Herd Environment
Our horses thrive in a free-roaming herd environment that promotes fitness, agility, and mental well-being. With access to ample acreage and varied terrain, horses engage in natural behaviors, build strong social bonds, and enjoy a stress-free lifestyle. We are dedicated to creating well-balanced, content horses, showcasing the remarkable benefits of responsible, natural horse care.
Care and Management
All horses in our herd are kept barefoot, supporting natural hoof health without shoeing or frequent farrier visits. They generally have mild temperaments, no aggressive behaviors, and are easy keepers.
These ponies are descended from breeding stock acquired in the early 1980s from registered lines. My original stallion was Cremello (a color previously excluded from the Quarter Horse registry) providing the genetics required to produce Palominos. All offspring are eligible for registration with the American Quarter Pony Association (AQPA) and the International Quarter Pony Association (IQPA) based on conformation. None of these horses are currently registered.

All horses are project horses, ranging from foals to teens. All are under 14 hands, typically ranging from 11.2 to 13.2 hands when mature, although some mature at 10.2 hands. Colts generally mature slightly larger than fillies (but not always). They are field gentle, lightly handled, and have no formal training.
Additional Information
This herd reduction is due to recent drought years, health concerns, and pending retirement. I’ll continue to have foals available as long as circumstances permit.
Located approximately one hour east of Kansas City, I plan to sell at least 12 adult horses; the ones listed are only a sample of what is available.
Please include your preferences for age, gender, color, and budget range in your contact info. If I find a match to your specifications, I will respond with additional information.
I look forward to helping you find your perfect match.
Shipping Notes
Regarding transportation, my buyers typically provide their own transportation or coordinate shipping with another buyer. I’m willing to coordinate with a shipper, but I do not arrange or provide transportation myself.
