[Ponygirl]

We will have three ASPC babies due in early spring....one of these will be our Foundation show baby for '06 - the baby will be 75% Arenosa out of our 16 year old mare, DWF Ever Ready, who is a direct daughter of Kewpie Doll's Diablo..(please be a filly!!!)...the other two should be pinto babies as the parents are all pinto.....one is due in Feb and one in March.....I'm ready now!!!!!

All of our ASPC and AMHR foals will be Futurity nominated....most of our bloodlines are Arenosa......

11-23-05 HI! We have 9 bred for next year. That's the most we've ever bred and probably the most we'll do for a number of years. We prefer about 6, but we've had troubles with mares carrying to term (even with the shots to prevent abortion) the past few years, so we've been breeding a couple more...just in case. Also one of the mares is old and one was bred on the foal heat so we're up in the air about those two carrying to term. We'll have, hopefully, 2 by Double Stuf (Superior Sire this year!) 4 by Sandstorm (double bred Silver Mane's Pierre Cody grandson and 22 years old -- he's been getting the most because of his age), 2 to Roulette and 1 to Midnight Star. Roulette's and Midnight Star's will be their first for us. Fog Ranch has had a couple of Roulette foals and have been thrilled, so we're looking forward to seeing what he sires for us. Mid. Star's will be his first foal. Our's won't start arriving until very late May, early June. Hope everybody carries to term. Especially the two bred to Roulette -- the old mare, Star (Mid. Star's dam) and Dazzle (palomino)( foal heat breeding) (read recently, where the odds of that breeding carrying to term are way less than 30 day heat -- but sometimes it works, so have our fingers crossed). You can see all the stallions on our website www.stepnstone.com Most of the mares, too, but since I didn't mention their names (how fair is that!) you'll just have to guess Ta, Shirlee

Like Shirlee I bred a few more than normal and that was also mostly due to the age of the stallion I used most. I also have two mares over 15 who I left open last year who I wanted bred this year. I bought a few bred mares too so it'll be a record foal crop for me next year too (like Shirlee I normally have no more than 6).

Will have 10-14 Arenosa foals in the spring 2006, some 100% and some percentages. ASPC/AMHR. It is always exciting.

2005 was less than usual......

I have 3 shetlands due for 2005.

One is the dam of the colt in Ponygirl's avatar. She's black and is bred to an overo, so hoping for a black frame overo foal!

She is Georgetown's Tom Cat granddaughter on top, and a daughter of MAM Music's Miss Melody (owned by Buckeye Walnut Creek Farm) who could be one of the greatest shetland mares currently producing.

The second is a silver dapple that is bred to my Arenosa/Kid Lee stallion. She is Raven of Bird Haven breeding.

The last is a sabino mare, also bred to my Arenosa/Kid Lee stallion. She is Royal Red Viking breeding.

In 2006 I will be breeding my first ASPC/AMHR mares .. can't wait!

I dont normally breed in the fall and so Im not going to be too upset if the ultrasound is neg.....we will start again in feb but if she is pregnant then we will have one for us and Hattie is bred to steel bu now lives with another family since she went over 38. I do though have first dibs on buying her baby back if they decide to sell it.[/SIZE]

We have our first Modern Shetland in foal for a May 2006 foal - she is bred to E's Blaze of Glory.

After three tough years breeding minis (2 aborted foals, 3 dystocias and 2 dwarf horses), I am cautiously optimistic for May 2006 - I am hoping for a safe delivery of a healthy foal and a happy, healthy mare. To me, that is success!
