I forgot I took these the other night of Superman & Rocky. They are filthy dirty and they are not very good as our pasture is gone and we are on dry dirt now. We do not have irrigation water so our pastures are seasonal ALSO... if you go to my Facebook page (Sandy Swafford Bentien), I uploaded...

Hi guys!! I am so sorry, we have been so busy. First it was foaling out the 5 mini mares, then it was our county 4-H horse show & gymkhana that I was show manager of and not to mention my daughter and several of my 4-H kids in my group showed at. Then it has been preparing for my private girls...

Odette!! You over-baked the filly and made a him!! Shame on you!! BUT... I am so glad that a healthy lil guy was delivered and all is well. I am betting he is a blue roan like his mom!! I can not wait to see more pictures as he unfolds. Merlin is adorable! He has such a great personality...

Hey there! Question for you experienced pasture breeders. We started teasing Lexi & Fancy who should be coming in to their 30 day heat soon. Both girls get so uptight even though the foals are held at a good distance from Sky (the stallion). I talked to my vet and she said a lot of mini mares...

Thank you Cassie!! You just will have to come to the states for a visit!!!!!!

All the mini babies are doing great! The three boys are so much more friendlier than the girls. Not sure why?? Here is a picture taken today when Gracie was out with them. Also Gracie gave Superman and Rocky their first halter breaking session today. She said it went great. This is Maximous...

The County 4-H Horse Show and Gymkhana was a HUGE success. The awards were awesome and the kids all had a great time. I am so glad that it is done with as now I can concentrate on my girls horse camp coming up mid June. Gracie did amazing with her big horses. Jac, Gracie's all-around horse...
