Syndi came to the ranch in Nov. of 2002, at 16 months of age. A pretty feminine mare with a pedigree rich with Polish bloodlines. She is a friendly, peppy brood mare with classy dish face and large eyes, a right front boot and faint star. SYNDI loads well into a trailer, clips, stands well for hoof trims, not a halter puller when tied. She is also flat strap stake out broke. Small scar on right side, corner of mouth is her only blemish. SYNDI is an attentive mother and good milker. Very good withers, not mutton. Good legs, nice shoulder and neck set, good hooves. Vaccinated for 2008 on Rabies, West Nile, E/W Sleeping sickness, and Tetanus.

Her sire is a handsome fellow, very typey, with a good nature. He was a Yearling Sweepstakes Futurity Champion, a class A Champion, a Regional Top Ten Halter Horse, and more recently a Most Classic Champion.

Syndi's dam is a good natured horse reported gentle enough for beginner kids to ride, plus a good broodmare. We are looking forward to having Syndi raise an occasional foal for us. We have not yet decided to have her broke to ride, so she has been a brood mare for us. She has a very friendly personality, but can get a little nervous under pressure. We have done some minor ground training on her including stake out training. She has been wintered with bulls and cows and is familar with ranch barb wire fencing for her summer pasture.

Syndi has several Polish lines including some lines to *Witez II / Ofir. Syndi is a good caring mother and milker. She has a nice bay 2008 filly at side by a linebred "Ofir" pure Polish homozygous black stallion owned by Witez Black Arabians, EOPOLUS. EOPOLUS is Sweepstakes Nominated and by +OPUS ONE. Click Here to see her fancy 2007 filly out of the same stallion, which we also offer for sale.

Syndi is vaccinated for 2008 for rabies, tentaus, E-W sleeping sickness, and West Nile.

Syndi is for sale as two-in-one package, with her dark bay filly foaled on 04-22-08 at side, name TBA Ofir Cinder (pending). She maybe a black/bay like her dam. See their pictures above/below from 7-13-08. $5,000 or make an offer on the pair. Owner will provide signed transfer of ownership upon payment clearing bank. Buyer to pay for all transportation costs. E-mail if you would like more information, or a price quote if purchased individually.

TBA Barbie

Barbie was delivered to the ranch by her breeder, as a pretty little weanling. She is registered with a color breed registry, the Palomino Horse Assoc. Even now at her age, she still has her beautiful dapples. She is sired by a registered Spanish Mustang and could have been registered as a half Spanish Mustang. Out of a registered IAHA 7/8 Arabian-1/8 Quarter Horse palomino mare. She has a strong female line of palominos on her dam side. She has one line to *Witez II / Ofir.

Barbie was broke to ride as a three year old, and obviously was going to make a nice non-spooky sensible saddle horse. One day our herd bulls got into a disagreement and pushed each other out of the corral, leaving a big hole. Barbie and another gelding we use to have, went through and made bee-line to our feed lot grain wagon. Of course helping themselves to the goodies until they could barely swallow. So, when discovered, a quick trip to the Vet. for mineral oil and shots. The new young Vet. that treated them, goofed up and got a little mineral oil in Barbie's lungs. Well, she didn't founder, but the chronic lung problems as result of the mineral oil treatment ruined her lungs. She now has shortness of breath, and a chronic cough. So, with the permanent lung damage caused by the mineral oil, we were forced to change her career from saddle pony to broodmare.

We have enjoyed some very nice foals from her so far. The first two were sired by Witez Black Arabians deceased herd sire, El Nigadin. A palomino filly was first, and a black colt the following year. The palomino filly was sold to Witez Black Arabians as a yearling, and the black colt was sadly lost to colic before a year of age. Barbie had 2003, 2004, and 2006 foals sired by a son of El Nigadin: Nickoli Witez BA, a typey red chestnut, owned by the Trauger family. All three were chestnut colts. Barbie's 2007 solid dark color (maybe black or dark buckskin) colt, TBA Ofir Aandi, is by a linebred "Ofir" pure Polish homozygous black stallion, EOPOLUS, owned by Witez Black Arabians. Aandi has been sold. We gave Barbie a 1 year rest, so did not breed her for a 2008 foal, but we have bred her to EOPOLUS for a 2009 foal.

E-mail if you are interested in her 2006 gelding below, you can also see pics of her 2004 gelding Spark, who we are retaining for ranch horse use.

Our Riding Horses

Love Rage "Snip"

Snip was purchased as a two year old from friends after a brief but successful halter career. Very good natured, and a willing worker, he quickly became a favorite cow horse with his quiet ways and patience while working cattle. The last 20+ years he has been a great companion for both work or play. Whether sorting stock in the corral, moving stock to pasture, doing drill team maneuvers, loading his saddle down with duffle bags to carry, or simply carrying Old Glory in a parade, Snip could handle the job. Good sound legs that have done lots of work without leg wraps most of the time and still no splints nor arthritis. Just a Blessing to have, and a tribute to his good breed, breeder and bloodlines.

Snip has been battling Melanoma (skin cancer) since 15 years of age, a common affliction of the grey color Arabians. As an aged gelding, he still holds his own in full Arabian style, whether at work or at play. He has a lot of Crabett breeding, including some Polish breeding and a line to *Witez II / Ofir.

Magnum Witez BA

Magnum was purchased from his past owners in WA, through his breeder in ND. He came here as a weanling and went to a professional Parilli style trainer the summer of 2002 for the saddle. By 2003 he had a good start on him for a saddle horse with 2 1/2 months with the trainer plus many rides here on the ranch, but still needs more miles and riding. I have done a lot of despook ground training on him, which has helped him a lot. Unfortunately since then, I haven't been able to advance his experiences enough, due to an injury I received from a cow charge, health problems with asthma, and an other serious injury from a bad spill off another horse in 2007. However Magnum did spend July and part of Aug. 2007, being rode daily by a ND rancher/trainer, when I couldn't ride him. So, his training-experiences were not at a stand still.

Magnum is normally easy to catch and friendly, having a good people loving nature. He is stake out broke, which will come in handy when on trails rides and camping out. Good looking stout muscled fellow, with nice legs, short strong back, and nice depth of rib. He has extremely beautiful tail carriage. He has the good Arabian stamina that an endurance horse needs. He just needs some more riding experiences on him.

His pedigree is very good with a few lines to *Witez II / Ofir. Offering him for sale at $5,000.00. Will consider selling a custom built 17" seat roper saddle with him. Magnum has an extra wide shoulder blade like many Arabians have at wither top and short back, this saddle tree was custom cut to have an extra width in throat of gullet and shorter bar length for his back.

TBA Flint

Flint has nice soft eyes, and long legs. He has an easy going disposition that we just love to work with. We have done a lot of fun ground obstacle work and sacking out on him, prior to his going to a trainer. He seemed to always enjoy the new things he's learned.

He is stake out broke, loads in a trailer well, leads calmly over blue poly-tarp and other types of more natural trail obstacles. Normally cautious without being overly spooky. He has a willing, easy going nature and does not act herd bound, seems just as happy and content with the human he is with.

Flint is mostly Egyptian and Russian breeding with some Polish breeding, including one line to *Witez II. / Ofir. He has a lot of Pritzlaff Ranch Egyptian breeding. The Pritzlaff bred horses are known for their intelligence and extra special people personalities. Pritzlaff horses love being with people and their intelligence makes them curious and looking forward to what happens next. The Pritzlaff horses often make good cattle horses, as they were bred for that. Flint has the renown Pritzlaff personality.

Flint is offered for sale for half the price he should be offered for, due to his scarred hoof, he will probably require shoes on the front if rode a lot on rocky ground. He also does not do well on sweet feeds, maybe glucose intolerant??? He does very well on natural hay, forage, and grains.

Flint is a loveable fellow who loves attention, could make a nice horse for girl or lady, his buyer should enjoy his friendly curious personality. Price: Make an offer, we may consider it! He got to tall to get on with my bad knees, not easy for me to get back on him out at pastures after opening gates, I'll have to stick to shorter horses.

TBA SPARK OF WITEZ

Spark is a beauty with his nice muscling, straight legs, and pretty slightly dished face. He has a upside down teardrop shaped star on his forehead, a tiny little strip, a small snip, and a hind partial pastern for white markings.

Spark is registered as a half Arabian, but in reality he is 23/32 Arabian, 1/4 Spanish Mustang, and 1/32 Quarter Horse. He has about 5 lines to *Witez II. He was started under saddle in 2007, and is stake out broke. We are looking forward to using him as one of our main ranch riding horses.

Our Young Unbroken Horses

	TBA WITEZ DANIE Young Unbroken Breed: Half Arabian/Spanish Mustang Color: Chestnut Sex: Gelding Registration No.: HAHA 1A361434 Foaling Date: May 5, 2006 Height: Should mature around 14.3-15hh Breeder: Deutscher Sire: Nickohli Witez BA Dam: TBA Barbie Pedigree: Click here More Pictures/Info: Click here
Danie is a full brother to Spark. He has nice muscling, decent legs, and pretty slightly dished face. He has a diamond shaped star on his forehead, also white left rear pastern for white markings. Danie is registered as a half Arabian, but in reality he is 23/32 Arabian, 1/4 Spanish Mustang, and 1/32 Quarter Horse. He has about 5 lines to *Witez II. He is halter broke, and has had foal imprint training, and his hooves have been trimmed regularly. Since mid-August 2006 through June 2007, Danie was caught and haltered daily, and tied to a hitch rail at feeding time. He was also caught, haltered, and tied daily during the winter. He has been corralled with cows for a few days and was corraled part of the winter with our cleanup bulls, so has become acquainted with being with cattle. He is stake out broke and has been staked out all day 4 to 5 times each week in spring. For Sale, asking $800.00, will consider offers to good homes. More Pictures/Info: Click here. E-mail if you have questions about Danie.

TBA Ofir Lucy

Lucy is a looker with her feminine face, large eyes, balanced conformation, and a peppy nature. She has a left hind partial coronet for white markings. With her weanling winter coat, she had turned into a black/bay like her dam. But this spring shedded to a dark bay. Perhaps she will turn black/bay with age.

Lucy is predominately Polish breeding, with her sire being pure Polish line-bred to Ofir, and her dam having several Polish lines. She had foal imprint training, halter broke and started her stake out training (we do not consider well-broke for stake out yet). She is being caught, haltered, and tied daily for feeding. We are doing some despook training with her, and laying blankets on her back. She has also been corraled at times with cattle. She does have speed, maybe could make a gaming horse.

Price: $2,000 or make an offer, includes sign transfer on registration paper. Pics shown are from July 2008.
