2009 Pony Auction Photos

A nice, tri-color pinto colt, who isn't sure he likes what is happening...

This filly definitely doesn't like being handled by the younger firemen

I want my Momma! I want her now!

This little filly put up a fight when separated from her dam - that's why there are three handlers: Tyler Marks, a Reed boy, and Curtis Nock (left to right).

I'm positive that the auctioneer touted this foal as a "real Misty-family" colt, it's done with every palamino pinto...

Landrie Folsom, of Thomasville, GA, kisses the nose of her new possession - this is the last time she'll touch him until next year. This sorrel pinto colt was a "buy back", in which the buyer gets a photo, papers, and the ability to name the foal... but the foal itself will be breeding stock on Assateague Island, in the care of the Chincoteague Volunteer Fire Company.
