Welcome to Our Farm Walkers!(And now Minis!) We are a family run small breeding farm, we have recently changed our breeding focus from Tennessee Walkers to Miniature Horses! Our Farm is located in south central Kentucky and is owned by Tom and Gina Hinebaugh, with the help of our children Rainy and A.J. Contact us at ourfarm@duo-county.com
UPDATE! I am beginning my search to add a second stallion to our farm. If you have a stallion or colt that meets the criteria, let me know! What Im looking for-AMHA or AMHA/AMHR buckskin (not sooty and not silver buckskin) Appaloosa. A fairly loud pattern-good size blanket or leopard, or a snow cap or few spot. Mature height under 32". Correct conformation, straight legs, good bite, no stifle problems. fairly refined, doesnt have to be extreme but I dont want stocky. Excellent temperment-I realize its a stallion, but i am spoiled because Magnum is such a sweet, easygoing guy I want another with a great temperment also. Age-any but not over about 15 or so. A weanling or yearling would be fine. Other things I would like but not a must-good pedigree, prefer a face marking of some sort, a pinto pattern would be fine in addition to the appaloosa, blue eyes would be a plus.
About Our Farm! We have recently changed our breeding goals, from Tennessee Walkers to Miniature Horses. It was hard to let our Walkers go, but we felt our time, space, and interests are better suited by Miniature Horses. We have gotten our first Minis and are so pleased with them! Our mini mares are done foaling for this year, and all our mini babies have sold! The mares are bred to our Pintaloosa stallion Magnum for foals for sale by him in 2009.
Having learned alot while breeding the Tennessee Walkers, we felt it was important to have goals in mind while choosing breeding stock in our Miniatures. We had these goals in mind for the Minis: first of all, temperment! Our children enjoy helping with the horses, so no nasty temperments will be tolerated! Next we wanted good correct conformation, with no bite or leg problems sometimes seen in Minis. Our size goal is the 30" to 32" range, we were a bit afraid of getting mares smaller than that for fear of foaling issues, but we are trying to be sure our future foals will stay under 34" so they wont go over the AMHA height limit. We also want horses with talent, and our Pintaloosa stallion has been shown successfully in roadster and country pleasure classes at many AMHA and AMHR shows by his previous owner. As far as pedigree, we know its not the most important, but we do have several nice bloodlines in our herd, including Orion Light Vant Huttenest, Indian Snow, Toyland Zodiac, Gold Melody Boy, Yellow Diamond Little Feather, Rowdy, and Lazy Ns Boogerman just to name a few. And last but not least, we love color! Having a Pintaloosa stallion, we are hoping for colorful foals from our Appaloosa, overo, and pinto mares.
We hope you enjoy your visit to the site, please come back often as I will be adding much more pictures and info as we add more miniatures to the herd!
