Of all
the Arabian Horses in the World only a little over
three percent are Straight Egyptian, Al Khamsa or other documented
pure Desert Bred horses. Of these, only about eight percent are
of the Kuhaylan Jellabi strain and few of those are pure-in-strain
(have both parents of the same strain).
To put
that into numbers, according to the Manual of Straight Egyptian
Horses by Martha Murdoch and published by the Pyramid
Society:
*As
of the end of 1999, the U.S. totals (living and deceased) for
Straight
Egyptian, Kuhaylah Jellabi Horses are
as follows:
Mares-941
Stallions-579
Geldings-206
Total-1726
There
have been a total of 85 new Kuhaylan Jellabi registrations since
the 1999 Supplement update.
