It seems like for the longest time I have been curse by the colt fairy. At one point I had 32 male Morgans(most were studs), and only 17 mares! Fillies came few and far between.
But between this season and last I have had a total of 9 foals (8 Morgans, 1 SFH). 7 out of the 9 were FILLIES and all Morgans! I am so happy to finally get some females into my mare barn, though I doubt I will be keeping all seven. Very pleased with them though.
And, to put some icing on the cake, this season all foals had COLOR. For me that is a wonderful thing to see since grey horses made up 50% of my active Morgan herd! Though next season I have 3 due, 2 Morgans and 1 Dutch Warmblood, and both Morgans will be grey no matter what as their sire is homozygous. :P
I am super pumped to have my first SFH foal too! I breed these guys for color, 5 gaits, and just for fun. And boy is my new colt loudly colored!
You can check out my 198 foals in the widget to the left, and I will soon update my broodmare barn tab for the 199 foals. :)
