Just curious. Did you keep your farm's first? We have ours, finally. Blue roan colt sired by a blue roan stallion. We are probably a one stallion farm. If we added a second it would be for our two tiniest girls. Although our stallion is very refined there is some height in the upline. This colt looks like a long legged deer. He hit the ground at 22" with the tiniest head I have ever seen. Cannot wait to get our camera fixed and get pix posted. My first inclination is to get him gelded and keep him. I have my eyes on a very tiny, tiny boy in case we add a second stallion. Still, I hate to see him wasted when he could be such a great herd sire for somebody. I hate being indecisive. What would you do??????? I am serious. I am so smitten by him I cannot think straight. What makes good business sense?? We only have 3 acres and I still work a full time job. Life is so complicated. I just thank God we finally got a healthy baby and he is gorgeous to boot!!! I cannot even think straight. Every day I have to get home to love him. He is so funny. He takes every step his five year old half sister takes. He runs like the wind. I cannot see me letting him go. I know this sounds crazy. Still, he is going to grow up and I have to make plans. I have three years invested in his sire and it just makes sense to let him remain the herd sire. I think I should have this baby gelded and let him be our little prince. What say you?
