Over the last two weeks, we've caught up on our branding, and fifteen more horses now bear our farm brand. Eleven from our breeding were branded on the left shoulder, and four that were bought were branded on the right. We likely won't be branding anything else for a good while.

In 2027, we will brand again, to put our mark on our retained foals and the rare outside horse added to our number if it should be the case. For horses that have a dark shoulder, we have them a white brand, which should allow the hair to grow back in. For horses with a white (or heavily varnished) shoulder, we gave them a 'black' brand, and the hair will not grow back at all. Our wonderful group of horses took this all in stride, from our yearling filly, Puff, all the way up to our biggest mare, Scarlett.

Now that we are caught up, our brand is available for circulation for foals from our program that have aged up enough to be branded. If you have a horse we bred that is at least 18mos old and want them branded, we will ship our brand to your vet (you pay return shipping) for them to be freeze branded on the left shoulder. If you are local to us, we will have nitrogen on hand for another few days if you would like to haul in and have it done here.

Polaris✨️ is BOLD, not just his personality and presence, but also his amazing color!

If you could have a Sugarbush Draft c**t like this in your barn, what would be your dream color combination?

After losing Versailles, Citadelle took it very hard 💔🐴. We moved her to another mare, our wonderful Scarlett, who is Puff's dam. But it was clear that she was depressed. We did our best to distract her and give her opportunities to entertain herself, but it was slow going.

It took her several weeks to perk back up, to play again, and to do more than stick with her adopted mom, eat, and sleep. She was grieving the only other horse she had ever known, her beloved dam. We haven't posted her as a result, because we don't like to make a spectacle of suffering. Our animals deserve a little more dignity than that.

In the last week or so, she has finally been socializing with the other babies, been playing, and leaving Scarlett's side to explore the paddocks. Baby steps for our beautiful little girl, but things are looking up 🌈

There is a lot that goes unseen in the workings of a farm. The animals and nature that know no ownership, but are necessary to maintain the balance.

It's our duty to offer help when it's asked for, especially by our native pollinators. This new swallowtail was desperate for a drink but couldn't seem to locate any water puddles despite being in a barn with tons of full buckets and troughs. Rather than leave him to struggle and spending energy he didn't need to when freshly out of the coccoon, we made sure he got a drink, and was relocated to someplace on the farm less populated with hungry barnyard fowl.

We received a lot of questions when we announced Vexin's return- the main thing was, is Praline there too?

Yes, she is. We had the opportunity to bring both Vexin and Praline here. However, we are at a crossroads with this beautiful girl. Her stupendous dam, ASHDA Hall of Famer, Classic Dark Godiva, as well as both another daughter, granddaughter, and grandson, currently live here. At this point, it feels a little greedy!

So, with a few caveats, we will be tentatively offering this stupendous ASHDA mare.

The first cavaet is that she MUST remain active in the breed. Either as a show horse, a broodmare, a breed ambassador, preferably all of the above, even just a working horse that can continue to help spotlight the great versatile abilities and sweet temperament of the breed! She also MUST go to a home that will keep her breeders, our good friends at Texas Dotted Drafts, updated on her within reason.

Praline, TDD's TexasPralinesNCream, is a 2019 Main Book ASHDA mare. She is one of just FIVE full draft mares in the Main Book that are not outside Improvement mares, and one of only two not to be founding line, and she is the only one of all of those horses to have a Hall of Fame dam. Praline has a show and ambassador record, is 7panel negative, is broke to ride, has been to Breyerfest and other huge events. She trail rides, has been started in harness, is super personable and sweet. She is no drama in a herd, to haul, and stays fat on air. She is UTD on coggins, shots, deworming etc.

Bred to ANY ASHDA registered or Approved stallion with main book breeding rights, she can produce another Main Book foal. She is a total outcross to all founding line stallions not descended from her dam. If we didn't have her dam, her sister, her niece... she'd be staying. And if we don't find the absolute best place for her, she'll be staying. And if she's still here in the spring, she may just have a hot date with Rocket, and then she REALLY won't be going anywhere.

This is a perfect mare to start a program with. She comes with an existing show record, a fantastic, established damline pedigree, is already going amazing undersaddle, and is the perfect age. For people looking to really start (or continue!) their Sugarbush journey with a bang, we would also consider a package deal with her and Puff, giving you two completely unrelated high quality mares; one already ready to ride, show, and breed, and one coming up that already has her baby basics.

This is an amazing opportunity to own a daughter of one of the most recognizable mares in the breed, her only full draft daughter as well. And if we don't find the perfect place for her, it won't hurt our feelings to keep her, we know how well her bloodlines cross on ours! Just look at Leia, Kraken, Polaris, and Solo!

You don't see a c**t like this everyday. For being Medallionaire's first, he has really set the bar high 💪!

Polaris is already under contract, but if you want one like him in your barn, start planning your 2026 breedings! Medallionaire is standing next spring to a limited book of ApHC, AQHA, JC, AHA, ASHDA and SSB mares.
