Thank you, Leslie Rebtoy!

Our ribbon winning appy girl, Freestylin,' has the pizazz and flair of a X-Game skier! Her fiber is rockin' good and she knows it!

She is an upright girl with good conformation in a balanced frame with solid bones. She has a regal stance, with a beautiful headstyle accented by her coloration. Her fiber is nicely organized into shiny 'bundles' with fineness and crimp consistent across her blanket and staple. Her fiber qualities are also consistent between her light and dark areas -- with no change in crimp and micron. Her fiber feels wonderful and this this soft handling fleece is packed on her body in fantastic density.

Her coloration is surprising subtle, with lots of small dots of color throughout her blanket. Her fiber always garners admirers and compliments, not the least of which from the judges. In the halter ring, her fiber was described as 'buttery' by a judge. And, let's not forget that her 2-yr-old fleece won Reserve Champion the mixed multi class at the 2017 ABR Fall Festival and Color Champion at the 2018 TXOLAN Spectacular Feece Show.

She is a solid, compact girl. Michael calls her 'bulldog' for a nickname because she is as strong as an ox. Now that we have shown sheep, I think I would call her lambchop since she really knows how to brace. However, once you have her in a head 'cradle hold' or an a lead, she is calm and relaxed!

The last gem of our appy program, she was retained to see if we can breed harle grey from her. You may have heard some people say that appaloosa bred to black will make harlequin grey -- we did, too, and want to try since we are completely out of the appaloosa breeding and focused on breeding dark. So, to up the ante, Stylin' was bred to our multiple champion back male, Secret (who happens to also be the sire of another multiple champion black sire of ours, Black Maelstrom). But from this black breeding she had an appaloosa male that was a "failure to thrive" to no fault of her in her mothering skills. She was wonderfully attentive which was just heartbreaking to watch as she looked & looked for her lost cria. She is a great mom and has had exceptional fleece qualities. We are really torn because of these two traits, but in the end we were wanting to produce grey from her with this black breeding and thus really need to consider finding her a new home. When we have a loss like this, we breed the dam again to another to verify her viability, but if you really interested in adding her to your appaloosa program now, let us know and we can talk about what price and terms could be acceptable. At this point, we are likely leaning towards breeding her to our fawn herdsire Axios or perhaps try again for grey via a modern grey herdsire.
