| Pray? Seriously, there are a lot of benefits to the vinegar besides seeming to enhance the possiblity of a filly...It is supposed to help deter mosquitoes, flies, dissolve enteroliths, improve one's mood...But I've never heard of what one would feed for a greater chance of a colt. I'll ask my vet next time I see him! |

Hi Gari I am here in Texas this morning I guess you couldnt make it?
I also use Cider vinigar for fillies and I have had a high ratio of fillies all the visiting mares were given cider vinigar this year so we will see how it goes |

Thanks for the kind words about both Winged Saint and my photography Gari.
Funnily enough I have been told about cider vinegar before (doesn't seem to have had the desired result with Narishka's 2 pregancies so far, but then it just swings the odds as I understand it so a sample of two is not fair), and I feed it anyway because it seems to help ease the stiffness in Narishka's shoulder - caused by a field accident back in 2002. It is supposed to work for people too - not that I am planning any more children of my own! Alexia |

| Also it seems to work well if you want fillies to cover just once about the 3rd or 4th day, as I was told the female (XX) live longer than the(xy) sperms who are good fast swimmers but die quicker than the slower female swimmers who live longer, the thought being the faster sperms all get there first but die before the egg arrives, while the female swimmers are just turning up |

I am definitely going to try the Apple Cider Vinegar method, and I have also heard of the timing of coverings - ie. cover as far from ovulation as possible because female sperm is stronger and will last longer but slower swimmers, male sperm get there quicker but have no stamina (mmmmm....???, a very thought provoking idea!!!).
Just another element to add to the mix, Taj has sired many more fillies than colts with various different bloodlines and types of mares - very interesting!!!
Gari, I agree, 'Pepe le Peu' is a gorgeous boy, but it's not Taj, although very similar breeding, especially on the sire line. 'Pepe le Peu' is 'Amir al Sahra' (Imperial Kamilll x Raqqisa), a new addition to our breeding programme  , and I (and his owners) are hoping that he will complement Taj's daughters - fingers crossed!!!
Carla, xx. |

Lynda, weather in NE Herts is brisk, overcast and threatening rain. Have had some sun this morning, but a very chilly wind. Basically the weather is, as always, changeable. So I reckon your lovely horses will be fine, along with the chickens and pups (OH is big enough to look after himself)
So how is the weather there (and I am sooooooo not jealous)
Carla, xx. |

Hey, Kate! Look forward to hearing from you!!!
The cross with Silver Jameela should be very beautiful and surprisingly elegant as her tail female line traces to the Abbas Pasha/Ali Pasha Sherif line of Bint Helwa! Courageous, loving, elegant makes for a lovely cross! If chestnut, the baby will be the above, if gray multiply by 4!
The cross with My Midnight Dancer should be spectacular as well tho' be careful not to overdue the protein in the feed as this will be double Bey Shah...The cross will make for an intensely loyal baby and a bit snippy with outsiders, super beautiful and unflappable! This mare is a Seglawi ibn ed Derri and quite chisled.
The babies from both mares should be spectacular!
Quite lovely! |

Hi Gari
First post in this thread. I've recently bought a mare who I hope to breed from next year. I'm still very much learning about bloodlines - total novice really. I bought her simply because she is maternal half sister to one of my other horses Gedenski who was an International standard endurance horse in his prime. I want to breed something that is beautiful enough to do showing with as a youngster but will also be able to perform in endurance when old enough. Could you possibly suggest what sort of bloodlines would match best with my mare?
Her pedigree is here:

I'd also really like to breed a bay but obviously this is not the most important factor by a long way. |

Welcome aboard Angela! Well it is a very interesting pedigree. She is definitely a Seglawi Jedran, sire line to Mahruss so she is extremely intelligent...watch out she can figure out how to open gates, combination padlocks and other devices...She is very good looking and powerfully built thanks to a lot of up close Mikeno kuhailan blood, and should move with real brilliance. She should prove exceptionally loyal and have very very nice babies given the blend of bloodlines-some truly stunning straight Egyptian, Crabbet and British (Old English) lines. You have a couple of ways of going but if you want bay blood there is one stallion that immediately comes to mind and that is FS Bengali, Aja Sanchez standing at Cullinghurst at the moment (probably your best bet), and then for something that will bring out the most Seglawi beauty would be two stallions-WSA Charismma (real good chance of bay with breeding to him...your mare is loaded with Naziri blood and particularly through the bay Saladin II and Nazziria!) or BNC Aazari, a bay Hamdani Simri *Carmargue son whose sire was the incomparable BNC Arazi.
So that should give you some fun visits and trust me-some very very beautiful horses to look at! |

Hi Gari
I thought you might be interested to see how Magic (Marbon Majali Magic) is coming along.
Your discription of him was very good
Quote Egbert
"Your Magic has a lovely lovely pedigree. I am very intrigued by Ibn Silver...There is so much beauty in that pedigree and doubled with Dajania who was renowned for creating great stallions. With Hanif as a grandsire to Silver...can only imagine that your boy is going to have an incredible personality plus a lot of sweetness via Bright Shadow.
On the dam's side you trace to the incomparabale Silver Ripple who as a maternal granddaughter of *Risira is a virtual guarantee of great if not frequently beautiful descendants-highly elegant with a special sparkle that is unique to this dam line. There are three up close crosses to the Wentworth super horse, Indian Magic. Indian Magic was a unique horse as well. So very beautiful and very sweet with those he loved-Fred Rice was his best pal, he did not suffer fools gladly and had distinct likes and dislikes. Whilst Bright Shadow is such a steadying influence, do take notice of who handles your boy for you as he really needs a pal with whom to work...not someone who would be yanking him around. (note that I am assuming he is a stallion, very beautiful with a killer 'look at me' attitude?) Photos? And yes,
he is Kuhailan Ajuz of Ibn Rodan or Kuhailan Rodania."
Here are a few photos of him now at two years old, what do you think?
Thanks in anticipation |
