It's been a year and many changes have happened for us. We are still in a holding pattern to move and are still in AZ.
We have sold all our 2013 foals(2 fillies & 2 colts) and several mares.
Freckles and Miss Te (both had fillies 2013) were traded. Freckles (in foal to Wesco Farms Rohan Echo ET for 2014) for a 6 year old sorrel Arabian/Welsh cross(registered in both registries). Miss Te (aborted her 2014 foal) is a down payment for a registered bay Arabian filly with sabino and splash. Both Miniatures went to Jessica at CheyAut Ranch. Lace (bred back to Casper for 2014) and her buckskin colt were sold as Christmas presents since we were unable to get them hard shipped into AMHA before the end of the year. We sold the other three 2013 foals, plus two of our stallions (cart trained) to a gentlemen for therapy horses. We are down to 12 Miniatures.
We are only expecting three foals for 2014. We had two mares not take or slip and one abort at 5 months.
Magic Marker Fancy Feather (maiden and daughter of Freckles) is in foal to Wisteria GMB Dreams Come True (cremello-Casper) for June 2014
HMM Designed for Destiny (had silver pinto colt 2013) is in foal to Casper for September 2014.
Thorny Rose Rocks Ann (red bagged a tiny sorrel pinto filly last year) is in foal to Wesco Farms Rohan Echo ET (silver smoky black) for July 2014. Annie is blind in one eye (pasture accident) and starting to have issues with her other. She is low on the totem pole but refuses to be pushed away from food. Has anyone bred a blind or partially blind horse and did you have any issues? We would like at least one live foal from her, hopefully a filly.
We have had 5 sets of goat twins (4 sets of Nigerian Dwarf and 1 set of Alpine/La Mancha.). Still waiting for 2 Alpines to kid (in the next week). The first doe (Nigerian) had a blue-eyed doeling (red & white) and buckling (black, brown, & white) on Nov 30th. The buckling is sold. The second doe (Nigerian) had a blue-eyed doeling (brown, black, & white) and a brown eyed doeling (brown, black, & grey) on Dec 17th. The brown eyed doeling is for sale. The third doe had a brown-eyed doeling (cream and white) and buckling (brown & white) on Dec 25th. The buckling is being traded for a doe and the doeling is sold. They are going to the same farm. The fourth doe (Alpine/La Mancha bred to Alpine) had a doeling (tan) and a buckling (black) on Dec 27th. Buckling will be wethered and staying on the farm. Doeling is a keeper. The fifth doe (Nigerian-was her first kidding and she didn't disappoint) had a blue eyed doeling (light cream and white) and a buckling (black and white) on Jan 4th. Both are staying. Buckling is our future buck.
Will get pictures of mares when closer to their due dates.
