Dianes A Winner had her second foal! (That's her first baby, Bobby, in the header picture.) The pretty sorrel stud colt hit the ground around 3:30 a.m. on Sunday, Feb. 7. Diane doesn't like to foal indoors so we left her out, and the foal's first experience in life was wallowing in a cold mud puddle. We brought him into the heated barn and after about 2 hours he found his footing and nursed. We finally got a sunny day, so they're both out soaking up the sun and fresh (though cold) air. 

Is that a tornado on "Twister's" forehead?

Born on April 1, Joker is a great little palomino stud colt who, seven hours after birth, was charging around the pen at a canter.

He's double-linebred Skipper W, out of Sparkling Richochet (see
Mares page), by Desert Skippa.

Marshmallow hit the ground at about 7:00 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 3. She's a Mini-Me of her mom except she has blue eyes instead of green. She's the second foal of SH Little White Dust, aka Puff, a registered cremello quarter horse whose bloodline includes Skipper W, Three Bars, Two-Eyed Jack, and Zan Parr Bar. Marshmallow's sire is our own Desert Skippa, son of Premium Skip and grandson of Skippa Lark.
