I loved this Vlog! It’s so nice to see those babies from the very beginning! I am very much looking forward to the rest of your journey with these two and also your competition journey.
Hello from Australia. This was maaarvellous (said in the voice of David Attenborough). Many people think any animal breeding is just putting two animals together. I use this explanation: The [insert animal here] you know and love is but one hand of cards in a big deck. The relatives will show you what other cards are in the deck but when you breed you will be shuffling those cards and hoping to get only the good ones.
Very interesting. Breeding is so tricky. Our first foal was a complete fluke. Bought a very rough Fell type mare. Seems the owner took advantage of his friends part Arab stallion!.....got the test results mixed up and sold the mare he thought was not infoal. We ended up with a beautiful bright bay colt, four long white socks and a star. He lived a long life, about 28 years! We lost a 3/4 TB mare and her foal during labour! The same mare had produced a nice colt a few years previous. The ups and downs of horses and breeding.
A lot of show ponies developed in uk through native x Arab so can see how that would give you a nice horse. The worries with horses never stop, you just miss 5 years of it if buy them riding away, and someone else has taken the risk but then you miss the joy….
@theeventingjourney232 I was so tempted to write that. I read it in a reprint of a book from the late 1800s. However, some might also consider me to be a fool because I like horses off the track. Thoroughbreds and Standardbreds.
Geri bred her, who owns her. So though I have been involved for 90% of her life as met her as a 2yo, I didn’t choose the stallion or own the mare (Geri owned her mother as well). So she is a homebred as still owned by Geri, whose yard I am based at, but she isn’t my own personal homebred, if that makes sense?
Aww so love foals. Takes me back to when I worked on a pony stud when I first left school. Slept in the stables to be near the mares due to foal and they had always just had them even though checking every two hours 🙄. Very exciting prospects and look forward to seeing them on their journeys. Nova is fab and going so well 🥰

I know enough about breeding horses to know that it's something that I'll never do. You are far braver than I.
Fools breed horses for wisemen to buy….

Loved this vlog (aside from the sad parts 😢)
Can’t beat foals for some serious cute!
@theeventingjourney232 utterly adorable! Loved the bit where foalie went out with mum and the other two horses were going bonkers trying to see! 😍
For some reason I had it in my head that you’d bred Incey! I would’ve sworn she was a homebred. Don’t know where I got that idea from 🤷♀️
Geri bred her, who owns her. So though I have been involved for 90% of her life as met her as a 2yo, I didn’t choose the stallion or own the mare (Geri owned her mother as well). So she is a homebred as still owned by Geri, whose yard I am based at, but she isn’t my own personal homebred, if that makes sense?
Ahh… I get it. Now you’ve said it, I do recall you saying that you didn’t actually own her… Apologies for my forgetfulness.
Too many horses on YT all with various back stories!!
