Adorable Chincoteague Foals

This adorable Chincoteague foal was one of several hundreds auctioned off at the Pony Penning Day Auction which is held the last week of July every summer in Chincoteague, VA. 

This foal's color is called skewbald, which is a solid color coat with white markings. In this case, the foal is bay with white markings. A piebald is black and white only. 

Chincoteague ponies normally grow to between 12.2 to 13.2 hands. Although rare, there are a few who have been domesticated and grew over 15 hands.
