Hi friends! Sorry it's been quite some time since I've posted; life has been a little less then chaotic 🤣🤣! But I wanted to touch base and just update our preliminary breeding plans!!
this year we decided to do Something a little different!! we are going to ICSI Envy, Barrett, Beretta, Armi & Trigger. Bulliet and Sig will carry as per usual, and we will likely ICSI Kimber later on in the year as she is carrying a late foal!!

Envy "CR Got To Be Tuff x Hesa Dual Bet & Memreyble
Trigger "My Fancy Red Dually x Memreyble & Hey Babe
Barrett "Smart Metalena Cat" x Badboonarising & Hottish Metal
Beretta "Lil Princess Lena" x Hottish & Hey Babe
Armi " Hot Nurse" x Once In A Blu Boon & Hey Babe
Bulliet " Classy Lil Sas" x Catolena Cashin In
Sig " Highly Dezirable" x TBD
Kimber " A Lot" TBD

After last year's really tough season with a goal of 11 foals we ended up with 3
A Lot x Cool N Hot
A Lot x Dual Reyish
Highly Dezireable x Third Edge
All 3 will be offered for sale!
We are hoping for a successful year of ICSI and getting some embryos banked for the future!!
Happy Sunday y'all

Hello friends!! Just a little life update! Things have been utter chaos at RMR!
Some good and some not so good!
Breeding season has continuously been a huge heart breaker! Our 2026 goal was 11 foals, closing in on October, we currently have 3 that made it past the 90 day mark, with 2 more to send bloodwork out on next week (bit im not optimistic) !
Rowan has had a fairly good show season picking up $ nearly every outing, we've had a handful of show pen set backs but thats the beauty of this life! We take all the good with the bad!
My recent addition of Hot Nurse "Armi" is turning out to be far better then I could have imagined! After owning her for just 6 days we entered the show pen in Bloomsburg PA, our first walk to the herd under the guidance of Paul Wasyln we marked a 73! The second day we had a little tougher luck marking a 69, then day three another 73 , adding 1400 to her LTE on our first outing! She came along to ARCHA and kept her streak marking a 72.5 picking up an additional $123 in club $!
This week we head to Lewisburg WV with Paul & his Diamond C crew to keep the momentum going!
Hope everyone has a great week!

Enjoy some recent highlights

Sorry friends! Its been a bit since I've updated the ranch page! It's been a busy 2025 so far with our show season, breeding and foaling season! We've had a rough go getting the mares to cycle but it seems they are all on the right track! This weekend Rowan and I headed to Dillsburg for the ARCHA dust off the rust show and had a great weekend! And of course, while we were gone 2 of the 3 mares left to foal decided to release their hostages! 6, 3 & 2 days early ! Ruby foaled a beautiful palomino filly out of Trigger by One Shiney Metallic, Hope foaled a beautiful sorrel filly out of Barrett by CR Gotcha Covered and Bulliet foaled her own chestnut filly by Storyteler!
This week will be a little quieter in the breeding shed with only Barrett being bred tomorrow to Badboonarising!

Smart Metalena Cat x Catolena Cashin In

I was going to go in order of when the mares joined the RMR but being we are 27 days till Barretts first foal I figured I would introduce her next!
Smart Metalena Cat!! The true diamond in the rough! Barrett is a 2015 own daughter of the great Metallic Cat! She is out of a earning producing daughter of Travalena! Barrett was acquired in the summer of 2020, after we had acquired Bulliet (introduction coming soon) we were "gifted" a breeding to Smart Little Lena (which we have yet to use LOL) and had no mare to use it on! So, we were looking for a Highbrow Cat daughter, and after coming up empty handed, we stumbled upon Barrett!
She was a horse who fell through the cracks and really had no traceable history of who/where she was trained! I attempted to show her a time or 2 in the first few months that I had her but decided she needed to go to a refresher! So off to Texas she went! I traveled out there to a few months later to ride her get some lessons on how to properly ride her and bring her home, while there we took her to a show in paradise Texas hosted by the WCHA and both Rick and I won a check on her! it was in that moment we knew she had a whole lot more to give! She spent from the end 2020 to the beginning of 2023 at Hayes Performance Horses showing under Rick and I (when i could get out there), Her first year showing, she shot up in the standings in the 25 Novice horse finishing the year out at 3rd place! Her second year showing she won the year end in the 25k Novice horse, and I was blessed enough to make a solid run at the 15k amateur, finishing 3rd place for the year end, and along with the WCHA titles she was a USCHA congress 5k novice horse champion and finished the year end in the top 5 of the 5k NH! In early 2023 we brought her home to be bred and sadly were unsuccessful our first season (by no fault of hers), so in 2024 we decided to flush her twice, once to Catolena Cashin In and to CR Gotcha Covered! In her short show career Barrett amassed $17,453 across several associations and has become a permanent resident of RMR! After the NCHA eastern nationals this year she will be fully retired as a broodmare!

Hello friends!
I mentioned I was going to introduce the Mares of RMR, its been a little crazy around here with the holidays, weather, puppies & common winter illnesses LOL
But lets start with the Pseudo original red mare!!
"Beretta" Lil Princess Lena, an own daughter of the late great Smart Little Lena out of Young Gun Princess!
she is a 2011 model and stands a whopping 14hh!
We acquired Beretta in 2018!
She started showing ARHA full time in 2019, in the 3 years we showed together she amased 190 confirmation points, 700 non cattle performance points and $1,100 cattle performance points among all 3 divisions, she also has several world show top 10 championships, and 7 ROMS between the open and Ama divisions! she is happily semi-retired, getting called on every now and then to go play! She will be bred to our resident stallion Hey Babe, 2020 Red Roan Stallion for a 2026 foal :)

So its winter here in upstate NY, and we will be gearing up for foaling and breeding season here starting with Sophia who is carrying the first ever Smart Metalena Cat baby! Most of you who like and follow this page know me personally and my herd so "Barrett" needs no introduction but for those who either follow from afar or are new here, I will give a rundown on each mare their accomplishments and the sire of each offspring!! So be on the lookout for their posts!
I will also feature our recip mares as they are doing most the work so the showgirls can stay in the show pen!!
Happy Sunday!
