The Florida
Crack is known by a variety of other names, including
Cracker, Chicksaw Pony, Seminole Pony, March Tackie,
Prairie Pony, Florida Horse and Florida Cow Pony. They
are descended from Spanish stock brought into Florida
in the 16th century by Spanish Conquistadors. The Florida
Cracker is small and agile and adept at driving cattle.
They are small but sturdy, with easy, ground-covering
gaits that are rarely found in other breeds. Their gait
include flatfoot walk, running walk, trot, and ambling.
They are very energetic and enjoy working. Their intelligent
head is refined, with a straight or slightly concave
profile. The dark eyes are keen and wide set with a
white scelara. The neck is narrow and well-defined and
the back is short and narrow. They are predominately
solid colors or grays, although all colors common to
horses are possible. |
