Wow, how is it even possible to be this far along in life already! So so much has happened at KC! This year should be a breeze, we are only expecting 9 foals, it is gonna be nice to have them spread out and have more time to work with them. We plan on retiring Harry at the end of this year. He will be 18 this year, he has more than proved himself. Harry will become my riding gelding. I am EXCITED! Oreo will join the gelding club in 2025 as his son takes over for him. Mega is pretty darn amazing. We have also decided to sell Emma after this foal. She is our BEST broodmare, but has given me two of her best foals to date and a 3rd in a few months. We are truly trying to downsize our Gypsy herd by 50%. For two reasons, to lighten my work load, and diversify into QH’s. I have started showing in ranch riding and reining and love it. I am having fun bringing Oreo along on this journey, but it is not what he is built to do. So I am buying a horse that is built and bred to do the job.
It is critical to me and my success that my horses get the best level of care, and with having 38, you can’t give them the care they need. So that is the biggest reason for downsizing. I want more time riding, and I can hardly find the time to ride one time a week. So we are not going anywhere, we are just getting to a more manageable number! So you will see some amazing girls come available in the future!
