It’s a baby so rare and unique, that even the other horses gathered around to stare and watch in awe as she trotted around the land! Coconut being a Medicine hat horse (mostly white body with colored markings on ears and head) is very rare for a paint horse. Many Native American tribes held medicine hat horses in high regard saving them for chiefs and medicine men.
“They must have a shield on their chest and markings on their flanks which are also called shields. And they can only have 1 blue eye with liner around the eye. This eye in Indian Mythology is called a Sky Eye. If the Chief or Medicine Man dies in battle then this one blue sky eye will carry their spirits to their Gods,” the owners explained on YouTube.
