Sometimes, when you strike gold, you gotta go for it!

Those who have been longtime followers will know that it's been a pretty long while since we've added an outside ApHC mare to our Appaloosa band. We've looked at several, and even had a few we bought that ended up not making the cut as broodmares. We are very selective about our program! An Appaloosa mare we look at for our program needs papers, a pedigree with bloodlines we value, correct conformation, great gaits, a good mind, clean genetics, and more! We want healthy, trainable, beautiful foals. And to get those, you need two parents that embody all of those traits as well. A breeding program is built on mares. Over the last few years, we've been casually looking for the next addition to our band, but nothing stood out. We knew what we wanted and wouldn't compromise.

So, imagine our surprise when this beautiful gal turned up in our neck of the woods!

Say hello to BRIGHT AND SHINY, aka "Shine"! She is an 11 year old palomino snowflake ApHC mare. She is also qualified CRHA and ABRA Buckskin Bred. She is 8panel NN and tested ee aa CRcr and LPlp. Her pedigree boasts many lines we treasure and admire like Bright Eyes Brother, High Hand, Ocala Might, and Shining Spark, and of course she is qualified through her sire as a Colorado Ranger, which will make all of her future ApHC foals able to be dual registered.

She is so sweet and just pretty as a picture with her dapples and a lovely face. We will be continuing her undersaddle training with a goal towards finishing her out in Ranch and Western Dressage. In the spring, our hope is to cross her on our Colida bred red dun fewspot stallion, Medallionaire, and we feel she will be a great cross on our junior stallion, Twisted Revenge, as well!

It's been a long time since we've had a beautiful palomino in our herd. We love seeing the contrast out in our herd of duns, bays, and black horses! (And, as a bonus, she CAN'T have a bay foal unless we cross her on something with a bay base!)

Stay tuned for more updates on beautiful Miss Shine✨️

Announcement Regarding Halloween!

We are sad to inform our local followers that we will not be opening the farm for Trick-or-Treating this year. We usually have 3-4 stations open to receive candy and treats, between the main house, bunkhouse, the green cottage, and sometimes also the barn.

This year, we have been put through the ringer between our vet bills and playing catch-up after such a tough spring and summer. So, after some discussion, we have decided to take a step back. Our usual Halloween efforts take about a week to set up, and enough candy to rival a trailer load of roundbales in cost. But, we just don't have it this year, the energy or the extra fun money that it takes to pull off.

We've loved doing this for the community, to give kids a safe street where they can hit several spots all close together with several photo ops, tons of candy, and a chance to meet our horses. We usually see hundreds of kids, which is a big deal considering our little town has a population of around a thousand! This is not a decision we came to lightly, as everyone who knows us knows that Halloween is the holiday we look forward to all year, and we often spend months planning costumes and sourcing new decorations, and constructing new themes for each trick or treat station.

We are going to take things easy and spend time with our family. We will miss seeing all of the kids in their costumes this year! Hopefully, some others in town will help carry the torch while we take a breather!

We are finally free of The Crud and have been spending the last few days playing catch up with farm chores and whatnot. The babies are all growing like weeds and have been enjoying the cooler, rainy weather by playing in the mud! Weaning will be soon, so if you've been enjoying driving by and watching the babies play in the front paddocks, take in that sweet view while it lasts! In about three weeks, they will be moving to their new pen, and the front paddocks will be off rotation for a little while to let the grass recover.

If you've noticed things have been a little quiet, we've all been horribly sick, but we're about out of the woods with the coughing, snotting, and whatnot. As soon as we beat this crud, we'll be back open for business!

Fans and followers, we need some help!

We are trying to track down a mare we bred. This is Dashing Co Quette, a 2013 snowcap mare by Colida SkipNTwist and out of Brook's Dashing Gal. She has gone through several owners since we sold her and the last person we talked to DID NOT get her papers and was unaware she was registered, so somewhere along the line she has lost her identity. She is varnished. But hopefully she has enough of her pattern left to be identifiable. We would like to get her reunited with her identity at the very least, and can DNA parentage verify to her sire to ensure it. She is her dam's only foal, and one of only a few daughters remaining of our old stallion, so her bloodlines are definitely worth preserving. These are the most recent photos we have of her, in 2019 and 2017.

She has NO leg markings, and a small star, and also had a large spot on her left cheek. She had a few small dark spots in her snowcap blanket. Her last known location was Lincoln, Nebraska. As we said, she has been separated from her papers, the last owner we spoke to did not realize she was registered. Her last known barn name was 'Marley'.

We'd very much like to find this mare and give her back her identity, and we'd like to remind owners of our foals that if you do need to sell, please contact us! We are asked nearly every day if we have something from our program that is riding age or trained to ride, believe us, there is a market if you ever need to sell your foal from us and we can help you place it. We want to keep track of our babies, we are proud of them! Let us know if you have any information. We are offering a reward for anything that results in us finding this mare alive and being able to confirm her identity.

Citadelle with her cousin Puff, and Puff's aunt, Gator.

It has been a hard year, with the loss of Citadelle's dam, our beloved Versailles. Seeing these moments does help. And we'd like to thank all of our followers for their continued support. Versailles' hospital stay and her at home care for the month and a half afterward were extremely expensive. If you want to help, be sure to interact with our posts, especially our videos! Our P.a.treon will also be launching soon, so stay tuned for some awesome extra content for our top fans!

Happy friday from Gator🐊!
