Hi Everyone,

There will be three two year old Sulphur mares available for adoption at Gainesville. I have been told
all three are good quality with one being exceptional. Please help spread the word.

Sheri, I believe this was the time you got your Conger Mare also, and she was a dun If I remember correctly.  Also prior to the Sulphur's being placed on the Conger there were no duns in the herd.

Be really interesting to see what is gathered from the Conger in August. Would love to be able to DNA test the duns coming off.

 

Sorry I'm so long getting back on this.  It's been a busy week.  The mare I adopted off the Congers was a silver grullo.   

Thanks Charlie!

No black balloons, he knew better.

Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to You.

Remember this: after 50 if it don't hurt it don't work! LOL!

Has Rick set up the Black Balloons yet?

No he didn't. At least according to Ron, he did not.

I thought that Gale Bennett took the pictures of the Blue Stallion when he was in the BLM pens?

Going to contact Gus Warr's boss. The one that took photos of 596 and was responsible for where he went to get down to the bottom of what exactly happened to him.

I copied this from the history on your (KimJ) site.
This was written from notes from Gale Bennett. The SHR numbered horses were added by the writer. I know who wrote it and I have personally seen the stack of notes and read a few myself. I will vouch for the writer and that the notes existed and were in Gale Bennett's handwriting.

July 1992-10 horses (including Mestene, SHR 1023) gathered at a trap several miles south of Cougar Spring, (the bloodtyping notes say Indian Peak [Green Canyon], but further research indicates the trap was on the Speers reseed, several miles to the northwest of the actual peak) and placed for adoption. These horses were water trapped (one of them, 596 or the "Blue Stallion", was released into the Conger HMA).

This could be why Ron R never saw him again on the Sulphur HMA.

We were discussing this on the HOA board this evening. I remember when KimJ Got La Victoria that a question was asked if she could be the daughter of the Blue Stallion. The answer was robably not as the Blue stallion and other Sulphur's were put on the Conger HMA prior to te time that La Victoria's Dam would have been bred to foal her when she did.
