Colt Has A "3" On His Forehead

Colt Has A "3" On His Forehead LIVESTOCK Horses/Mules 29-5-21 You've never seen anything like this colt, born on Friday, May 13th with a no. 3 on its forehead. "The only thing that's different about the colt is that he has a number on his head," says the Amish farmer who owns the colt. He wishes to remain anonymous for religious reasons. At first, many think it's a hoax or that the mark is painted on. "It's for real and will grow with the colt as he gets older," he says. A few Dale Earnhardt fans expressed an interest in getting the colt into a racecar magazine. Earnhardt, one of NASCAR's most successful drivers ever, drove a No. 3 black Chevrolet. He's received letters offering to buy the colt although no one's named a price yet. Although the farmer plans to eventually sell the colt, born from a Standardbred mare and Haflinger sire, he's not in any hurry. "A lot of people say ælet me know before you sell him.' "He's going to be more of a collector's item than a horse," the farmer says. Contact: FARM SHOW Followup, Blue Creek Workshop, 4373 E. 100 South, Monroe, Ind. 46772.
