Hidden Ponds offers several guarantees on our foals. All of our foals will be used to wearing a halter and will be trained to lead, tie, and allow their feet to be handled. In addition, they will all be registered with GVHS, and we transfer the paperwork directly into the owner's name once the horse has been paid in full (or after gelding, for colts). We microchip all of our homebred foals and register their microchips in the national database. We color and genetic panel health test any potential breeding stock and results are always available to view. Finally, we guarantee our horses HEALTHY at weaning, meaning that we feel as breeders that it is our responsibility to make sure that we are delivering to you a healthy animal. Buyers are not required to pick up insurance on foals prior to weaning, as we do not feel that you should be financially responsible for an animal that cannot be in your care.
Most of our colts are sold on gelding contracts and will leave gelded. This one may be sold in-tact to an approved home only. Approved homes must have previous stallion owning and presenting experience, and/or be a proven show home with the gypsy breed circuit. In general, we do not sell colts to first-time stallion owners. Certain exceptions may be made for proven breeding and show homes. We offer free gelding on colts who are physically mature enough to be gelded (usually age 9 months and older).
We do offer payments on foals, as well as older horses.
Prices discounted for fall 2023!

HP The Pharaoh
Chestnut Blagdon Gypsy Vanner Colt

EMH: 14.2-14.3 hands
SALE $16,000
St. Brendan's Cream x Lags Mare
This colt is one that I had retained and not offered for sale until just recently, as I think he will make a nice stallion prospect for those interested in the heavy, Irish type horses. However, I had ten colts born in 2021 and another 8 born in 2022 and I just can't keep everything.
This colt is by Champion stallion St Brendan's Cream. We no longer own Brendan as we retained a few fillies by him and have young stallions that need showing and promoting.
He is out of none other than my very well known imported mare, Lags Mare. Lags Mare is a very heavy old type Irish mare. He takes after Lags Mare in many ways and I am excited to see how he matures. I have retained 3 of Lags Mare's fillies, which is the only reason I decided to offer him. If he was a filly, he would never be offered.
He is a unique chestnut blagdon with an unidentified roaning pattern. He does not have the sabino gene. He has excellent, thick feather coming in and should be a fantastic old type example of the breed.
Personality wise, this is a very laid back, quiet colt that is easy to work with and will do what you ask without much prompting. He is a very trusting colt and has a super quiet disposition.
He is halter broke, fully vaccinated, and can leave any time.
He will be dewormed regularly, vaccinated, microchipped, registered, and of course be trimmed before he goes and come with a coggins.

Bandera Broadchurch x Minnie's Silver Pearl
This colt really is something else! I rarely get one as flashy as him.
This stunning boy is going to make an incredible show horse and/or herd sire. He will always throw a black base, and half the time with the silver dapple gene. He can also throw tobianos, spotteds, solids, and pintaloosas.
He is a pretty bold and brave boy, but has common sense. He is quiet and easy to handle. He is friendly and has that "pick me! Pick me!" attitude when I come into the pasture. He will put the halter right on himself!
Like all of our foals, he comes registered and microchipped, will be halter broke (catch, lead, tie, allow feet to be handled) , dewormed and trimmed, and vaccinated, plus has a health guarantee. He has been fully genetic tested for color and gypsy disease panel. We offer free gelding for gelding homes, including follow up care. He comes with a coggins certificate and a health certificate if he has to travel out of state.

SD Gold Top x Brier Rose
I love this colt so much and was holding him back to be a show gelding for me, but I just have so many boys right now that I am making him available for a while either until I decrease my colt numbers or until he is sold.
He is by none other than SD Gold Top, and out of a daughter of Eddie Alcock's Old Black Horse. You don't find too many young grandbabies of that great foundation stallion too often! His dam, Rose, was his last foal crop and was born after his death.
Prince is the sweetest colt and so easy to work with. He loves people and attention. He has been body clipped once and bathed a few times. He is silly and playful.
Like all of our foals, he comes registered and microchipped, will be halter broke (catch, lead, tie, allow feet to be handled) , dewormed and trimmed, and vaccinated, plus has a health guarantee. He has been fully genetic tested for color and gypsy disease panel. We offer free gelding for gelding homes, including follow up care.

GFR Silver Spirit x Indigo's Royal Arielle
This boy is something special!
Whether you want a fancy gelding or a stallion that can throw a variety of colors, this boy can do both.
With his LP and PATN1 gene, he is already starting to varnish and I expect that he will varnish out a lot like his dam. He can never throw a red based foal, so all his foals will be black or bay based (silver black, silver bay). He can throw tobianos, solids, and spotted foals, with blankets, leopards, and varnish! In addition, he has two gorgeous blue eyes!
He is sired by halter National Champion GFR Silver Spirit, and out of an Indigo's Royal Knight daughter, so he has the lines for both performance and halter. Indigo is still competing in dressage at 20 years of age!
Personality wise, this colt is more sensitive than some of my others. He is quiet, but will be a bit more reactive than some of the other colts that I have. For a performance mount, this is desirable because it means he won't be dull and will probably be more talented than some of my other colts. For a kid's mount, he is going to be less suitable than some of my other colts. He is by no means hot, aggressive, or anything like that; he is just going to be insulted more easily and understand more subtle queues better and faster than some other horses. He will need someone with patience, since he is a very sensitive boy who doesn't immediately trust strangers.
He is weaned and ready to go any time. We just need enough time to get his vet travel paperwork in order!
Like all of our foals, he comes registered and microchipped, will be halter broke (catch, lead, tie, allow feet to be handled) , dewormed and trimmed, and vaccinated, plus has a health guarantee. He has been fully genetic tested for color and gypsy disease panel. We offer free gelding for gelding homes, including follow up care. He comes with a coggins certificate and a health certificate if he has to travel out of state.

UNDER CONTRACT
SD Gold Top x Giselle of Finnegan's Fields
Want a boy with presence?? This boy has it!
This gorgeous colt has that "look at me" attitude that makes him stand apart. He is going to be a tank, with his gorgeous, thick build. If kept in tact, he will be able to sire grey, palomino, and chestnut foals, and will be able to sire buckskins if bred to bay or black mares!
If I wasn't overrrun with colts from having 3 years in a row where I got nearly all colts, he would be a keeper. I don't have too many that have this sort of presence right from the day they're born!
Like all of our foals, he comes registered and microchipped, will be halter broke (catch, lead, tie, allow feet to be handled) , dewormed and trimmed, and vaccinated, plus has a health guarantee. He has been fully genetic tested for color and gypsy disease panel. We offer free gelding for gelding homes, including follow up care.

$9,000 GELDING CONTRACT
SD Gold Top x Silver Star Crescent Moon
This is a lovely boy who is kind and easy to handle. He is still a bit shy, which is normal with young foals. Although he is very pale right now, I do expect him to turn into a golden palomino as a yearling, since all of Gold Top's other solid palomino foals (without grey or LP) have been born pale and by their yearling year turned a deep gold. He will probably be dappled also, since both parents are.
His sire is a Legion of Honor earner and 2x GHRA Ambassador, as well as a GVHS Top Ten performance stallion. His dam has points in halter and performance and is a halter class winner.
We would like to see this boy in a gelding home, and therefore is being offered at a discounted price on a GELDING contract. (He is not available at this price in tact). He will be gelded before he leaves.
This boy is SUPER sweet and loves his person. He is a bit shy of strangers yet but warms up quickly. He is silly and playful and always trying to get your attention once he has warmed up to you.
Like all of our foals, he comes registered and microchipped, will be halter broke (catch, lead, tie, allow feet to be handled) , dewormed and trimmed, and vaccinated, plus has a health guarantee. He has been fully genetic tested for color and gypsy disease panel. We offer free gelding for gelding homes, including follow up care. He comes with a coggins certificate and a health certificate if he has to travel out of state.

SD Gold Top x Wild Rose Gwenhwyfar
This gorgeous boy is super sweet and will be a guaranteed color sire! He will always throw the cream gene to every foal he has. We had hoped to retain him, but just keep getting more and more boys and we can't keep them all
This boy is sweet and calm and not a very reactive boy. He is a bit shy of strangers but warms up fast. He is well mannered with a quiet disposition.
Like all of our foals, he comes registered and microchipped, will be halter broke (catch, lead, tie, allow feet to be handled) , dewormed and trimmed, and vaccinated, plus has a health guarantee.

SD Gold Top x North Fork Aslan's Amber Dancer
This colt is only available because I have more than enough colts right now and really don't need another, but I don't mind keeping him and growing him out either!
This fancy boy is out of my halter champion North Fork Aslan's Amber Dancer and by none other than multi-champion stallion SD Gold Top. He is going to make an excellent halter horse and still be able to perform. He is from non-Hermit's lines, making him especially special since nearly all the cream LPs out there are descended from Frilenis Ailill.
This boy has a lot of common sense and is easy to work with. This colt learns quickly and has a calm, laid back personality. He is wise beyond his time on Earth. This is a very easy to handle colt who doesn't test, is brave, and has a good, solid mind. This is one of the most laid back colts I've had.
Hotspot does currently have a retained testicle. It was palpated at birth by our vet, but right now I can't find it. It may drop yet as a two year old, but if you want a gelding we are happy to pay for his gelding surgery at the University of Minnesota. He will either be gelded once his testicle drops, once he is under a sales contract, or right before he turns 3 years old, whichever comes first. Our vet has advised us that they can sometimes drop before the age of 3 and so to wait unless necessary.
Like all of our foals, he comes registered and microchipped, will be halter broke (catch, lead, tie, allow feet to be handled) , dewormed and trimmed, and vaccinated, plus has a health guarantee. He has been fully genetic tested for color and gypsy disease panel. We offer free gelding for gelding homes, including follow up care. He comes with a coggins certificate and a health certificate if he has to travel out of state.
