Desert Skippa's May Flowers 2011--Three of a Kind!!! Ricochet's colt, Fancy's colt "Hook," b. 5/5/11 "Bo," b. 5/10/11 Diane's filly, "Maddy," b. 5/23/11 Hmm . . . no, they're not palominos. But they're healthy and beautiful so we'll just change our name to fit the babies!
Destiny, a paint mare visiting from another farm, was bred by Desert Skippa in November, 2009. What a combination! This stud colt, born September 29, 2010, is "Rock Star." He is owned by Sonya Cardinal of TBarS Dreamhorses of Silver Lake, KS. * * * * * Elysium Bailey Cream had her second foal on Sunday, July 25, 2010, a cremello study colt with a white star and stripe. He's got his mom's gorgeous blue eyes. Angelic! Below is Prince at four months. He might be our next stallion. * * * * * Big Annie had her first foal Thursday, July 22, 2010, a beautiful dun (maybe a dunalino) colt. * * * * * Dianes A Winner had her second foal! (That's her first baby, Bobby, in the header picture.) The pretty sorrel stud colt hit the ground around 3:30 a.m. on Sunday, Feb. 7. Diane doesn't like to foal indoors so we left her out, and the foal's first experience in life was wallowing in an icy mud puddle. We brought him into the heated barn and after about 2 hours he found his footing and nursed. We finally got a sunny day, and below, they're out soaking up the sun and fresh (though cold) air. Is that a tornado on "Twister's" forehead? Twister at 2 weeks sampling a bit of hay. Twister at 6 weeks old

Born on April 1, Joker is a great little palomino stud colt who, seven hours after birth, was charging around the pen at a canter. He's double-linebred Skipper W, out of Sparkling Richochet (see Mares page), by Desert Skippa. Joker at about five hours old. Joker (previously named Gabe) at two weeks
Five-year old mare Fancy had her first foal on April 21, 2009. Barbie is a good-sized palomino filly who seems to have her dam's wonderful, calm disposition as well as her size and foundation-type conformation. See Fancy's pedigree here. Barbie as a yearling
Marshmallow hit the ground at about 7:00 a.m. on Saturday, Oct. 3. She's a Mini-Me of her mom except she has blue eyes instead of green. She's the second foal of SH Little White Dust, aka Puff, a registered cremello quarter horse whose bloodline includes Skipper W, Three Bars, Two-Eyed Jack, and Zan Parr Bar. Marshmallow's sire is our own Desert Skippa, son of Premium Skip and grandson of Skippa Lark. Marsh eating hay with the grownups at two weeks old. These pictures were taken on Nov. 28 in 65 degree weather when Marshmallow was 8 weeks old and really filling out. Here she's getting a little grooming along with her mom. She is a sweet, loving girl. More grooming for Marshmallow. Above, she's 8 months old. Below she's pictured as a yearling.
