So...I've been really bad about keeping up with this. Lol. >.<
The last few babies of the year have arrived happy and healthy, so I'll admit I'm doing a bit of a happy dance here.
The first one is
Dunedain (NCh. Lord Nelson x Ranger's Pride) who was born June 3. After I named him I discovered that there's another horse on here with a similar name, though, so his will probably have to change. (T.T)
Second is
Gallant Lord (NCh. Lord Nelson x Ch. Awesomette), born June 7. Along with his sire's amazing bloodline, his dam also has Mr. Prospector (I), Townsend Holly (B/I), and Dixie Chick (B/I) in her bloodline, so I'm hoping for good things from this little guy.
And last but not least, there's
Dixie Rose (GCh. Dixie Time x Cryptorose), born July 10. Both of her parents are from created lines, so there's no telling what her real potential is, but both sire and dam are silver ranked, so this one should be a good runner. Cryptorose officially retired after the birth.
In total, we ended up with 11 healthy babies (10 homebreds, 1 created weanling). Interesting that it ended up being a fairly even playing field, too, with 5 homebred colts and 5 homebred fillies. (The created filly did tip the scale on that score tho). Now I just have to wait for next year's crop.
