100% American Made Proudcts "AMERICAN FARMER PROUD TO BE BOTH"

10/21/2024

With my partner, both in life and horses, passing away tragically earlier this month, I've had to make some hard decisions because I can't do this all on my own without him. I have availble some super cool prospects that we've acquired together.
Muchomillied Dorado- cute little 2 year old MN bred TB filly. She's puppy dog gentle and has some growing to do! She's started on the ground but we planned to let her grow until 3. She stands a slender 14.2hh. I would be just as happy to see her in a non-racing home. She's a cribber, got her from the breeder like that. Wears a preventative muzzle without a fuss. No injuries, blank slate with a kind demeanor. Got bathed, trimmed and dewormed on this nice warm day.
Sp*edy G- got him this spring and raced him a couple of times but realized he's not interested in competing. That's okay, he doesn't need to be a racehorse anymore- non racing home only. Louie rode him all over this year and he camped with us too. He's a bit worried and anxious, but did great all year with Louie who is of course very confident. Someone who wants to take the time to build a relationship with him should get him to mellow right out.
Kiss N Biz- big good looking filly that came to us this spring needing turnout and downtime due to the stress of racing. No known injuries but she has been out to pasture all summer and still has those thin thoroughbred feet. I will probably throw front shoes on her if I bring her in and start working her again. She is track broke and I thought about keeping her to race, but she's had her time and would have a better life in a non racing home.
Weanling filly- Smooth as S***t x FQHR Storms McQueen. Super cute and gentle little weanling filly. She was born this spring and has been at my farm until weaning and now she's learning how to be an independent girl. Louie spent a ton of time with her and I had every intention of buying her for him if she was still here by this time but now that he is gone, I don't have the means to do that. Hopefully we can find a good home for her where she will have a future in ranch work or some kind of cow work. She is on consignment.


I have one more thoroughbred that I will eventually be looking to rehome as a family horse. She's a gentle filly who had a seismoid fracture and is currently doing stall rest. She's very sweet and gentle to handle even though she has been laid up. I think she will make a nice trail horse and she's not super tall either.

I want to thank everyone who has been so kind thoughtful and patient with me as I have been dealing with Louie's passing.

It is very sad but I will have to step back from training a little bit this coming and fall and winter, as Louie was our main trainer and I would just assist. Thank you to everyone who has trusted horses with us this year, it was definitely a pleasure seeing you all reach your goals.

We still have spots open for boarding, and we are all seasons equestrians around here. Lots to do to keep active through the winter months.

I'm growing attached to this one but she needs a home of her own! 😪

This sweet little unnamed AQHA filly was born May 30th, 2024. Shes by Smooth as S***t (info here http://www.century-stables.com/smooth-as-skeet) out of FQHR Storms Macqueen (papers in ad).
This filly is out of thick, cowy stock with proven performance records. She is already athletic and confident. So much basic handling and work has been done with her following her mama around in training and out on trails. Shes had her feet done and her ears clipped and stands tied. She never had a problem getting ahead and leading us out in the woods. Her mom is approximately 15.1 hands (see photos in ad). Many of Smooth ad S***t's offspring can be found started in performance careers in roping and cow work.
Enjoy raising your own filly the way you like and skip all the risk and wait of breeding. This filly is ready to be registered, you pick the name. She is located at J Squared Farm just west of Waupaca. Info in photos. Owner is asking $4000

I may have taught her how to ride but she fell in love with OTTBs all on her own 🤣 congratulations to Bella and the Chapa family on your new addition.

Phoenix is looking for a summer fling- could be long term if he finds the right one. Ideally we are looking for someone who doesn't have the means to own their own horse, who would like to enjoy the benefits of our lovely farm and horseback riding. We have arenas, trails and friends to enjoy it with. Ideally we'd be offering a part time lease- 2 or 3 days per week. For someone who is committed to lessons and barrel racing, we would consider a more serious lease and this could be discussed. Part time lease terms are $200 per month- vet and farrier paid by us. Leasing is a contract free, low risk and investment way to enjoy some horseback riding! Inquire via PM for Phoenix.
Located just West of Waupaca Wi

Going to look at all the positives of the last 12 hours of trying to get two horses home from Hawthorne with a blown out bearing on our trailer. When the tire popped on the side of 94 south of Milwaukee, I did a quick map search to see who could help late on a Sunday. I called A+ Truck and Trailer repair and soon I was back on the road with this kind gentleman following me to make sure I was getting along alright. He refused to charge me for his services and I told him he would be blessed. Please look them up and save the contact on your phone for any travels in SE Wisconsin. You don't meet many strangers that are willing to help you like family.

For those who are just getting started in breakaway roping or want to know a little bit more about what I use at my place, here are the products that I like the best.

First get a cheap horn knot. I really don't have a preference on these. They are pretty stiff when you get them so be prepared for a bit of a struggle until they loosen up. (I'm making a custom horn knot so I can be all fancy and such- I'll review that little project later 😉)

Nothing But Neck breakaway honda has been the easiest to install and works the best for me. I don't like a breakaway honda that is rigid, and this one is nice and flexible rubber. If you are having problems with it breaking when you rope, you can adjust how far you push in the rubber piece for an easier break away. This is good for training young horses who might get a little spooked if the rope catches and pulls on them.

My rope of choice is a Striker calf rope. I am right-handed and I like a 10.0. That's a true 3/8 in thickness. The higher the number the thicker the rope and the more stiff the rope gets. I like this size because I have small hands and I like my rope to be kind of light. If it were too lite, hiwever, I don't feel like I could swing it with as much feel.

The first four-strand calf rope with CoreTech, the Striker is the most consistent calf rope available. It is constructed from special synthetic polyester that will not stretch, increasing life and consistency. The four-strands give the Striker a smoother, faster feel than a polygrass, and the core s...

On demand roping practice?
The roping dummy isn't hard to hook up and it really isn't hard to get the cattle out and load them in the chute. So why not have on demand roping practice? Come when you are able, somebody will drag the dummy or work the chute for you. We will accommodate one person up to a group of 3 and book approximately 1 hour time slots. Come, get tacked up and warmed up and you will have at least a full hour with one of us to work on your breakaway roping skills. Send a message today to get booked on our schedule. Most week nights work, and weekends are up in the air right now.

Openings for training starting in November with Louie!
Problem solving, behavior correction, c**t starting and conditioning are all part of the services we offer. You can either let your horse sit all winter getting sour and fat, or you can get started on your goals for next year.
Louie's experience includes roughly 25 years of training thoroughbreds on the race track mixed in with training jumpers for a private farm in California. He is well known at the track for his abilities to work with the horses that need more foundation and confidence building before they race. He will be taking clients through early spring before we return to the track for the racing season. PM to discuss training needs and monthly pricing.

We have a couple of good horses who would enjoy more activity in their lives 🐎
Are you someone who enjoys nice long trail rides or putting around the farm? Are you knowledgeable of horses but don't have the time, space or means right now to own a horse?
J Squared Farm is offering a lease opportunity on a couple of our personal horses that we don't want to part with but would like to have get a little more time out doing things with humans. We are offering an onsight lease option that includes the cost of all the horse's cares and needs- you just pay board. This opportunity is not for beginners or minors. We have a few good horses to consider. PM for details!
