Fen is a striking AQHA Appendix stud colt with exceptional breeding, intelligence, and heart. He was born red and will turn a beautiful gray, making him as eye-catching as he is talented.
Just 24 hours after his birth, Fenβs dam β a mare we owned and cherished for 17 years β unexpectedly passed away. π In an incredible show of instinct, Fenβs full sister, now a two-year-old, immediately stepped in to help raise him, teaching him how to βhorseβ and even allowing him to nurse. (The chestnut mare pictured with him is his full sister and is also available.)
Despite his challenging start, Fen has thrived. He had a 24-hour-a-day feeding station set up for him, and he has grown into a strong, healthy colt with an exceptional mind.
Highlights:
β’ Kind, willing, and very people-oriented
β’ Calm-minded and thoughtful
β’ Extremely smart and quick to learn, often responding on the first ask (I swear he can read my mind!)
β’ Shows confidence without being pushy or reactive
β’ Consistently showing intelligence beyond his age and a genuine desire to please
