Eagles Mity Ole Man |
In 2010 the ranch expects offspring from Paint stallions Bears Q Ton Poco and Dakotas Royal Raven.
Bears Q Ton Poco and Eagles Mity Ole Man are available for coverings with Paint and Quarter mares in 2010.
Some of the breeding mares that are in foal are for sale for the Paint lover.
The first foals are expected to be born in the stables in March 2010.
Foals on show
On Saturday 29 May 2010 (10am - 3pm) we will put them on show to the public.
Foals at the Eagles Ranch
At our ranch American Paint Horses are bred with our own breeding stallions that cover all of our breeding mares in their natural environments in the pasture. 
The foals and mares go outside in the great pastures so they can move around and exercise freely, they can play with their peers and can also find a quiet spot to sleep. The mares as joint guardians protect the little ones
<< For sale >>
These foals and some of the mares are for sale.

Eagles Summer Event

Paints and Pinto's
Haflinger mare Amber with her Pinto foal Eagles Royal Savage.
Each paint foal born at the Eagles Ranch every year is entered into the United States www.apha.com pedigree and are for sale for real paint horse fanciers.
However, one or two foals are offspring of one of the Paint stallions, but do not have a full breed Paint dam. Therefore they are called Pinto. For example, in the photograph above you can find Haflinger mare Amber with her Pinto foal Eagles Royal Savage.
Foal rearing
It is possible to have your foals reared in our foal rearing.
At the moment we rear foals of different races and from all over the country in the rearing boxes. You can make a reservation for either your foals or yearling or older horse now.
Foals stay in herds with their peers and in winter at night they are kept in the foal rearing boxes. We have 3 of those boxes.

Stallions are welcome until the winter when they are two years old. It is possible to stay in rearing after that, but from that age on they remain outside in the meadow with their peers day and night.
