Look at that baby bump! 9.5 months in for Sofee..another 1.5 months to go. She is getting along so well, and the baby is growing fast now.
Fun fact: This foal is now the size of a dalmatian and is growing about 1 pound per day!
We can't wait to see this baby! Based on ultrasound we believe it is a filly, but you never know.

Since it is our wedding anniversary month, we wanted to timehop back and share some of our favorite pictures from that time. Loved this horse, Max, so much. He was such a big part of our lives.

We are home and settled in from another great year at the Georgia Draft Horse Association National Fair show. We have to thank our amazing horse trainer and friend Lahut’s Horse Training John Lahut for his patience, skill and dedication.

This was a great year for us because we won in so so many ways. (This is long but worth the read. I have attached a video with snippets from the show. I encourage you to watch.)

Molina (Regalus' Box of Chocolates) has made a remarkable recovery from a fractured coffin bone and was able to attend the show, competing in the LD Mare Halter class and the obstacle course. She was amazing. Placed well, looked great, stayed 100% sound and overcame the anxiety that 10 months secluded in a stall will create.

Spark (Regalus' The Inferno Rages on) took home top honors (1st place) in the LD Stallion Halter class. Despite his age and inexperience off of our property, he kept himself together and was a real Rockstar. This guy is going to make some beautifully put together babies in the future.

Sugar (Thorpe Hill Sugar) placed 3rd and 5th in her undersaddle classes. These classes were huge, this was her 1st show ever, and she's just finding her balance and frame. We could not have been happier with the outcome. She tooke home high honors against some very seasoned Heavy Drafts. Way to go Sugar!! **and she's 4 months pregnant.

Woody (TCBV Bourbon and Chocolate) placed well in both of his classes and was the perfect gentleman. He is in a lanky stage and is growing fast so we did not have high expectations for Halter this year, but he blew us away. This stallion is becoming everything we dreamed of before he was ever born. We can't wait to see your babies. Woody and Spark and going to make huge marks on the Drum horse breed.

Sienna ( Regalus' Wild Fyre), like Woody, Sienna is in a huge growth period and in a lanky stage, so we were so happy that she placed well in her Halter class and she completed the obstacle course perfectly without a flinch. This girl is giagantic..almost 17hh at 2yrs old and she is exceeding our expectations every step of the way. She is a perfect depiction of the Drum Horse breed standard. How did we get so lucky?

So after an emotional and extremely fun weekend...we are glad to be back in green pastures. Looking forward to next year. It will be here before we know it.
There will be more pics in the coming days.

Thorpe Hill Sugar, imported Shire Mare

Look at her beautiful frame and extension!!
We can't wait to see her beautiful F2 Drum foal......coming May of 2025.

THIS FOAL WILL BE OFFERED FOR SALE. With the temperament and conformation of both Sugar and Axle Axle Blue Equine Services (Sire), he or she will be something special. From dressage to driving, and everything in between, there is not a more versatile breed than the Drum horse.

If you are interested in speaking with us about this foal, please contact us. We will be looking for a 10 ⭐️ home.

Molina ( Regalus' Box of Chocolates) update!!!

After 9..almost 10 months on strict stall rest, our beautiful girl has been released to start a little hand walking. Over time we will work our way slowly back into under saddle work.

This is the beginning of the next journey towards recovery. She is doing so well and we expect that in some months she will get back to where we left off in December 2023.

We can't believe how big this girl is getting. 19 months old and doing great with the saddle AND the bit. It will be a long time before she holds a rider..but she will be ready. Her confidence and presence amazes me at her young age! #chestnutfilly #drumhorse #ConfidentBeauty #onebigbaby #trainingforthefuture

Counting Our Blessings Day 3: A great and dedicated equine vet can be hard to find, but we are lucky to have 2 of the very best in our area, Elizabeth Gorrell and Heather Caplan Brass at Grand Strand Equine Veterinary Services. We have had some complicated and trying issues with horses over the years, and these ladies have always been there for us..day and night. We deffinately could not achieve our goals and have the program that we are developing without this amazing veterinary team. We are thankful daily that you chose our area to practice in! Thank you for your support, your knowledge, and the resources that you provide.

Regalus' Box of Chocolates After the show in October, we identified our weak points and made goals to take us into the next year. The walk to canter transition was the first on the list. This girl is a quick learner and is always ready to go. #practicemakesperfect #successtakestime #horsetraining #takeustothetop #lpdrumhorses #beautifulmovement

Happy Halloween 🎃 from Sofee and all of your friends at The Croft at Bucksville!
