All of our 2018 foals have arrived.... See them below - all are sold!

Sirena - Update: Sirena gave birth to our first Custer baby on 8th. Sept. 2018, a cute little brown jack (Macon) that looks just like her. He is adorable and sweet.

Macon is sold....

Sadly, on the same day (10. Sept. 2018), we lost both Steffie's (spotted jack) and Pockets' (brown jack) foals. We almost lost Pockets but she is ok, after 10 days at the veterinarian, and over a month of recovery. She was supposed to get retired after this foal - so she will be available to a pet home only. Poor Pockets has been through so much! She is now fully recovered and is offered on our For Sale Page.

Marillya - Update: After an extremely stressful day, on 10. Sept. 2018, Marillya gave birth to a cute little FSW girl (Inaha), at about 10:30 pm. We needed this little "pick-up" after a rough day - and the baby is adorable. It is Cash's first baby, and it is stocky as he is. All thick curls, too - so may be a little woolly.

Inaha is sold....

Bunny - Update: Bunny gave birth to a cute little brown jack (Balero), out of Cash on 11. Sept. 2018. He is stocky and cute! And a little curly, too. Already on his second day, he tried to squeeze himself into the middle during a hoof trim (picture below). Bunny will be offered with her jack foal to a retirement home or they can be purchased separately.

Both are sold!

Mary - Update: Mary gave birth to a cute little steel gray, NLP girl (Andalusia) out of Custer on 14. Sept. 2018. She is a stocky little girl. She scared us, because every time we would touch her to pet her she couldn't catch her breath. We therefore didn't touch her as much. Now, she is slowly improving to where she can tolerate being pet more. Mary will be retired with this baby and will be offered along with her baby to a retirement home.

Andalusia is sold, Mary is still available...

Andina - Update: Andina gave birth to a dark brown girl (Zambezi) out of Tomahawk on 17. Sept. 2018. She was a little lenky at first, but now at 10 days she looks like she is starting to grow into her legs and widen out some. She loves to wrap herself around our legs - she is always there to demand her attention!

Zambezi is sold!

Star - Update: Star gave birth to a Gray/Brown little girl (Pecan) out of Cash on 19. Sept. 2018. She has the cutest small head, and is all curls! This seems to be a "Cash Trade". While the baby shows no faults at this point we feel that Star is not good breeding quality and will be offering her to a pet only home.

Pecan is sold...Star is still available.

Sahara - Update: Sahara gave birth to a light red boy (Moscato) out of Cash on 05. October 2018, the first full 12 months foal this fall. (All others have been early). He is a heavy boned boy. If he was a girl we would keep the baby but we cannot keep any more jacks. He will be offered for sale. His light red color does not show up well in the pictures. He has the same color as him moma (above). In the last picture he was just a couple of hours old and was still wet.

Moscato is sold!

Brazil - Update: Brazil gave birth to a very dark boy (Pizzaro) out of Custer on 10. October 2018. He is a cute baby that we would keep if he had been a girl. He will be offered for sale either with his mom or without. Mom will be retired...

Pizzarro and Brazil are sold!

Is-A-Bella bred to Firecracker

Is-A-Bella - Update: Is-A-Bella gave birth to a little cute brown jack foal (Teddy ) on 23. October 2018. Again, since this is her last baby we were hoping for a girl to keep, but we were blessed with another beautiful boy, instead. Both Is-A-Bella and her little boy will be offered for sale. Is-A-Bella will be retired.

Both Teddy and Is-A-Bella are sold!

Pam bred to Custer.

Pam - Update: Pam gave birth to our last baby for the season, a little cute very dark, NLP with star girl (Famosa) on 06. November 2018. I am already in love with her!

Famosa is sold!

Spring 2018 Foals

Piper bred to I-C-Hot Ice

Piper - Update: Piper had our first baby for the season on 31. March 2018 (Easter Saturday), and our first baby out of I-C-Hot Ice. We couldn't be happier with her red based frosted spotted white, little boy (Cinnamon Ice). (We may keep him to see how he develops - he looks promising at this time). We decided to offer this little boy for sale, simply because we have too many jacks with 5 breeding jacks.

Sold

Kelly bred to Gardner's Dusty Star

Kelly- Update: Kelly gave birth to a little very dark girl with forehead star on 03. April 2018. (Maluma). Maluma is friendly and adorable.

Maluma is sold!

Patty bred to Tomahawk (Swagger)

Patty - Update: Patty delivered our first baby out of Tomahawk (Swagger) on 06. April. 2018 (Monsoon). A beautiful, heavy boned very dark girl. She doesn't have a single light hair on her. Patty is one of my favorite girls so we are keeping little Monsoon. She got her name since it would never stop raining...

Madeira bred to Firecracker

Madeira - Update: Madeira gave birth to our first "Firecracker" baby on 13. April 2018 (Carmelo). He is a stunning, beautiful, proud looking, compact, little red boy!

Carmelo is sold!

BabyDoll bred to I-C-Hot Ice

Baby Doll - Update: Baby Doll gave birth to a little brown/red, bay pattern boy on 15. April 2018 (Ronaldo). He is a cute and huggable little guy!

Ronaldo is sold!

Anna May bred to Perfection's Blackout

Anna May - Update: Anna May gave birth to a tiny, very dark little jack with tiny star on 18. April 2018 (i-Dot). He loves attention, and let's me know when he doesn't get it, by tugging on my pants legs.

I-Dot is Sold!

Joey bred to Tomahawk (Swagger)

Joey - Update: Joey and Tomahawk outdid themselves with this stunning little girl! She was born on 21. April 2018 (Exotic Marble?) and I cannot take my eyes off her.

Exotic Marble is sold to Germany!

Harli bred to Tomahawk (Swagger)

Harli - Update: Harli gave birth on 23. April 2018 to a cute brown/gray little jack "Amos" out of Tomahawk. He has been very friendly from the very beginning.

Amos is Sold!

Tickled Pink bred to Firecracker

Tickled Pink - Update: Tickled Pink was just huge! She gave birth this morning (25. April 2018) to a what looks like red based frosted spotted white little girl. We are keeping her since she is not related to our red based frosted spotted white jacks.

Zinnia (on left) bred to Firecracker

Zinnia - Update: Zinnia gave birth to a little red girl on 25. May 2018 (Zenani). She looks to have Firecracker's little head and beautiful dark red color. Zinnia loves her little girl and is still very protective of her. Top row pictures at 2 days of age and bottom row over 2 weeks of age.

While we were wanting to keep Zenani she is sold to Germany.

Vienna bred to I-C-Hot Ice

Vienna- Update: Vienna gave birth to a little brown girl on 06. June 2018 (Athena) that looks just like her. Her legs are a little bit long but we are sure she will grow into them quickly since neither of her parents have long legs. She is a sweet girl! At 6 weeks of age she has grown into her legs : ).

Athena is sold...

Jolie bred to I-C-Hot Ice

Jolie- Update: Jolie gave birth to a cute dark spotted (with lots of red) boy (Jabez) on 23. June 2018. She had been bagged up for over a month and waited until I went out of town to have her baby. She also picked the one night Freddie didn't check on her. All is well. The wait was definitely worth it! What a beautiful boy!

Jabez is sold to Germany!

The following three foals were born to mothers that we purchased/saved from unfortunate circumstances. They will be offered for sale to a permanent home.

Sweet Mama - Update: Sweet Moma gave birth to a tiny, light gray boy (Clover Bud) on 04. October 2018. He was a little bit skimpy and weak but already at 3 days of age has changed a lot since birth. His color is that beautiful light silver that we love, that has been bred out over the past decade or so. It is really difficult to find (we would love to have some girls his color). He will be offered with or without his mom to a non-breeding home. His moma will be retired! Both are offered on our For Sale Page.

Clover Bud and Sweet Mama are sold!

Jodie- Update: Jodie gave birth to a gray boy that is super sweet on 27. May 2018 (Kenyon). He loves the wheelbarrow and chases it when we go and dump it. Top pics at 1 month of age, bottom pics at 3 days of age. Jodie and Kenyon are sold.

Kenyon is sold!

Bakita Update: Bakita gave birth to a little gray boy on 28.April 2018 (Kale). His mom came to us super stressed and little Kale had a difficult start. He is perfectly fine now. He as well is super friendly, as much so that it is very difficult to take pictures of him because he follows you everywhere.
