Here are a couple of Welsh D's with semen frozen for export: Machno Carwyn http://www.machno.com/page5.htm - one of his sons was Champion jumping stallion at the Weser Ems licensing in Germany in 2009 or 2010, cant remember which year!! Gwynfaes Culhwch http://www.gwynfaes.co.uk/Culhwch.htm

Just heard that 2 yr old Don Rolieto (Don Ricoss/ Balzflug/ Sovereign Bill xx) has licensed today!!

Congratulations - he looks fantastic!!

Congratulations Ginnie - what a super foal ........& mare!! I should think you will have people beating a path to your door to buy him :)

I have her down on our list as being 340 days on April 22nd, so she might go a few more days yet :)

Our boys have produced 6 foals so far - 4 colts & 2 fillies, so it might be?!

2 of our boys, Sambertino (Samber-Wellington) & Samaii (Sambertino - Brentano II) are DNA tested as homozygous for black, so wont throw any chestnut foals - both of them have outstanding temperaments, as do their progeny. I have to agree with the other replies though - having a foal wont...

What a lovely baby ........& Dad isnt bad either!!! Good luck with his competitions, we might bump into each other at one of them with our British contingent over there :-)

Congratulations Penny - he is the first Don Ricoss baby born this year!!!!

Thanks everyone - much appreciated :-) Hi Kira, Don Ricoss frozen semen is in store in NZ with Angela Smith of IHB & he has foals in Australia & the US conceived via frozen so hopefully you should have no problems gaining a pregnancy with it! There are some more of his foal pictures here...

At home all ours - weanlings, ridden horses & stallions - get D+H Suregrow, or Baileys Stud Balancer with Readigrass or Graze-on & unmolassed beet, plus ad lib hay or haylage.

If you contact the Oldenburg Verband I would think they will let you know what progeny she has had? There is a list of contacts on this page http://www.oldenburger-pferde.com/pferde/index_22.php

Groomsbridge Stud is not far? They have excellent mare & foaling facilities - the AI packages are with Rossdales & they are doing ET from this year too.

Hi Mellissa - yes, he will be out competing in the young horse jumping classes this Spring, so hopefully by next year he will have some more good results under his belt! Good luck with your mare & foal.

Thanks for the lovely comments everyone Bon Balou semen is excellent quality - he has 7 foals due here, out of 7 mares inseminated & 5 took on the first cycle. This is a recent photo of him - he is rising 4.
