April 2007 News from Yellow Horses, Inc.

We have moved to our new facility in McKenna, Washington and the broodmare band is very much enjoying their new pastures! We have three new 2007 babies so far. The first is a beautiful buckskin filly with a doll head and a huge hip, by Sierras Super Star out of Bess Conclusion. She is sweet as sugar and a fantastic show prospect for someone wanting to compete in both AQHA and ABRA or IBHA shows.


The second to arrive was a huge palomino colt by KLR Reflection out of Just Plain Nasty. Unfortunately, we lost "Nasty" - who was the opposite of her name - to a twisted intestine just four days after baby was born. It was touch and go for a while but now the baby has been adopted by our senior broodmare, Miss Dusty Devil, and with the help of some milk replacer, is doing well. He is the biggest of the babies - not surprising since his mother was a 17 hand Thoroughbred.























Our most recent baby arrived just before we moved - a fancy chestnut colt by Sierras Super Star out of Dignified Annie. Annie is one of the newest members of our broodmare band, a gorgeous daughter of The Dignitary. Not only is she a wonderful broodmare, but she rides too - last fall, she took home a collection of hunt seat ribbons at a large open show with a child who had only ridden her once before!

That's the news for now, although I am sure we will have more baby pictures to post very soon...
