Lost Spoke Ranch · Mar 22, 2010

We have three more babies coming this spring, one more by Striker, Legend, and Catch. These two baby girls arrived in the month of March!

The first born was Lost Spoke's LS Miss Bee on March 8th. She's a Silver Bay with appaloosa characteristics. Bee's sire is AMHA World Top Ten Two Year old Futurity stallion, Lost Spoke's Lightening Strike aka Striker. Striker is a chestnut fewcap leopard. Bee's dam is Mini Go Rounds Precious Lady a silver bay mare.

Catch bred several mares after he came home from the AMHA World in November, so there may be several more foals coming this fall too!

Wow that is weird that the pinto breeding came out so strongly with an Appy mare and Catch, who shows mostly Appy coloration!!!

Congrats on your two fillies!! That is great! Cant wait to see more!

Not weird at all. Catch carries Tobiano and will produce foals with pinto body white 1/4 of the time. In January, he produced a black leopard colt (no pinto body white) out of a pintaloosa mare. Go figure!

We do breed appaloosa to appaloosa, but have decided not to limit ourselves to that goal and include pinto in part of our breeding program. We're actually really siked with the ability to produce a wider variety of loud color patterns!
