Waiting to get papers as the one I got them from didn't care so trying to back track to get them. Hopefully very quickly with out difficulties.
Mare is named Breeze stallion named Apache. Not sure if part of reg name or not.
Mare is 5 Stallion 9 different breeders. There had one foal together. Not sure when mare is due but has a bit of an udder...
Stallion first, the leopard . mare second varnish or fewspot?

Oh, I'm so jealous!! But congrats in spite of that, they look marvelous. I'm like Diane and would love to know pedigree if you're fortunate enough to get them.

So what are your plans for them?

They are beautiful!  My first impression is Varnish, not fewspot, especially with those dark knees.  But they are both beautiful, as should the little one be!!

Thank you! I hope to do my obstacles with the stallion. Would love to do some local shows.
He has quite a rambunctious personality so he will be perfect, but maybe a bit of pistol. Which is fine with me!
I see varnish too....  And I really can't decide on base color for Apache...his spots are all black, tail black but has that strange brownish color on face legs and armpits....

Appy causes color shifting, so just about anything is possible for base color, but probably black, or maybe seal brown.
