For a limited time, I am putting my foundation stallion, ISF1 Black Ops, up for public stud. He is a BBTS and homozygous for KP, S+ and Sb2. Additionally, I will guarantee your foal(s) intact - post below with a link to your altered foal and your ID#. I will send replacement straws at pull cost for as long as it takes to get an intact foal. All of his breeding rules must be followed to qualify. If you do not wish to use live cover, I will also offer this through straw sales (first one for same cost as his LC fee, with replacements sent at pulling cost). If you want to do a straw instead just post with your ID# and I'll send it (make sure to mention it's your first try).

On top of this, everyone who breeds to him will be entered into a raffle for a guaranteed intact Ice 2 straw from my Ice 2 stallion, ISF1 WinterIsComing. He is also homozygous KP. I will randomize names and 25% of entrants will win. (eg. 8 entrants would produce 2 winners - I will round up on winners if the percentage number is not even.) All of his rules absolutely must be followed, including keeping his line in-house per the rules on his page.

This offer will end Friday, July 18th at Noon Pacific Time. The Ice 2 drawing will take place after that. This has also been posted on the Facebook group.

Oh the dilemma you cause. *goes to look at what eggs she has collected* I'll give it a try, first try straw please as all my live covers are pretty much gone. Barn ID is 20915. I'm just heading out so I'll get back to you with what I get. Thank you!

Raina · Jul 16, 2014 12:04 PM

Haha! Straw sent! Good luck!

SandyCreekAcres · Jul 16, 2014 12:18 PM

I'll take you up on the offer as well. I do have the perfect mate for him, open.

(That's for my benefit, so that I will remember my plan. :D)

Raina · Jul 16, 2014 1:10 PM

I'm guessing you'd like a straw then? :) If so, I'm sending it now.

JDiamondW · Jul 16, 2014 2:14 PM

http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2808499

First try, will need another straw. Will yum him soon as you've verified seeing him.

Raina · Jul 16, 2014 2:23 PM

Aww so pretty too. Will send another now. ;)

SandyCreekAcres · Jul 16, 2014 3:04 PM

Yes, indeed, that was a subtle request for a straw. Thanks.

Sadly, Lucas says he's not sire potential. Sigh.

http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2808543

I'll yum him after you're seen him.

I would like another straw to try again.

KerredansCorral · Jul 16, 2014 3:06 PM

Well, I tried L/C and he got gelded by Charlie. So I'd like to get a straw and try with another mare. I'll yum him when I get it, as I don't show, so there is no need to keep him.

http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2808545

Raina · Jul 16, 2014 3:12 PM

Sending to both of you now! :)

SandyCreekAcres · Jul 16, 2014 3:22 PM

Sigh. Inconsistent.

http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2808570

Is roan an exception in the Kit mutation for KP?

May I have another straw, please.

KerredansCorral · Jul 16, 2014 3:25 PM

Thanks! Picked mine up, and tried again. This one passed, but only papered B, so I gelded him, per your instructions on sires page.

http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2808576

Raina · Jul 16, 2014 3:42 PM

Sending both now.

KP will show up with any two Kit mutations (including Roan), but the horse must be homozygous KP for it to show. So needs two KP and two Kit mutations.

KerredansCorral · Jul 16, 2014 3:45 PM

Oh, I'm not worried about getting a homozygous KP, as I don't have any foundation mares that have it. I do have some lined mares that are hetero for it, so looking for new blood, and hoping for a stud, but I'll take a mare too. Thanks for the try. Going to try again.

SandyCreekAcres · Jul 16, 2014 3:45 PM

Thank you for the explanation and the additional straw. I'd forgotten about needing two KP alleles for some reason. I blame it on the fact that there is no longer enough pigment in my hair to keep all my thoughts in my head.

:D

Raina · Jul 16, 2014 3:45 PM

Lol I was replying to SandyCreek's question. :) Sorry about not being clear who I was talking to.

KerredansCorral · Jul 16, 2014 3:52 PM

Drat! Passed again, but also papered B, and he was nice. Sigh. Need to try again, and see what I have for decent mare.

http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2808609

SandyCreekAcres · Jul 16, 2014 3:53 PM

Well, the colt fairy has been riding along with the straws very steadily, but she's a bit weak on the quality side this evening. This one made it all the way to papering and then turned up B.

http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2808607

I'll try again, if I may, please and thank you.

Raina · Jul 16, 2014 3:56 PM

Both sent. :)

KerredansCorral · Jul 16, 2014 3:58 PM

Thanks again! LOL, I didn't see SCA's post at that time. Lets hope for luck!

SandyCreekAcres · Jul 16, 2014 4:02 PM

Thanks.

http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2808623

He's gorgeous. I love the Sb2 along with his roaning. Alas, Charlie said, "No way."

I'll try again, please.

Raina · Jul 16, 2014 4:04 PM

That colt fairy needs to back away from the barns! Lol.

KerredansCorral · Jul 16, 2014 4:04 PM

Ah, well, another that passed, then papered B. He's got such a pretty face too. Ok, will need another straw. Thanks for letting us have this opportunity!

http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2808628

Raina · Jul 16, 2014 4:05 PM

No problem! Sent you both replacement straws. I'm hoping for pretty, high PT'd, consistent FILLIES! :D

KerredansCorral · Jul 16, 2014 4:14 PM

LOL, your wish came true! I got a nice filly this time, that passed test, and has a 10.8 pt score! Thank you very much! :D

http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2808637

Raina · Jul 16, 2014 4:15 PM

No problem! Good luck with her!

SandyCreekAcres · Jul 16, 2014 4:16 PM

Well, she's pretty (although without white factor), has a fair PT, and is consistent. BUT she didn't pass SMA.
http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2808639

My family hasn't come home yet this evening, so I guess I have the time to try again.

I really appreciate your offer and your patience.

Raina · Jul 16, 2014 4:20 PM

I am happy to stick with you as long as it takes! :) I'll send another now.

SandyCreekAcres · Jul 16, 2014 4:33 PM

Sigh. The colt fairy's back again, with a sack of coal. He's black and gorgeous, and got to papering. :(( C!!

http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2808663

I've got time to try again.

Raina · Jul 16, 2014 6:42 PM

So sorry, I had to make dinner and eat it lol. I'm sending another now.

LakeOndowaFarm · Jul 16, 2014 7:46 PM

After some debating with myself, I decided that I wanted in on this too. Thank you very much for the opportunity to get a guaranteed foal from such a lovely stallion (and for the raffle for one from your ice boy as well).

Charlie gelded my first try (LC):
http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2808820
May I please have a straw to try again?

Raina · Jul 16, 2014 9:00 PM

I will send another now! :)

LakeOndowaFarm · Jul 17, 2014 3:24 AM

My second try also produced a stunningly lovely gelding, alas. May I please have another straw?
http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2809100

Silhouette Farm · Jul 17, 2014 9:31 AM

I would love to breed to him, but I mass collected eggs from my only Blue papered foundation mare. http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2000575

Would it be possible to buy a straw for his live cover price?

Thanks!

Raina · Jul 17, 2014 10:39 AM

Yes, straw sales are fine. They will come with the same guarantee. Sending yours now and Lake Ondowa, your replacement. :)

LakeOndowaFarm · Jul 17, 2014 2:20 PM

I used this straw with another Poinsettia egg and got a spayed filly this time. Sigh. Some days I have to remind myself that SMA really is my friend, even when it spays my pretties. Next try please.
http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2809441

Raina · Jul 17, 2014 2:41 PM

:( I just tried 15+ times on a guaranteed straw. I feel your pain! Sending another now.

Silhouette Farm · Jul 17, 2014 2:51 PM

Thanks!

Well, first try: http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2809487 so, may I have another straw?

Raina · Jul 17, 2014 2:59 PM

Sent!

LakeOndowaFarm · Jul 17, 2014 3:02 PM

WOO HOO success! I used an egg from one of my boosted exceptional mares and got an absolutely lovely intact filly! Thank you so much!

http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2809489

Silhouette Farm · Jul 17, 2014 3:12 PM

Second try...another gelding... http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2809491

I would love a filly, but the filly fairy has been hiding from me this year, LOL

Raina · Jul 17, 2014 3:13 PM

Wow! She's nice! Look at that PT! Congrats.

Raina · Jul 17, 2014 3:28 PM

Sent you another Silhouette!

SandyCreekAcres · Jul 17, 2014 3:44 PM

I just double checked. The last straw you sent me seems to have gone astray somehow. At any rate, the last of the Black Ops foals is the last one I reported on above.
http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2808663

I see that I need to catch up with yumming the non-intact foals, too. I'll get that done after feeding supper to my family.

Silhouette Farm · Jul 17, 2014 3:48 PM

Gah! Another gelding! Sheesh...that colt fairy needs to take a nap!

http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2809521

Raina · Jul 17, 2014 4:05 PM

Both of you should have new straws!

Silhouette Farm · Jul 17, 2014 5:37 PM

Thank you!

Silhouette Farm · Jul 17, 2014 5:41 PM

http://www.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=2809574 another gelding. I might wait to use my next straw on another mare(I had forgotten about her...DOH!), but I have to wait to pull another egg.

Would that be OK? I should have it in 4 days.

SandyCreekAcres · Jul 17, 2014 5:48 PM

Well, this time wasn't the charm. I love the little bit of sabino markings on his pasterns, but he's only a B. Sigh.

I will try one more time. I've boosted an Exceptional Producer mare. Maybe this will do the trick.

Raina · Jul 17, 2014 6:53 PM

That's fine Silhouette. :)

Sent you both new straws

JDiamondW · Jul 17, 2014 9:42 PM

Just realized I can get another straw and use it once the foundation girl I want to do a egg pull from comes on the list, don't have to use it soon as I get it. Ok I'm a little slow. *grin* Could I get another straw to #20915? First try.
