I don't breed until June cos it snows a lot here in Italy, by the time it all melts and the grass comes back it is May. I like my mares to be on grass before they foal cos it takes a while for there tummies to get used to it so I don't want them getting the runs if they are producing milk. Jmho

They both look great, thanks for sharing:)

Thanks for telling me!

Just want to show you guy's Dreams new boyfriend for this years breeding! He is the one and only Dell Tera's Checkers!! I am so thrilled and excited that my friend is allowing me to use this boy, she is very close to him, and usually does not allow outside mares to breed to him. Words cannot describe how happy I am!

Hoping for a red splash or frame overo filly! Keeping my fingers crossed!

Here are some pictures of the famouse boy! <3

Oh wow,that stud is handsome, and what a pretty mare, not to mention the cute little baby! Excited to see what they will make for next year.
 
Hey everyone!

Wow, this thread seems a bit slow..lol, so many new foals! Just love it!

I just want to show you guys some pictures of Crystal all shaved, had to shave her, she was very uncomfortable with all the hair, but I do blanket her at night, because its still a wee bit cold.

Crystal has a best friend, they always whinnie to each other when they pass by each other, so I always put them out together in the arena. Here are some pictures of them having fun!

I just love it when they play with their buddies. They look like really good friends!!!

She looks good!! Lots of running and playing! Just great!
They are the best of friends, if I could put them in a stall and keep them together, I would..but Crystal is a bit of a food hog, so no one can go with her in her stall lol! But might I say, she is way thinner then I thought she was! After I shaved her I could make another mini with all her hair.

Thank you! She had a blast today, I need to let all the mares out together, well, at least the ones that aren't alpha's. o_O

Yes, sometimes it really surprising how much winter fur they grow! I know what you mean about making another horse. I have a few here that are like that -- and I'm always surprised when they're clipped -- they look so much smaller without all the hair!!
totally! My trainer and I were standing with Crystal and she said "Wow...I really didn't know how small she was until now." Lol, she is tiny, I was thinking about breeding her to Dream's last boyfriend, Rio, but I realized today that she is way smaller then I thought, and Rio just is not the one for her. He is refined enough, but he is a little bit taller then her, and my trainer suggested to breed her to a smaller stallion since she is a maiden mare.

How tall is she, and how tall is the stallion you are talking about?

A lot more depends on the "refinement" of the stallion you breed her to -- as a maiden, I mean -- than just height. If the stallion is refined, and won't be throwing any "fat, chunky boned foals" then you can go a bit taller than her. It looks like she has a nice hip for carrying and delivery, but you will want to make sure you choose a stallion who is refined and "slim" boned.
She is 31 1/2 inches tall. The stallion is 32-33 inches tall. The stallion that I am breeding her to is 29-30 inches tall, he is a lot smaller then her and way more refined. Here are the two stallions that my friend has. The one on the left is Rio, the one I am not breeding her too, and then Taz, the one I am breeding her too.

OH, this should be an outstanding baby!!! Wonderful selection for her. They are both beautiful -- but Taz looks like the perfect match for her. Expect something LOUD next year!!!

(And we better be invitied to watch!!!)
I am VERY VERY thrilled and excited to have these boy's in my life, and have a wonderful friend that is letting me breed my mare to her stallions. Thank you so much! I Can't wait to see what Taz and her produce!! Yes Must be LOUD! Crystal carries the red gene, black gene, cream gene, and possibly sabino and splash, and Taz carries the black gene, and possibly the red gene, so I am hoping for a black overo...any gender is fine, but I would "prefer" filly!

You are MORE then welcome to join! I am hopefully going to have marestare up for next year, we are getting our new place, so I will have our mini's on our property, so fingers crossed that we are able to get marestare up!!! If I can't get marestare up, then I will be posting tons of pictures of her progress. Taz has the most beautiful head, I am most excited to see what head I get beyond anything else LOL!!

Here is another picture of his head, I am just in love! <3

Dream has been exposed to Dell Tera's Checkers for 2013 foal!! She was vet checked and approved for this years breeding!

My friend owns him, and I am so excited that I am breeding my mare to him! All they can have is reds!! I am hoping for a red overo, I don't mind if its a colt, but I would prefer filly of course!

Hey Everyone!!

Gosh, I haven't been on in a LONG time! I miss you guys!

I got some news, and some pictures of Ice and I shaved Crystal so I am going to share some of her all shaved pictures.

I have recently decided that I am going to breed Dream back to Rio, the black splash overo that she was bred to last year, I really liked how Ice came out conformationally wise, now all I need is color!! So I am very excited for that!

Here are some pictures of Ice and Crysal!
