The Girls

Text Box: Small Fry’s Daisy May, a yearling, arrived from Wyoming in August of 2004. She is a spirited friendly filly, growing into a lovely mare. Her color is sometimes called Silver Dapple which means she is a black based horse with silver and dapples. The silver changes her body color to a lovely chocolate brown and her mane and tail to a flaxen shade. Every time I look at her she is a little bit different from the time before.

The girls

Text Box: Daisy does everything with enthusiasm! This includes playing, rolling and growing a winter coat to rival Khalif’s. She doesn’t look like the same horse in winter!

Text Box: Sulphuras Yellow Lynx set foot in Arizona (after a trip from Kansas) at about 12:03 in the morning. She spent one day in her assigned stall and then decided she liked Daisy’s better. She also immediately put Khalif in his place. Definitely a self confident mare!

Text Box: Lynx and Daisy both have a winter coat that is lighter in color than their summer coat. Lynx doesn’t get a very heavy coat but it still makes her look fat and fuzzy.

Text Box: Lynx and Daisy being bookends.

Text Box: Here Lynx and Indigo meet without a fence between them. Hopefully eleven months later we will have a filly! I vote for a blue roan with a blanket , or a palomino rabicano, or … Indigo (which is a shade of blue) and Yellow Lynx together could make a GREEN APPALOOSA! Well, maybe not. All I ask is for a healthy foal!

I hope you enjoyed visiting our little ranch. It’s just under 6 acres and is at about 3700 feet above sea level. Daytime temperatures range from the 60’s to the 110’s and winter nights can be quite a bit below freezing. The horses have shade during the summer and wind breaks are added during the winter. They always have mineralized salt and water as well as lots of TLC.
