Aeditha is such a hard one for me to part with, because I'm so attached to her. I've taken her everywhere and done so much with her since she was a baby!
I bought Aeditha at 4 months old. She has been to the Minnesota State Fair multiple times, The Minnesota Horse Expo several years, and many shows, being shown by adults and youth. She spent two months at a local high school doing a youth horsemanship program. We've ponied her driving on the roads and really put a lot of groundwork into her.
She started riding training on January 15 2022, so she is green broke to ride. She was taken out of training April 1, 2022 and sat for the summer, but was restarted December 2022 and is coming along well. She is going to make a fancy english type pony. I would say she needs an intermediate or better rider, because she can lack confidence. She doesn't ever do anything bad, but she will spook sometimes (she shivers in place, no bolting, jumping etc), and she will sometimes move into a trot from the walk (she comes back down when asked). Therefore, I do not think she would work well for a rider who lacks confidence or doesn't have the proper skill to continue training her. She would make a nice step-up pony for a teenager, or a great mare for someone taking lessons and/or with horse experience.
She is eligible for registration with GHRA if you want to earn show points with her.
I really love this mare; she is such a kind and loving and trusting girl. But as a gypsy cross, she is always going to take a back burner as she doesn't work for my breeding or showing program. I'd love to find her a home where she will be front and center of the attention she deserves, rather than just sort of put on the back burner as my show horses and broodmares take priority. She is much too young for that.
I'll be very picky about the home that she goes to. I would prefer she stay local. While I am not against breeding her, I will not sell her to a breeding only home, as she has had much too much time invested into her to not make someone a wonderful riding partner.

Indigo's Royal Serafina
2014 Black Blanket/Varnish LP Gypsy Vanner Mare
GVHS registered
Color DNA: EE aa nLP W20W20
Pssm1: negative
FIS: Negative
Indigo's Royal Knight x DWF Dunamis
Approx 15 hands
$25,000
Raffi is a lovely taller daughter of Indigo. I love the Indigo lines and have two other Indigo daughters, but as we are cutting back we have decided that we don't need 3. Indigo is an accomplished dressage horse who is still competing at 20 years old! Raffi's dam, Duna, also competed successfully for several years in dressage, advancing to 3rd level, so this mare could definitely go the route of the Dressage Cob!
Raffi was broke to ride, but has only been lightly ridden since before her foal was born in 2022 and would need a refresher. She is definitely a more whoa than go horse and with a quick tune up should be a nice beginner's type horse. She has been ridden in 2024 and did what she was asked although wasn't interested in moving into a canter. She has had two fillies and is an excellent mama! Both of her fillies were so sweet and easy to work with. Raffi is great about letting people handle her foals and takes good care of her babies.
Raffi is available as we are cutting down out breeding program and have young stock growing up, and we just need to make some hard decisions.

HP Rarity
Palomino Gypsy Vanner Mare
Born June 29, 2018
GVHS Registered
Will be microchipped prior to leaving
DNA: ee aa nCR W20/W20 nPATN1
Pssm1: n/n
FIS: n/n
Height: ~15-15.1 hands
$25,000 open (can be put in foal for free)
$34,000 three-in-one with her buckskin pintaloosa colt and bred back
St Brendan's Cream x Lone Cypress Farms Blueberry
Rarity was bred and foaled at the farm out of one of my very best mares and by champion western pleasure stallion St Brendan's Cream. She is a very sweet and loving girl who is an excellent mama and loves people and attention.
Rarity was lovingly raised and is a very trusting girl, but unlike most gypsies she is a bit more reactive than most. This is just her general nature. She can spook but she doesn't bolt and is very careful not to jump into the person handling her if she does. Therefore, she would be best suited for someone who is patient and has some horse experience. She is very good about letting people handle her foal and the colt she has is the bravest one in the pasture this year.
She is available open, bred back (for free), and in a 3-in-one package with her buckskin pintaloosa 2024 colt. If you wish to buy her open or bred back, she is available on payments or with a deposit to be paid in full at weaning. Note that her foal is the one in the second photo, not the white foal.
This is a lovely hard to find taller palomino mare who also has the PATN1 gene for those wanting to breed LP.
