I received an email from a friend about two Pryor Horses that need to find a new home. The horses are Fettucine (who is 7 years old) and her 2-year-old colt. They are located in Helena, Montana and do not have much training.
I decided to do a post on them, in hopes that it would help find them a home.
If anyone does not have room to buy and give these horses a good home, another opinion for these beautiful Pryor Horses is if someone is willing to pay for them. My friend would be willing to haul them to her place and give them further training until a good home can be found. Also the colt could be gelded if that is what someone would like.
Here is a bit of history on these two. Thanks Alex for providing me with this!
Fettuccine is the first Washakie X Baja offspring. She was born in 2005 , and she left Baja’s harem in early 2006 and went with the stallion Morning star where she spent the whole summer.
In late August she was taken by the stallion Blue moon , staying with him for a few days and then she was taken by the removed stallion Stiles. She stayed with Stiles but they weren’t really bonded.
One day Stiles was trying to get back Teton’s harem that he had stolen back in 2006 and while he was fighting with Teton, the stallion Cloud swooped in and snaked her to his band. As soon as Fettuccine arrived in Clouds band The mares Scarlet and Aztec chased all over the place and the only mare that protected her was Baileys. Once the situation settled in the band she had found her place in the family.
In the spring of 2008 she gave birth to a sickly bay colt who was sired by Morning star , but he died a few days after birth.
In the spring of 2009 Fettucine gave birth again, to a beautiful Dunskin filly sired by cloud. After the birth of the filly Fettucine was taken or went with the stallion Jackson and a few weeks later her filly died (probably from predation). Fettuccine stayed with Jackson and his harem the whole summer. She was taken in the removal in September 2009. She was unknowingly pregnant at her capture, a Jackson foal and in 2010 she gave birth to her beautiful and very spanish looking dun son….
Below are current photos of Fettucine and her son.
