About to Become a Father Again




Manteo will be a father once more within the next few weeks. The foal will belong to my neice and will not become part of the off site breeding program. The foal will be a half Corolla. The mother shares Manteo's intelligence and gentle nature.

This is an important reason to prevent the extinction of the Corollas. The half Corollas that we have produced are superior horses with an ease of trainability that matches that of the Corolla parent. Wonderful horses can be produced by crossing outside mares with Corolla stallions.

Aside from their gentleness, the Corollas have amazing endurance. One day I would love to put a Corolla mind in an Arabian body. That would be a special cross indeed.
