8/24/2008 Hiltje has a new son born May 13, and his name is Beau. Beau is a very big foal with quite the attitude. Just full of himself and proud as he can be. Beau's dad is Wander 352 and Beau is the full brother to our Cori and Dusti Perdue's Jantsje. While Cori is a piddling 16 hands tall, Jantsje is 17 hands and Beau is gonna be a whopper too. He has a lovely conformation and movement - one of Hiltje's best foals so far I think. But all her foals are nice and I like every one of them. Beau is for sale, but we're getting awfully attached to him. By the way, you can see another video of Beau when he was only 5 hours out. Check out Beau's Day One video and story.
Dahlia's new foal is Chip (Friesian "Tsjip" but pronounced the same way as the English "Chip". This is one of my favorite Friesian names so I'll spell it the Friesian way), born May 29. Tsjip's father is Feike 395, who is doing very well in dressage. Tsjip, like his half sister Tara before him, is incredibly good to work with and easy to train. At 10 weeks he has made huge progress in his baby training. He is also showing a bold trot, like his momma. Tsjip has been sold to a local woman who has long wanted "an Everhart Friesian" (as she calls our foals). She plans to train and show Tsjip both in harness and under saddle. He should be great at both - lovely movement but a level headed guy.
So, here are some recent video of the new foals. I selected music from one of my favorite sound tracks. Say hello to Butch and Sundance... er, I mean
Beau
and
Tsjip
And check out some photos by Sara Andrew, who is becoming quite the photographer.
