Buck would like to introduce the fine mares of Lumbertown Farm

At Lumbertown Farm, we recognize the fact that the stallion is only part of the equation when it comes to producing quality foals. The other part of the equation is the MARE. An outstanding stallion is only enhanced by an outstanding mare, and we think we have both.

Our mares were purchased first as riding horses. We believe that the qualities that make an excellent riding horse: conformation, disposition, willingness and gaiting ability, are also the qualities needed to produce excellent foals. All our mares are broke to ride and are ridden regularly.

Now take a moment and meet them for yourself:

Baby Cakes THWBEA #911626

15.1 Hand Black Mare

Baby Cakes, a.k.a. Babe, is a mare with a huge heart and it shows. This mare suffered a serious life-threatening illness a few years ago and came back to be able to complete the Michigan Trail Riders Shore-to-Shore ride in 2000.(click on the horse to learn more about the MTRA)

As you can tell from the above photo, Babe encompasses fine walking horse conformation. Her deep heartgirth and great hip and shoulder angles enable her to provide a smooth easy going gait. Her beautiful head is graced with elegantly hooked ears and her long neck and naturally clean throatlatch allow for easy collection and impulsion. She is one of the most consistent and willing horses you could ask for. "Ride with Pride" is one of the first things that comes to mind when you are atop this marvelous mare.

Babe is the daughter of Johnny Cash, by Johnny Midnight, and a direct daughter of Ebony Masterpiece, Miss Ebony H. These creditials, more than words, tell you want a fine animal she is.

Babe is in foal to Buck. She is due mid-January 2006 and this foal is destined to be wonderful. Check out our foal page in the future for this announcement.

China Dolls Chauntea Copy TWHBEA #924722

15.0 Hand Black Sabino Mare

China Dolls Chauntea Copy, Chauntea, was an unexpected and welcome addition to the mares of Lumbertown Farm. This amazingly talented mare has such notable names in her pedigree as Entertaining Copy (numerous times WHAM Sire of the Year), GLL's Carbon Copy, Roger's Perfection, Merry Walker, Midnight Sun, The Entertainer, Ebony Masterpiece, Mack K"s Handshaker and the list goes on and on.

Chauntea's coloring is absolutely eye-catching. She has a beautiful refined head and huge expressive eyes. She carries herself with an air of elegance which did her proud in the show ring in the past. She has a kind, willing disposition.

She foaled an awesome classic champagne colt by Buck in October of 2005. Perfect'ns Lethal Weapon (Gibson) is listed on our sale page and speaks volumes for both dam and sire. We look forward to repeating this breeding with the same amazing results.

Champagne Queenly Aire THWBEA #940632

15.3 Hand Black Mare

Champagne Queenly Aire, a.k.a. Leeaire, is a black daughter of the classic champagne stallion, Champagne Look, and out of Gold Coin's Heiress, daughter of Pride's Gold Coin.

Leeaire has a huge stride and lots of heart. Her sloping hindquarters and short back allow for her to get well under herself to enhance her gait. She has a natural head nodding, loose running walk that covers the ground. Her easy going nature enables you to stop and chat on the trail without any impatience and yet, her willingness to work means you only need to ask to be covering the ground.

The proof of her pedigree is in the individual herself. She is one of the sweetest horses to be around. This trait, coupled with Buck's great disposition, was passed on to her first foal, Perfect'ns Chrystal Aire. Chrystal is a beautiful golden liver chestnut color with both outstanding  movement and attitude. She can be seen on the foal page, too.

Rebels Spicy Dancer TWHBEA #946950

14.3 Sorrel Mare

Rebels Spicy Dancer, Spice, came to us from the hills of Kentucky. She has one of the prettiest heads you will ever see on a walking horse. This pretty head sits on a beautiful arched neck covered in a thick, long flowing mane. Spice puts her nice conformation to good use in a wonderfully smooth gait.

Names included in Spice's pedigree include Midnight Sun, Triple Threat, Ebony Masterpiece, Merry Go Boy, and Pride of Midnight H.F.

Spice was bred to Buck and produced a huge bright sorrel filly, Perfect'ns Icy Shamrock (Shammi), who is listed on our sale page.

Miss Lady's Shadow TWHBEA #962136

15.3 HH Liver Chestnut Sabino

Serena's papers look like a who's who of both the Walking and Spotted Saddle horse world. With a genelogy that includes greats like Spotted Alen Again, Midnight Curlee"P", Little Merry Boy, Midnight Mack K, and, of course, Mack K's Handshaker, this beauiful, solidly-built mare is destine to "walk up a storm".

Serena has only recently joined the mare band at Lumbertown Farm but we have great expectations for this mare. She shows intelligence and style. She is built to cover the ground and do it all day long. Having already done the Michigan Trail Riders Shore-To-Shore ride with a previous owner, we hope to have her on the ride again in the near future.

Besides outstanding color, Serena has a long elegant neck, strong back, substantial bone and hoof. She possesses all the qualities that we look for in a mare. Foals out of the cross between her and Buck should be outstanding.

Peppered with Goldust TWHBEA #970237/CH

15.0 Hand Chestnut

Peppered with Goldust, Chili, is the most recent addition to the mare herd at Lumbertown. This chestnut daughter of Tennessee Goldust and F-88's Barbie Allen shows great potential as both a broodmare and trail horse. Her enormous kind eye seems to be a window to her soul. She gives every indication that she will "do her daddy proud".

Chili is a solidly built mare with excellent angles to both her shoulder and hip. She currently lacks significant experience on the trail but we are anxious to remedy that situation.

Chili is in foal to Buck. She is due in March of '07 and this should be a exciting foal! Keep watching for annoucements.

Beauty and the Best TWHBEA #19902118/BL

14.3 Hand Black and White Tobiano

Beauty and the Best, Belle, is a mare that exudes personality. What she lacks in stature, she makes up in presence. This mare is build to boogie and she does. She has plenty of heart and a wonderful mind.

Belle's pedigree includes famous Walking Horse names like Go Boy's Shadow, Ebony Masterpiece, Midnight Sun, Wilson's Snip Chance and more.

Belle came to us bred to Pushin' From A Porsche and produced an absolutely stunning black sabino filly, Beauty's Secret Legend (Legend). Because she was bred and we had other mares to ride, Belle got last year off. We are looking forward to hitting the trails with this snappy little mare who is bound to catch eyes wherever she goes.

We expect to breed Belle to Buck sometime early this year. Keep watching for upcoming announcements.

 These are the beautiful, well-bred mares of Lumbertown Farm.
