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?!
