Kentucky. They carry the dominant genes which code for the primitive dun factor coloration and markings. Dun factor horses are most commonly identified as duns and grullas. Dun factor markings include: dorsal stripe, jack stripe, zebra stripes on legs, arm bars, bicolored mane and tail, ears with dark outline and fawn colored interior, facial mask and cobwebbing.

The Kiger Mustang averages about 13.2 - 15.2 hands in height. The ears are finely pointed and slightly hooked at the tip. Head is medium in size and clean cut, with prominent eyes and a fine muzzle. Body comformation is distinctive with good chest depth and well muscled. The back is short, broad and moderately muscled. Dense bone, compact hooves and a well-crested neck round out this unique and tough horse.
