Here is the news update of a couple of new 2012 Traveler babies. Congrats to Shawn for "Shine" - a beautiful Curly filly with sabino markings and a white blaze. Shine was conceived AI / Shipped Semen and 11 months later, Shine entered the world. They will have a ton of Curly fun.
And I just was able to see the newest addition to the "Traveler family". Congrats to Sheila for her Curly filly - yes, another girl. (How come I get all the colts?) The dam is Sacajewa and so the filly is to either be named "Curly Sioux" (I like this one best) or "Sioux-z". Pretty cute names, Sheila.
Curly Sioux is absolutely adorable and I got to see her in person - she has a ton of white on her as well. Traveler usually passes on his sabino markings - huge white blaze, white leg markings and a stocky, well built little body for a one week old.
Just talked to my farrier and vet - they both bred their mares to Traveler. I think that says a lot when a farrier and vet - who get to see all kinds of horses, choose to breed to Traveler. They have two 2 year olds - a filly and a colt. When my farrier came out today he said that his filly jumped and cleared a 5 foot fence. Guess that Traveler passes on more than just his coloring!!!
