Now that foaling season has wound up for most of us, I thought it would be fun to look forward and see what LB members have in the works for 2009!

This year, we had 3 foals, and we plan for only 3 next year as well. I'm very excited to meet the new babies

Here's what Harvey and I anticpate for 2009:

Two of our perlino pinto mares, Erica's Sweet as Sugar ("Sweetie")http://www.whinny4me.com/sweetie-page.html and Erica's Double Dipped ("Double")http://www.whinny4me.com/double-page.html, have both been ultra sounded in foal to our Hall of Fame National Champion stallion, Erica's Echos of My Destin (HOF)http://www.whinny4me.com/destiny-page.html. Both mares are granddaughters of Ima Boones Little Buckeroo Too ("BTU") and Destiny is a grandson of both Alvadars Double Destiny and Little Kings Buck Echo. SO, the foals will have lots of Buckeroo behind them and my hunch is they'll be buckskin to boot. Sweetie is due in February 2009 and Double is due in April 2009. These will be our FIRST Destiny babies:

Then our silver buckskin mare with dun factor, Wee Equine Acres Dun Sweet ("Maddie")http://www.whinny4me.com/maddie-page.html, has been bred to our AMHR National Top Ten / AMHA Honor Roll stallion, Erica's Gone and DunIThttp://www.whinny4me.com/dunIT-page.html. Maddie's 2007 double dilute colt has been showing very well up north and we look forward to her first foal for us. She is due in May 2009. This will be DunIT's second foal season and we are proud of him for is "work" on our 2008 babies.

Ms. Maddie
As exhausted as we felt during our foaling season this year -- of course we now can't wait for 2009! I would bet a bunch of you feel the same

Jill,

I too am waiting for 2009. I only have one mare acutally ultrasounded in foal and she will be due in early February.

The rest of my mares will start in April and go through July if all have taken. So far I am seeing no signs of them coming back in"

I am anticipating 6 babies for next year.

We have two foals due for early March and early April 2009.

Both mares are in foal to Ravenwood's Res World Grand Champion, Mulitlple World Champion and Multiple World Champion sire, Hunt House Farms Medalion.

photo-full.jpg


The first mare is Res World Champion Villas Party Doll, and one of my personal favorites since the first time I saw her as a yearling. She is now 5 and I just love her even more. We lost her filly this year after a 9 day fight, but we hope her next foal looks as great as her first one did.

This photo was taken just a few weeks ago by Robin Cole and I just love it. Party has been in the pasture for 3 years and I think she is still wonderful.

partydoll3.jpg


The other mare is Wee Equine Acres Moonlight Shadow, I love the look of this mare and at 3 years old, she still is very refined and leggy.

shadowsm.jpg


I also still have one mare to check so its not offical yet.

This mare was one of the last horses my husband bought for me. I just love her and have since the day I laid eyes on her at a month old. She is now 4 and hasn't been in the show ring in 3 years, she was top ten honor roll in AMHA in amateur and aote and took several supremes for us.

Honeysuckle Knoll Sundances Analisa - this photo was also taken recently by Robin Cole. She is straight out of the pasture, a bath and bridle path clipped, thats it.

analisa4.jpg


We hope she is in foal to our jr stallion, Ravenwood Mr Magnificent.

I'm hoping for my first "homegrown" foal next year and my stallions first foal ever. We have been breeding her every other day since Friday and I really hope she takes! It's a little later in the year then I was hoping for, but then Belle can have a year off. I wanted to ultra sound to confirm, but I can't find a vet to do it so I guess we will just wait and see!

Last foal from this cross is Multi Champion and 2x World Top 10 Blue Stars Queen Victoria who is owned by Tiffany Porter and currently (hopefully) in foal to Avantes Chasing The Ace (full brother to Avantes Celtic Melody-2007 Champion of Champions) so am pretty much anticipating that one as well!!

toribodyev-390x483.jpg


I am also already anticipating a repeat breeding in 2009 for a 2010 foal of Blue Stars My T Fancy to Little Kings Zorba Buckeroo for another one of these...filly though this time please!! LOL

I am really looking forward to seeing everyones foal crop next year. How exciting, beautiful mares and stallions.
 
I bred 3 mares for 2009, but I'm only sure that 2 of them are pregnant, will get the third one checked later this fall.

CCMF Legacy's Color Maker (leased for breeding season) World Top Ten sorrel snowcap/fewspot stallion, awesome action on this boy, and a very sweet temperament, I'm eager to see what he has this time around (his first foal crop this year is with Lost Spoke Ranch).

'sigh' I'm sooo jealous of everyone here. Your horses look great and next years foals should be worth anticipating. I only bred one mare this year and she just came back in heat last week. I bred to an outside stallion that is not available again until September which is far to late for me.
default_sad.png
Ah well it will give me more time to work with the ones I already have.
default_smile.png
 
There is a possibility of 5 here, and 4 more outside mares I bred. I am waiting to get some ultrasounded.

I am excited as a few of them are new crosses. And I cant wait as its been a bit depressing around here since I sent two of my foals to new homes yesterday

. First mare is Due in Feb.

Heres my stallion. Really need new pics as these are from a yearling and hes 3 now.

So as a recap, I will have 4 foals, my stepson has one, and then there is 4 outside mares. 5 of these are new crosses
 
We are very excited about our first foal ever that will be born at our farm. Our mare, DSB Calamity Jane (Cami), had an ultrasound and is confirmed pregnant. The sire is Rolling Ridge Rum Rummer (Fred). Her expected due dates are between June 9th - 14th 2009.

We are hoping to have another foal due shortly thereafter but it isn't confirmed yet.
 
Well after three years of no foals here,,, we are very excited because we are having at least one.Hopefully two!

The first one confirmed in foal is my Pinky, Perlino mare bred to Sierra Dawn Uno's Pharaoh!!! ( Photo used with persmission from Gallery Originial Miniature Horses) Should be a sweet little baby!

Then I got our last born foal from here back CCR My Name Is Rio a dark dark bay bred to a red homozygous pinto Half Measures GM Too Hot To Gamble. This should be an awesome show foal!

And last but not least... I don't know if she is bred... but my palomino Grosshills Dandy's Special Edition daughter bred to NFC's Rowdy's Champion.... I HOPE I HOPE she took!
 
I am very excited about my two that are 'cooking'

Hey! There's Royal's sire

You're gonna have some pretty babies next year

Thank you Matt, I sure hope so. I have one Medalion daughter now that is a Res World Champion and hope these mares will give me something just as good.

And Sandy don't take this the wrong way but I have never hoped anyone had a colt more than I do Semi LOL. Cause I have some mares that would love to visit a handsome young man with those parents. Good luck and I will be crossing my fingers LOL.
 
Every cross this year is a new one, with the exception of one. So I am really looking forward to next years babies.

Same here!! I leased a stallion this year and all but one of my bred mares are in foal to him. The leased stallion is a cremello, homozygous pinto with agouti and dun, and his foals that have shown have very well so I am excited to see what we get.
