just a quick update

2009-05-19T10:14:00.002-05:00

The end of last week was wet and busy. We lost one of our best mares the beginning of the week. The foal was dead inside her and we had to put her down. It was a very sad thing to do but she was suffering...so the hard decision was made.
On Tuesday 5-12 our cremello mare Kadie foaled a palomino stud colt out of Peppy.
Then we waited until 5-15 which was not the best day to be foaling outside. If you remember it rained all day and was cold. Not a good day to be born... but mother nature had other plans.
Three first foalers decided it was their time. Gee Gee, Carrie, and PK all foaled.
As soon as it drys out I will get pictures and post them.

AQHA Southeast Iowa Breeder's sale this summer!!!

2009-04-20T12:54:00.000-05:00

Plan to attend AQHA Southeast Iowa Breeder's sale this summer!!!

The Sale will be held the weekend of June 20 and 21st.
Circle Bar J, SK Horses Ltd, and Helling Quarter Horses will be showcasing their new 2009 foals and also will be selling an assortment of yearlings, two year olds, and a few started riding geldings.

It will be held at the River Valley Horse Camp in Farmington, Iowa. If you trail ride and like to camp you need to visit this campground. It is adjacent to Shimek State Forest.. Miles of trails to ride.
Check the campground out at www.rivervalleyhorsecamp.com.

Of course our new foals will be out in the pastures with their dams but we will have pictures and pedigrees. Good time to set up an appointment to view the 09 foals.

The older colts and fillies will be in pens at the campgound for buyers to view and I will also webcam the sale at our internet site http://www.aqhaseiowa.com.

We know times are tough but don't give up what is important to you.

Good opportunity to purchase a colt or filly prospect.

Happy trails.......

Anticipating

I've been kicking around an idea of letting other people name our babies this spring.
I will just call them a, b, c, d, etc and let readers name the foals.

Counting the days

Today is April 15 2009.
Spring is just around the corner.
The mares are showing signs of getting ready to foal.

Colonel our palomino stallion is pictured here.
He's not broke to ride but as you can see getting on him in a pasture full of mares and babies is no big deal.
