Planned Breedings 2010
Here is the breeding line up for 2009, I will only be breeding Dinah and Belle this year, as I am giving everyone else the year off along
with myself after the loss of Maddie's kidlet.  It was a tough loss and definitely the tough side of breeding.  Looking forward to some
FABULOUS babies in 2009!!!  Here is the line up for 2009 breedings:
Heidi
Heidi has done exceptionally well with black stallions, we will see what she can do with a new bay stallion!!!  His name is Joey and
more details are here!!! Click here to see her 2007 filly, Avril's page.
Belle foaled a beautiful bay Drum colt on March 30th 2009.  Click here to go to Ethan's page!
Belle foaled a beautiful black and white Drum filly on April 18th 2007!  Click here to go to Bianca's page!
Belle
Maddie
UPDATE- Adrianna was born at 10:24pm on February 23rd 2009! Check out her page here!
Heidi is PREGNANT!!!!  She will be due to foal February 24th 2009!!!!
Maddie was due to foal on March 4th 2009, but unfortunately on December 3rd 2008 Maddie's baby was declared dead in utero.  
Maddie aborted her baby on December 5th, it was to have been a Grey Filly with four whites and a blaze :(!  I promised Maddie this
would be her last pregnancy and will NEVER put her through this again.  So Heidi will remain my only child from Maddie.  RIP
Maddie's baby!
UPDATE- Belle is PREGNANT!!!  She will be due March 22nd 2009!!!!
Dinah
*UPDATE* Dinah is confirmed in foal and will be due to foal March 15th 2010!!!
Dinah was bred in early April to Desert Jewel's phenomenal and well known stallion Lenny (also sire to Ethan).  This should be one Gypsy
baby that will set the Gypsy World on fire.  Combining Tumbleweed bloodlines with the look, personality, and filly it will absolutely be a
keeper.  If a colt who knows!  Should be one insanely hairy and incredibly built baby!
Color possibilities of offspring:
56.25% Black & White
18.75% Red & White
18.75% Black
6.25% Red

**UPDATE** Belle is confirmed in foal for an April 4th Drum Baby!!!
Belle will be bred on her 30 day heat (which should be April 29th) to the Desert Jewel Gypsy Stallion, Flash of Gold.  Flash is known for putting
exceptional bodies, personality, and hair on his babies and with this match up there is a good chance of a Buckskin Drum Horse!

Planned Breedings 2009
Here are the breeding line ups for 2010.  We start breeding in March so this page will be updated as the mares are confirmed
in foal.  There is one more possible breeding, but that one will wait till later to announce :)!  Should be spectacular 2011 foals!
Faye x Joey 2011 Shire Foal
50 percent chance of Gray, 25 percent chance of Bay, 25 percent chance of Black
This should be one exceptional Shire foal, combining some very well known Shire bloodlines!  Should be a moving
machine too!  She will be bred in March/April 2010 time frame!
Maddie x Joey 2011 Shire Foal (ET)
I've been saving up the pennies to repeat this breeding except this time Maddie won't carry her own child.  Will have the embryo put in a
surrogate mother and let her carry the foal to term so Maddie doesn't have to!  Hoping for the repeat of a Grey Filly with this pairing!
Ideal
Heidi
Heidi x Joey 2011 Shire Foal
75 percent shot of Bay, 25 percent shot of Black
I'm usually not one for repeat breedings, but with Adrianna turning out as nice as she is, figured a repeat breeding would be permitted!  She is
due to be bred during her next heat cycle, look forward to another outstanding Shire foal in 2011!
Bianca x Jimbo, 2011 Drum Horse Foal
50 percent Black/White, 50 percent solid Black
Bianca is a pretty ideal Drum Horse mare except she is lacking feather.  So putting her with a stallion like Jimbo that is known for putting the
body and the hair on his foals, this should be one amazing Drum Horse!  Bianca will be the first of my homebred babies to be a mom, super
excited about her foal!
