“Saffron” chunky hairy and sooooo cute ❤️

Juniper’s Winter coat certainly shows up the Roan although you can still see the silver dapples hidden under there too. Will be really interesting to see what she sheds out like this Summer 🤔

So some of you will know that Pete and I have been struggling with ongoing health problems over the last 12 months and with age catching up with us we have come to the very hard decision to close down the stud and cease from breeding. I have been downsizing slowly and now only have 4 horses remaining all of which will be looking for new homes. However so as not to leave anyone alone I will selling them as I see fit. This is not a fire sale and please don’t expect any bargains.
I will let them go when the right home comes along for each of them unless someone wishes to take more than one.
In respect of this the first 2 I’d like to rehome are the youngsters Juniper and Saffron.

Juniper is the only filly in Australasia with this breeding and colour, she is a very hard one to put a price on so presently I am putting her up for tender, if you would like to make an offer on her then please contact me privately and tell me of the sort of home she would be going to and your price for her. I reserve the right to refuse any offer I do not deem acceptable.

My two movie stars, Punkin and Saffron on Country Calendar

04/05/2024

Tonight Sunday 5th May, Country Calendar TV 1 at 7pm
This episode features Lucy Russell from Equus Veterinary. Lucy is who I entrust with foaling down my mares each season. Punkin and Saffron were at Lucy’s while filming was taking place so may get a mention 😊

Can’t see Juniper’s feather lasting the Winter when she’s already standing on it 🤦‍♀️

E0I “ Stonehill Saffron” Purebred Filly
Eeaa 25/10/23. Sadly we have decided to make Saffron available to a new home. She will be ready to leave around June/July time when she has been weaned.
She is the only foal offered for sale by our stallion “Stonehill Barleycorn” as he doesn’t stand to public stud. Very hard decision for us so please no time wasters. She is PSSM and FIS negative and should mature in the 13 hh range. Reg NZGCA
Beautifully put together little filly that we feel has a bright future ahead of her

Not a day goes past that I don’t think of sweet Velvet, her presence is so sorely missed. Still just breaks my heart 💔😢

A flashback to baby Barley

20/03/2024

A sign of the babies growing up is when they move from the baby headcollar into the leather one which normally fits from about 5 months which is what Saffron is now

It already seems like colder Autumn weather and Juniper certainly seems to be growing a darker coat again

My neighbour moved her mare and foal into the adjoining paddock which sparked some interest from my nosy lot 😂

Cute, Cheeky, Cuddly, Chunky Coblet ❤️

Not so lucky with a black tail for Juniper but think we’ll put up with any amount of washing to have a Silver Roan 😍

A black tail is always a bonus !
