Photo Challenge: 6 Mudball Horses

Have fun grooming.

For this week’s 24-hour photo challenge, we decided it was time to celebrate rather than fight with all that autumn mud. To that point, we asked to see your muddiest horse photos — and as usual, our readers provided.

Kristin Case: She had so much fun! Photo by Kristin Case.

Nina Amelung: JD. This old man will roll in spit if he could. I think he makes up for all the years he was blanketed. Photo by Nina Amelung.

Hailey Longstreth: Our grey Thoroughbred is always the dirtiest one when it’s wet out. Photo by Hailey Longstreth.

Keep an eye out for next week’s 24-hour photo challenge! We announce challenge subjects on Monday around the middle of the day on both Instagram and Facebook.

Go riding!
