Did You Know?
Early Florida cowmen were nicknamed, “Crackers” because of the loud cracking sound their whips made when herding cattle.
The ancestors of the Florida Cracker Horses came from Spain on ships and arrived in Florida during the 1500's.
They were some of the original cow horses in the United States.
There are now around 1,000 horses registered with the Florida Cracker Horse Association.
