Windtanzer and Sagan are IN FOAL!

Breeding season 2014 came to a close with two exciting conceptions.  Windtanzer was confirmed in foal to Rotspon, her first pregnancy with frozen semen.   Sagan, already a proven frozen dam  with her first foal, also checked in foal to the lovely Grand Prix Dutch stallion Netto (Negro/Purioso/Nimmerdor) and we are really excited about this cross.

Netto, pictured below, is in great demand with very limited semen in the U.S. this year.   We will be offering this foal in-utero with colt and/or filly options when Sagan safely reaches her second trimester.

Tanzer's foal will hopefully be a 'keeper' as this kind and very amateur friendly young mare is my dream performance horse and I would like to have a 'grandchild' from her.    Rotspon has already graced us with the spectacular colt Rhylen out of Sagan, and I believe the cross with Tanzer will be equally wonderful both physically and mentally.    Now the LONG wait until spring of 2015...

Rhylen Turns 6 Weeks Old

Rhylen, Sagan's Rotspon colt, turned 6 weeks old today.   We had a little 'Romper Room' session for those who (like me) are old enough to remember the children's T.V. show, introducing the Jolly Ball.   We had a blast, and Cealea and I even tried a little game of 'Monkey in the Middle,' but Rhylen wasn't quite ready to intercept the ball in flight.   Next 'recess' we'll break out the Hula-Hoop, a favorite of our fillies.

The little boy is a stout athletic package with wonderful bone and great feet like momma, and a playful personality.   We liked the cross so much we decided to try Rotspon with Tanzer, who appears to loath frozen semen.   The stallion is known as the 'fertility god' of frozen sires, so with a little luck we may have a younger sibling on the way?!
