So, back in March I bought a show pony. I love her because she looks a LOT like a mare I once knew. She was a spayed mare so I didn't think it would matter if I changed her name a bit. She was Bird, so I called her Surfer Bird to fit in with the way my own horses were all named for songs.

DS10 Surfer Bird

She's 18 so I likely won't have her much longer, but she's still my favorite show pony. I had her for over a month before I realized she hadn't always been spayed and had foals out in the game. I started running searches on them randomly, hoping to see one go up for sale or one of her sons at stud, trying to keep one of my unevenly bred pearl mares open, just in case.

I just got lucky. :D

Meet Surfer Bird's grandson. I am so happy right now, it's pitiful. I've been beaming since his picture loaded. I couldn't have custom ordered him any better!

Han was always my favorite, and he so shot first.

YAY! Congrats

And WHAT A GREAT NAME! OMG!

Thanks! He's going to say for life in my barn, for sure. :D

Congratulations! So exciting, and he is beautiful! My bootstrap sire is a son of Surfer Bird, please let me know if you ever want straws.

@ConfluenceFarms I had to. lol His sire is Force Awakens, and most of Bird's foals have Star Wars names, and yeah. My favorite Star Wars character will always be the scruffy nerfherder I saw on the big screen when I was a kid and Star Wars was just some new movie by a guy nobody had ever heard of. :))

Justa · May 9, 2018 4:18 AM

I totally will, HTRanch, thank you! ;;)

I remember those days!

I bred my first ever *Gold mare on HAJ 1 she is ice 8 with an 11.80 pt score. Also congratulations

Justa · May 11, 2018 2:58 AM

Congrats, @BuchananShow ! I haven't ever bred a Gold yet, even bootstrapping. My mares aren't top end for the most part, so anything over 11 PT is awesome for my foals. :D

That name :-))
I love how his markings are the same as hers so cool!

BuchananShow · May 11, 2018 4:29 AM

@JustaSaddletramp my mares aren’t perfect by any means either. I was pretty much in shock when I tested her. Excited about her in the future.

It was the first thing that came to mind, @ColorGoodStables, and Han is my favorite, so yeah. :3 I have a couple more named after nicknames used for Leia (Your Worshipfulness) and Luke (Lars Dunestrider). Yes, I am a geek, but at least I enjoy it. lol

She's a beauty @BuchananShow! She reminds me of one of my ice fillies, though mine didn't paper or PT nearly so high. lol
