I am very pleased to share another aspect of "the announcement" for Obsidian Arabians. Obsidian Arabians is expecting for 2013 and I'd thought it would be fun to guess which mare(s) is/are in a motherly condition..

We are anxiously awaiting the fruit of our efforts and planning and are excited to share it with you.

The possible matrons are:

Echo Empress

BA Chevelle:

La Legacy de Solei:

DS Magic's Royalty:

WMF THEE KASTANAH (sorry--don't have a decent body shot of this girl yet)

Some of you have known about this for months; no letting the cat out of the bag!

Happy guessing! :clap:

Well, the poll screwed up my vote, but. I'm going to guess BA Chevelle and Magic's Royalty.

I haven't done a poll before, so I'm not sure how it works. It may only allow one option
Thanks for your vote!! :wink:

BTW-- the Daddy is our very own Obsidian Dream:
A new Dream in the making-- soon to arrive..

Hee hee, I know which mare it is. I've known it for months in fact, but I won't say which one cause I promised Dru i'd keep it a secret. :wink:

What no " all the above" option?
All the above will do well with this cross and probably will in the future.
So I say all the above justt not this year.
If I am wrong we need to reevaluate your program. LOL Shalom

 

[Cacowgirl]

The poll only allowed one choice. Hope your'e planning more than one!

BTW-- I love your little guy..he is just precious, and your running commentary -very witty and refreshing..

I know-- just one of the many things I'm accused of..LOL
But don't people love guessing about these things?? <weg>

I'm also accused of torturing the forums with horrible, frightful pics.. :shock:
I'm a very bad person.

Don't worry-- I'll let you know very shortly who's in the baby way..

We don't mind the torturous photos....really we don't.

Sadly, the polls don't allow that..lol

I am so glad to hear you say that. I am of the same opinion. There are specific traits to consider with the mares, but one of the very reasons Dream was chosen WAS for his compatibility with my mares, his strengths, and especially the proven prepotency with his progenitors.
I'm very proud to be preserving established, respected bloodlines. Next year will prove very busy for Dream!! He has several appointments with Ladies other than mine.

He will do much to add to my Spanish girls and will complement the Crabbet blood, which all my girls have.

Very good to see others excited about the direction my breeding program is going in. Takes a long time to get all the pieces falling together, but - oh -so - worth - it!!

Thanks for your input db!! :wink:
BTW-- if you come across an El Shaklan mare like your pretty girl, let me know. I will be looking for another Spanish mare with Estopa/El Shaklan, or Sanadik El Shaklan to flesh out my Spanish breeding.

Druydess if I do find a mare like mine you will be the first to know.
In couple of years she and Dream will probably produce something wonderful.
That is as long as I get a Horse Forum discount.
I bought my stallion to compliment the mares I have just as you did.
IMO the mares are the foundation of any breeding program.
However looking at your photos I will hesitate to post any pictures. Not that my horses are grat my photography sucks .
Shalom

Thank you db; I appreciate it.
I'm honored that you find Dream a good match for your lovely girl. I believe those bloodlines would be a stellar cross. And of course you would get a special discount. :wink: I'm actually very open-minded and flexible with business arrangements. I will look forward to doing future business with you, and you will soon see what he is capable of producing.
One of the things that impresses me most about him and reinforced my feeling as to his nature, is that breeding never changed his demeanor. If anything, he's calmer and seems to take things more in stride. I have to say-- he is a very unique individual. He is easily handled during breeding and a total gentleman. His sire is the same.

But it does appear he has caused quite a knicker-tizzy!! What a reception he's getting! I have to thank you and so many others for being so supportive. What a great bunch of people to have in one's life.

I understand about pics. You have to be careful what you post lest it be used unethically.

Have a Happy New Year my friend!

There will definitely be more than one by 2013~~ :wink::happydance:
