Stud colts for sale

Here are just a couple pictures of the stud colts that we have for sale. These pictures were taken yesterday 11-29. Top to bottom, Stormy Red Cane, red dun weanling- Shaqs Proud Rebel, red dun weanling - Watch John Three 16 red roan weanling - Shaqs Royal Dandy, red dun yearling. Watch John Three 16 and Shaqs Royal Dandy are full brothers. We still have Twister, our 2 year old but I couldn't get him away from the hay bale.

A look at the east yard

Yesterday we got the weanlings back up to our place from Dan's where they were weaned. These are some pictures of our east pasture where we have Shaqs babies, from Fancy (4 yr old) to the 2009 babies.

Weanlings officially weaned

Here are a few pictures of our 2009 colt crop. These pictures were taken on 10-17 after we got them weaned and down the road to Dan's place. After we got the gate shut behind Dan and made sure the mares were ok, we headed down to his place to help get the little ones off the trailer but when we pulled in the weanlings were already in the round pen! It looks pretty neat when you drive by and see all the colors in the yard, we have red roan, red duns, buckskin, and we still haven't decided the color of Lena's! We have the registration papers sent off on Cane, Drifter, Royal, and Smokey's babies but we haven't got them back yet.

Weaning day at Windy Creek Qtr Horses

Saturday, October 17th, we got the 2009 babies weaned. It went so fast that I didn't get many pictures, well that and the fact that it was a muddy mess that I just stayed by the gate! Here are some of the mares and Shaq (behind Cane by the pickup/trailer). The ones pictured here are Royal, Smokey, Cane, and Shaq. Everyone of them young and old look pretty scruffy thanks to our muddy conditions and getting ready for winter.

The young ones

The other day I tried to get some new pictures of our young horses - weanlings and up but the sloppy conditions prevented me from getting more than I did. It has been pretty wet here lately, yesterday when I opened the gates for my brother Dan to bring bales for the two yards I thought I was going to walk out of my boots! Other than the mud on them though. they are all doing great and looking good. Just a reminder, the weanlings, yearlings, and our two year old gelding Twister are still for sale, $3oo each, your choice. If you are seeing this and know of someone looking for really nice, young quarter horses, please tell them about us.

Update on Colts at Windy Creek QH's

Wow, the summer has gone by so quickly! The colts are all doing great and looking awesome. As it usually happens, most of the babies have changed colors since birth. We have four red roans, two red duns, and a buckskin! They are a sight to see. There are more than one picture of a couple of them and not a picture yet for Syd's filly or Pretty Girls buckskin yet, be sure to check back.

Our last '09 baby!

Syd finally decided to have her baby, it was well worth the wait. It is a beautiful red roan. Some of our other babies from this year are now starting to show some roan but this little thing already is! It was born Monday morning and everything is looking good, these pictures were taken that afternoon.
