Our Mare Herd

We love Smoky Cream, Perlino and Cremello horses

(and lately, black horses)

"People love to give all the credit to the stallions... But you show me any successful horse breeding program that has endured over the years, and I'll show you a program that is built around broodmares"

-Hank Wiescamp-

We believe the stallion puts a lot of the physical into the mix, abilities and looks. We picked Why's line and Smoky Cream color for both of these. We believe the mares put attitude into the mix. All our mares are kind, gentle and willing. They want to please and keep on trying. Our dream is to raise using horses that are easy to look at and easy to ride. We hope we are on the right track.

Time will tell....

Summer of 05 - Dream and the girls

We've bought some, sold some and have the girls shuffled around so that the whole herd consists of only mares with a big hearted mindset. They all have that special attitude we are looking for.

BECAUSE OF THE DOWN-TURN IN THE HORSE INDUSTRY, WE FEEL THAT THE RESPONSIBLE THING TO DO IS CUT WAY BACK ON BREEDING YOUNG HORSES FOR SALE, SO HAVE HAD TO SELL OFF SOME OF THE MARES THAT WE WOULD HAVE RATHER KEPT.

Feb. 2011 - We are no longer breeding at all. Most of the mares are gone. We still have their pics up because we still miss them and wish times had stayed good for horses.

JFS Thunder Road Her AQHA lines go back to Poco Bueno, Three Bars & Leo. Our little red dun mare gave us a nice palomino foal from a lineback palomino stud. We crossed our fingers and hoped for color, it was a 50/50 chance at best. With Why's smoky cream genetics we have the added possibility of a buckskin as well as a palomino. She has been confirmed for a spring 2010 foal. SOLD

A Classie Cool She is registered APHA but is mostly Quarter bred. Her lines go back to Leo (x 3), Joe Reed and Poco Bueno. She is built, has a big soft eye and a quiet, kind manner. A real nice horse to ride with a big walk and a rocking horse canter. She is bred for 2010. SOLD

Bonitas Tuff Cookie This cremello AQHA mare was purchased in foal and she delivered a cute as a button smoky black filly on Jan 3rd 08. She had a Perlino filly from Why in May of 09 that is truly outstanding looking. The filly will be for sale when weaned. She is 96.88% foundation bred. Both fillys have received her nice easy going nature. She is bred for a 2010 foal. SOLD

"Princess Turkey" aka Glory "So named because she is the favorite of the grandkids". She is gaited, has a nice body and a cute face with big soft eyes. Wonderful feet. Super gentle and well broke. Sweet attitude. A trusted riding horse for both adults and the kids and visitors. She's one of those horses that, once you have her, you can't imagine how you got along without her. She'll be the very last horse we have on the farm.

Glory passed on in Dec. 2010, there is a huge hole in our hearts.

Lad's Baby Doll We bought this mare in foal and she delivered a fantastic Walkaloosa colt in the spring of 09, he is already sold. Gary is about to find out if this is the riding horse he has been looking for. She is open for 2010. SOLD

Coal Black Diamond Leza's new riding mare, a registered Fox Trotter. She is beautiful and sweet natured but a little flighty. Time will tell if we can make the bond.

Lady Sashay Our very first foal, now grown into a gentle, sensible mare with four excellent foals of her own. She is APBHR registered and is a TW/TB cross. She goes back to Merry Go Boy and Jet Pilot & War Admiral. She can run fast and forever. A great Gymkhanna horse, and a head down, well broke trail horse. Sold to our daughter, stays here on the farm.

Lucks Moon Dial is a real nice old AQHA Grulla mare. She has one of the most comfortable shuffling trots we've ever had the pleasure to ride. Her lope is smooth also. She is gentle and very steady out on the trail. She is cinchy, but that is a past training issue. Almost anyone can ride her, she's real broke. She'll live out her life right here.

Dollys Policy A quiet, gentle AQHA mare with heavy Wiescamp breeding. She goes back to Skipper W at least 10 times. She is quiet, soft and steady. She is fast, built for barrels. Has a nice easy trot. Super trail horse. She is confirmed in foal for 09. SOLD

CR Snowflake APHA registered. She is almost all white with blue eyes, has just a few red speckles. She is broke to death and trained, trained, trained. We probably haven't figured out all the things she knows how to do. A riding dream. Confirmed for a mid April 2008 foal. SOLD

Rockaway Drummer's Kelly (Belle) Gary's riding horse. A registered Fox Trotter. She is huge and she can fly down the road. She's a gentle and wonderful girl.
