Well as of now I have my mares booked or at least the crossed picked and all the details worked out.

The first if Cassie.

With Thanks Quarter Horse
Booked too
Smart And Shiney Quarter Horse

This foal is already sold.

Next is Gracie
Hickorysamazinggrace Quarter Horse

Booked too
Marthas Mega Jac Quarter Horse

Lot of interest in this foal. So it might also be sold before the mare foals.

The last and this one is still tentative. As the foal will be more of an all around foal and not a reiner. However I think there is a good market for this cross.

I Pine for Diamonds Quarter Horse

Tentatively booked too.

I don't know much about QH's but that first pairing is going to yield a pretty baby is my guess. Both parents are beautiful.

 

[FGRanch]

Going to be a really nice set of foals that's for sure.

Are there any foals currently being shown out of your Hollywood Dun it mare?

I really like SBR Fromula One, he's a pretty verstatile guy from the look of all his pictures. Would love to see some of his foals make it big and your a person that would take them there.

The first foal out of the Dun It mare is just a yearling this year. She is looking very nice. Was up to the person who bought her and she is getting big. She is very fancy and a very very nice mover. She will catch the judges eye that is for sure.

 

[FGRanch]

Oh sorry I didn't look at your mare's age, I'm a dolt.

Are you planning on keeping any of her foals for yourself?

 

[nrhareiner]

At some point I will. This last one and this next one is sold. I am also thinking that the foal out if my ZFH mare will probable be sold before she foals. The deal I am offering is quite good.

 

[StylishK]

Those are looking like some nice babies for 2011! Nice to have them already sold eh?

 

[nrhareiner]

Ya That is in some ways good. The only one that is sold for sure is the one out of the Dun It mare. I have even been contacted about flushing embryos out of her which is the way I might go next year is sell an embryo so I can get one for myself.

The one out of the ZFH mare I have some interest in but nothing set yet. I am up in the air about selling that one but if I get my price I will sell.

 

[FGRanch]

I was wondering how that worked? Can you register more than one foal out of a mare a year. Say if you were to pull two embryo's are both foals registerable?

 

[nrhareiner]

Yes there is no limit on the number of foals that can be registered out of a QH mare. They changed that rule about 8-10 years ago now. Dose not seem that long but I do believe it has been.

When I sell an Embryo out of one of my mares I have a set price and it includes everything but the stud fee and transporting the recipient mare. Makes things easier and if you want a second or get a second I should say then the next one is a bit cheaper as the ET cost are less.

 

[FGRanch]

Thanks so much for answering that. For some reason I had a really hard time wording that question! LOL

Can I ask you what an average ET cost you in that part of the world. It's about $3000 here and I was wondering if that is kind of standard.

 

[nrhareiner]

The place I use is $4500 however that is guaranteed. So dose not matter how many times you have to try that is your cost. That is why I can set a price and make it all inclusive.

 

[FGRanch]

Okay right one! I will stop harrasing you now!

Thanks for taking the time to answer my questions.
