MERRY CHRISTMAS

For 2024 ONLY, we will be offering our Stallion, DFR Patahas Redheart (Blu) frozen semen to ALL mares in the UK & Europe.

Blu is a 15.2h, smoky black (EE aa CRcr) Foundation Appaloosa, homozygous for the Leopard Complex gene (LP/LP) and the Pattern gene (PATN1/PATN1).

Certified negative for Polysaccharide Storage Myopathy (PSSM1), Hereditary Equine Regional Dermal Asthenia (HERDA), Glycogen Branching Enzyme Deficiency (GBED), Equine Hyperkalemic Periodic Paralysis Disease (HYPP), Malignant Hyperthermia (MH), Grey gene and Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC).

A very kind stallion who we have brought on very slowly, he’s successfully competed in the ring (in hand & under saddle) and was lightly introduced to show jumping earlier this year.

He has contributed his share of the genes to some awesome Appaloosa foals here in the UK & Europe.
His details are HERE.

Please email us for a contract and a copy of his Semen Assessment if you are interested – HERE.

ALL mares must be certified 5 panel negative, NO grey mares, NO LP/LP mares and NO inbreeding or linebreeding (see pedigree).

ALL mares will be included on his Stallion Report 2024 with ApHC UK, BApS & ApHC as standard.

Payment of £500 must be received (1 dose (6 straws)) before semen will be released from Stallion AI.

Limited to the first 20 doses being ordered.

A reminder of the quality Blu has produced:

It certainly has been a very wet winter, we’ve never fed hay in MAY before!!!

None the less, the sun eventually came out and the spring grass was evident, the herd certainly will benefit from Dr.Green.

 

Contentment…

Our 2019 Appaloosa’s, Redheart Rookie, Revelation, Relentless & Reflection were taught to tie up as weanlings, as yearlings they are expected to tie up and stand patiently. We think they are doing great!

Here’s a little VIDEO

Happy first birthday to The Class of 2019, they are all developing differently, both mentally and physically but the main similarity is how they know their routine, 6pm is dinner time every day and they know it!

Redheart Foals In Horse & Hound Magazine 2019

Absolutely delighted to see our 2019 Appaloosa foals’ picture was chosen to feature in this week’s Horse & Hound magazine, celebrating the READER ISSUE – “All the drama and emotion of your 2019”.

The 2019 Redheart Appaloosa Foals Are Weaned…

Well, that was the easiest weaning we have ever had…

Maybe because we have four foals, maybe because our new stables have “windows” for them to interact?

Minimal “calling” from the mares and foals, quite honestly, we don’t know why the foals were actually not bothered, so we are just going to go with it!
