6.7.15 Chris Spracklen

Zorse, Greenview Aviaries

12752 Talbot Trail, Morpeth, Ontario, Canada

Info : 'Zebroid' is the generic name for all zebra hybrids. The different hybrids are generally named using a portmanteau of the sire's
name and the dam's name. There is generally no distinction made as to which zebra species is used. Many times when zebras are
crossbred, they develop some form of dwarfism. Breeding of different branches of the equine family, which does not occur in the wild,
generally results in infertile offspring. The combination of sire and dam also affects the offspring phenotype.

A zorse is the offspring of a zebra stallion and a horse mare. This cross is also called a zebrula, zebrule, or zebra mule. The rarer reverse
pairing is sometimes called a horbra, hebra, zebrinny or zebret. Like most other animal hybrids, the zorse is sterile.

[Once again, I regrettably find myself unable to give time to commenting ~ at least, for the time being. I hope to be able to do so again
before too long, time permitting. In the meantime, a big 'thank you' to all who continue to show an interest in my uploads.]

He appears robust and healthy although I do not support such breedings. You have done a fine job of capturing his unique markings. Voted.
