We are back and my voice is barely holding on but we are pushing through because there is a LOT to catch up on 😅

First things first, Ocala is one week away and there is a mystery horse I am showing that y'all do not know about yet. Plus Denver just went and won his first class back fresh off breeding season like it was nothing, and Penelopey might be making her riding debut while we are there. No big deal. Just a lot happening.

Then we get into your questions from the comments and honestly y'all came through with some good ones. We talk through everything going on with Maggie including the laminitis update, why we chose Gracie over a nurse mare, and where things stand now. We also cover Daphne's hip injury, next year's foal count, what actually makes a colt a stallion prospect versus a gelding, Gretchen's first mini horse show, and the hardest question of all, which five broodmares would I start my entire breeding program over with? 🐴

It got deep. We had thoughts. Matt also showed up at the end uninvited as usual. Annie still has not had her baby. Prayers up. 🙏

If you are new here, welcome to the chaos. We breed and show quarter horses, document foaling season, and talk about all the things nobody else is talking about in the horse world. Subscribe so you do not miss what happens in Ocala.
