Final Foal of 2024, Finally!

 After 375 days Rosie gave up her hostage on 5/28. 

Welcome to Roscoe's new Filly, Clover!

Now I gave everyone  who guessed socks credit for one sock because I am not sure if she has white on her right front, and three stockings. She is unique for a Roscoe foal with her star and stripe.

So, the winner of Rosie's foal pool is Betsy! Email me at equinpilot@aol.com to let me know if Riding Warehouse is what you want or another gift card.

And the overall winner for 2024 is Liz! Now to see if I can come up with something to equal last years. Let me know if you have any requests.

Thanks everyone for participating. As of now, Roscoe has had a break from breeding since mare owners are waiting for 2025. There is still a chance for a 2025 foal.

Welcome to Duncan 2.0

 At the civilized hour of 7am Maggie gave birth to Duncan 2.0, Collin on Saturday. Yes, Rose is still holding out on us.

Similar to his brother, his chrome was a little hard to figure out. I waited to see how he dried. I see three stockings and one sock.

Maggie came much earlier than everyone expected, so the numbers are really low, but the winner is Liz!

Send me an email to let me know if Riding Warehouse is your chosen gift card.

Now I will leave you with a family photo of when Duncan came to see Collin.

Mic Drop, First Foal of the Year

 Finally, the first foal has graced us with their presence. On 5/1 (Debonair's B-day) Fairy Gold released a big, bling boy. She was like 15 days overdue, so her poor owner was totally sleep deprived. She absolutely loves this mare and seems to forgive him for being a boy instead of a girl.

The question is what color is he: Chestnut or Palomino? That is part of the reason I waited to do this post. Only one person guessed chestnut, so I gave them credit.

And the winner is Stacie! Send me an email, equinpilot@aol.com,  to let me know if you want Riding Warehouse or another gift card.

Now we wait for the next one.

Updates for Some of Roscoe's Kids

 While we wait for the new foals, here are some updates for the older ones.

Castleberrys Royalty

Jess, and her son, came up for sale. Duncan's owner worked out a deal with her owner and she has a new home in Kentucky. She has been to clinics, trail rides and will be bred again. It will be exciting to see how she comes along.

Castleberrys Ffrewyn

Since weaning he has lived in Canada with his brother, Debonair. He has at least one foal on the ground, but was gelded. Recently he was sold to a dressage rider in America. Fynn is now Frosty and hopefully we will see him in the show ring.

The ones for sale:

Pleinair Nocturne

Shelby, Roscoe's half welsh son. He is still flashy with his chrome. His owner got a full welsh stallion to show and promote, so Shelby has not been able to get started. Ad link.

Cobs Creek Criterion

Duncan is a yearling who has been on trails, shows, and even therapeutic swimming to get fit for YHS.

MHS Ragtime Reflection

Roscoe's 3 year old daughter can be sold open or bred to one of the stallions her owner has available.

Down The Cross Stitch Hole

 So, I have spent all my free time working on the Foal Pool Prize cross stitch. That's why I have not posted. It took longer since my sister accidently cut the fabric too small and I had to start all over once I discovered it when it was halfway done.

This was a fun one to put together. Liz has a ton of photos to choose from.

These were the ones that make up the final picture

And the final product

And my sister's framing to finish it up

Luckily Liz enjoyed the picture, which is always the goal. I always hope I do people's horses justice.

Thanks everyone for participating in the Foal Pool. Roscoe has 3 expected next year, so we will do another one.

Final 2023 Foal is a Filly!

 And of course just after I posted the last foal results, the last edition arrived early. For the first time ever Roscoe has two fillies in one year.

Meet Juliet's (Remember When) filly, SFW Pardon My Ffrench (Kahmee)

In a twist Kahmee has two socks and one stocking. Maybe a coronet, but I have not been able to see clearly. She also has a star, stripe, snip. Her owner is thrilled with all the traits Roscoe passed down. Kahmee keeps her mom running now that she has figured out those long legs.

Congrats to Liz! She has won this foal pool and the overall prize. Let me know if you have a specific picture(s) for your cross stitch or if you want me to put together something.

Thanks for participating this year everyone! We have one confirmed pregnancy so far for 2024.
