Barrel Horse Blue Hen Royalty
Stacey owned her and still has embryos out of her. Produced Promise me a Wagon, Promises to Dash, No Questions No lies, Pale Face Wagon, and she had the high seller at the BFA in I think 2015? by ASOF
http://www.rhranch.com.br/animais/matrizes/pie-sky-promises/93/ Shes dead but here's where she went.
She was out of Joyous Bug tho who produced horses like Fleet Feet Flyin and a few other ones that would sure take your money.

| There is not many of them left, but I have my eye on a 2000 daughter that is open and last foaled in 2016. I hate buying older open mares, because of the likely problems. But dang its hard to pass on some of these with older breeding. She has produced a few good money earners in barrels and on the track. |

In my humble opinion with a PITS mare, if they can breed and carry a foal...they are in foal. They are worth a lot so if cheap, buyer beware. I know of 3 people that bought daughters, 1 from the Heritage. None ever foaled again. One wasn't cheap either. They spent 3x what they paid for the mares to have vet work done etc and never got a foal. |

| The seller is sure there are no problems...
I bought one older open mare a few years ago. I bred her the first year, she absorbed. Second year absorbed. So I sold her the next year after breeding her and she appears to be healthy and in foal now. Just my luck! lol |

Location: Peg-Leg Julia Grimm | I've had good luck and bad luck with old mares. I finally decided it's not worth paying for an old mare and only getting maybe 1-3 foals o/o her when I could buy a young mare for a little more and get 8-10 babies out of her. Or sell her after a handful for the same price I paid for her while she's still young.
I bought 3 old mares one year. One by Shawne Bug, one by FDD and one by FWF. I got a sum total of 2 babies out of those mares and spent thousands in vet work and 3 years worth of feed. Not doing it again unless they are mares I raised and I have attachments to them. Then they are staying here no matter what. |
