In true Chickboxer fashion, she snuck her filly out today when no one was watching. Minimal calcium, pH still high, udder not looking ready... look out in the field this afternoon and see a little gold blitz running behind her in the pasture 😱

Vet check tomorrow, but everything seemingly looks perfect. A perfect palomino GRP cross filly by Milky Way (FS Mr Right x Danny Gold).

This girl is a very special custom request as a future eventer and is EXACTLY what the doctor ordered, down to the gender. 3 socks, big white face.

Welcome Muse D'or OHW (Milky Way x Chickboxer)

Congratulations to her very deserving mama. ❤️

We are one week post breeding for our Velantis (Vitalis x Floriscount) x Atokad Rose cross, so we will check for pregnancy next week!

It's the year of the red stallion, I guess!

Raising young horses is one of the most rewarding parts of what I do. There’s nothing quite like watching the results of careful planning, research, and hard work come together.. seeing each cross grow into a confident, capable young horse that reaches new milestones month after month, year after year.

The little things we do early on make a big difference down the road. From light lunging and introducing tack, to getting comfortable with bridles and bits, it’s all about setting them up for success when the time comes to start under saddle as 3-year-olds.

Lately, we’ve added even more building blocks to their foundation—teaching our youngsters to side pass and line up at the mounting block. Small skills now, but they’ll make for safer, more willing, and more thoughtful partners in the future.

There’s just something special about watching them learn, grow, and step into the horses they’re meant to become. ❤️

We're starting to work toward the class of 2027 this week, so it feels appropriate to do our next "Meet the Mare". I think these are so helpful for future foal owners to see the "why" behind the mamas that I choose.

Atokad Rose (Sports Talk x Devil His Due) - affectionately known as Kitty in the barn. Its no secret that when my life allows it, I enjoy the occasional rehab/retrain/resell of select OTTBs. In 2022 when I was at the local track picking up another sweet soul, the owner said to me "hey - if you have room on the trailer I have one I want you to see. She's slow, she's too fat, and she hates this lifestyle". Curiosity peaked, I agreed to take a look. There, in the stall, was a napping Kitty with her roommate - a small goat. Without knowing anything about her other than she was too fat for a racehorse, too slow for a racehorse, and too unmotivated for a racehorse, I bought her. When she stood up, I gasped. She was STUNNING. She was everything I loved in my sport horses. Short coupled, shorter hind leg, uphill, strong over the top, and just plain gorgeous. When she moved for the first time at home, I was elated. She floated. She was amazing without trying. Her sit, ability to collect, and free shoulder was the grade A example of what I wanted to produce in my foals.

Determined to keep myself on track with my original goal of reselling, I decided I would ride her and market her that fall. Safe to say after a few months of enjoying every single ride, that plan quickly failed. Her mind matched her talent, her work ethic was to die for, and she was SO fun. And the rest is history with my beautiful girl.

Since then, Kitty has given me 3 absolutely stunning foals. They all have her ability to sit back, collect, and carry themselves exactly how I want them for dressage. So far her line up of foals is:

-2024 c**t by Bodo EDI (Bon Couer x Freudenprinz)
-2025 c**t by Monterey (Morricone x Sir Donnerhall)
-2026 filly by Sarkozy (Sandro Hit x Weltmeyer)

Kitty will be bred to Velantis N for a 2027 foal. It will be a half sibling to our beloved Versace OHW and available in utero. Small deposit required - refunded if I can't provide you a live, healthy foal. Tons of past foal buyer references available.

Kitty's foals are my most sought after, so far. Here's your chance ❤️

Formally introducing our newest arrival, Kaleidoscope OHW. Tia did phenomenal with this c**t and we are so pleased. He passed his vet check with flying colors this morning and is already sold.... to an OHF'er 🫣🥰.

Kaleidoscope OHW - Kaiman (Dark Pleasure x Gribaldi) x Tia's Mischief (Maximus Mischief x Uncle Mo)

Tia will be bred to Finnigan (Floriscount x Don Schufro) this year and that foal will be available in utero.

More tomorrow.... but here's a sneak peak!

We had a LONG week. We were on day 6 of no sleep when we welcomed the second foal of the week into the world... the one we've been waiting anxiously for.

The cherry on top? He sold within MINUTES of birth.

Welcome to the world...

Kaleidoscope OHW (baby Scope) - Kaiman (Dark Pleasure x Gribaldi) x Tia's Mischief (Maximus Mischief x Uncle Mo).

Tia is the best mom in the world and we are ALL over the moon. Us girls decided that we deserved a glass of champagne while we celebrated this perfect boy hitting all of his milestones within 1.5 hours.

For now, we sleep. More photos tomorrow ❤️

Thank you isn't enough, but I couldn't have made it through this week without Josslyn Leach Darcey Kellogg Marrissa Kellogg

We may have one foal on the ground but there's no rest for the wicked!

The girls and I are keeping our midwife hats on for 4 more foals this year, two of them coming in the next 30 days! It's pretty steady for us from here until June (and don't forget breeding season ramps up in there, too!)

Next up is a mare owned by a friend of ours, a future racehorse foal 🐎.

Shortly after that is our next foal from Tia!

Kitty knocked it out of the park this morning. A perfect bay filly (just what the doctor ordered) by Sarkozy. She is so friendly and modern and perfect!! Mama is foot perfect as always.

Since she was born with the correct (haha) plumbing, she is sold and heading to Wisconsin after weaning ❤️

Name TBD - Sarkozy (Sandro Hit x Weltmeyer) x Atokad Rose (Sports Talk x Devil His Due).
