The Black Drink Is Born
Finally! Last night after the last round of storms Baton Rouge gave birth to a colt fathered by Tradewind. At the moment he is sorrel looking but may darken into a bay like his father.
He is strong, firm and healthy. I hope to locate him either in Florida or the Tennessee/ Ohio region. That will help distribute the stallions that are being used in the offsite breeding program to additional regions of the country.
He is named for the Indian opponent of European expansion by the same name. Hope to have two more foals born in the next few days.
Here is a shot of Tradewind at Wild Horse Days in Corolla.
