Quarter Horse Cross

Nutmeg

Nutmeg, named appropriately for her coloring, may be small, but she has a big heart! Standing around 13.2 hands tall, she is an ideal size for many of Camelot’s young riders. When you first meet Nutmeg, you will notice her social nature and her striking blue eye! Nutmeg carries the “silver gene” which causes unusual and beautiful coloring of her mane and tail. While she otherwise would be called a bay horse, her mane and tail have lighter colored hairs, creating a “taffy” appearance. 

Nutmeg is not only a riding horse, but also pulls a cart! DNA testing shows that Nutmeg is a cross between a Quarter Horse, Hanoverian, and Missouri Fox Trotter. She was born in 2012 in New Mexico, then traveled to Colorado before making her way to Arizona. While some of her early history is unknown, we do know that this little mare has a bright future at Camelot!
