The 2nd half of our 2024 breeding season has begun! First pairing is ES Hermione with Luck of the Irish (Ziggy). We are blown away by the quality of the c**t Hermione produced last year with our friend's stallion, GBR Rafiki! So we decided to see how she will do matched with our traditional stallion, Ziggy, the one who started it all for us here at Edoras Stables. Ziggy is retired from public stud services, but he is always happy to cover a mare or two at home ;)

*Please excuse our filthy horses. We got some much needed monsoonal moisture the last few days which has left our property a mucky mess. We are drying out again, but the ponies are still a mess. Lol!

A few teaser pics of a flashy yearling Grullo Gypsy c**t I'll be listing on consignment shortly. He's a handsome boy! 😍 Bred by Megan Kier of Goin' Baroque Ranch.

Happy 1st Birthday to our handsome bay roan c**t, ES Salvador Dalí! We are hoping to get him in front of the camera within the next couple days for some progress pictures. In the mean time, here he is at just 9 months old.

We are definitely excited about our 2025 foal crop 😜

06/25/2024

It's been a strange year here at Edoras Stables with no foals due in 2024. It's the first time in about 2 decades we haven't had mares due. It wasn't our intention to take the year off, but sometimes the mares just have other plans.

That being said, we are happy to announce that our first group of mares have been confirmed in foal for spring 2025! We will be breeding a second group of 2-3 mares for late summer foals as well. We have some exciting matches in the works!

Our first one due for 2025 is our maiden mare, ES Moonlight Sonata, bred to our young stallion, ES Frodo Baggins, due April 8, 2025.
Next up is Pumpkin, in foal to our heavy traditional stallion, GBR Gandalf The White, due April 20, 2025.
And the final mare of the group is ES Daenerys, bred to our young stallion, ES Frodo Baggins, due April 22, 2025.

These foals will most likely be available after they are born. :)

Frodo's first foal has arrived!!! He is the proud papa of this adorable grulla Gypsy x Icelandic filly who arrived at 9 this morning. Congratulations to her owners! 🥰🎉😁

Happy Memorial Day!

All gave some. Some gave all.

Thank you to all the men, women, and animals who gave the ultimate sacrifice to help protect our freedom

"I won't buy a weanling for that"

Then breed your own

"I won't buy a 2 year old for that"

Then breed your own and raise it for 2 years

"I won't buy a broke horse for that"

Then breed your own, raise it, and pay a trainer yourself

And again for the people in the back,
👏THEN👏 MAKE👏 ONE👏 YOURSELF.👏

Your lack of budgeting is no longer everyone elses problem..... the horse market FINALLY has made it profitable to make nice horses, and if you don't support that, then you support garbage markets that led to the reduction in quality horses being made and an influx of low quality horses hitting slaughter pipelines.

Quality breeders are finally getting their dues

Support that.

These boys! 🥰😍

We just love these young half-brothers, our stallion prospects, ES The Altan Pharaoh (ES Tiramisu X Desert Jewel Duster - 10 months old) and ES Frodo Baggins (ES Tuilelaith X Desert Jewel Duster - 3 years old).

Frodo is available to a few outside mares this season. Let us know if you would like to arrange a date for your mare :)

Sweet Potato says, "Don't forget to 'spring' forward tonight!"

So excited for longer evenings and more pony time!!! 😁

ES Samwise Gamgee and our stallion, ES Rórdán will both be joining the gelding club today! Samwise will be staying here for a couple weeks to recover before heading to his new home in Grand Junction. Rórdán will be staying here to be Apples's buddy/roommate, and learn to be a riding and driving horse.

While gelding is a routine procedure, we always worry anytime horses have to be put under heavy sedation. And gelding older horses has a slightly higher risk for things to go wrong. We would appreciate any prayers, well wishes, good juju, etc. that can be sent our way. Thank you

Once upon a time, many moons ago, my mom was an enabler. Lol! That's how we ended up with our mare, Kizzie a.k.a. The Spice Tree Mare. My mom fell in love with her at the BFSGH Open House and Auction back in 2007. She was (and still is) the sweetest filly/mare, falling asleep with her head on my mom's shoulder. I was a sucker for her gorgeous blue eyes 😍 So, we decided to make her ours!
Kizzie is the dam to our mare, ES The Sage Filly (Sweet Potato), granddam to our stallion, GBR Gandalf The White (Apples), our mares ES Edelweiss, ES Moonlight Sonata, ES Dear Prudence, and our gelding, ES The Moody Blues. And great granddam to our filly, ES Sweet Magnolia. We love our Kizzie girl, and the legacy she has given us

We are getting our first significant blizzard of this winter season with very high winds! Even the barn and stalls are full of snow! Thank goodness Gypsy Horses have lots of hair
