Here is the latest farm news:
January 2011 Wishing You …a Happy and Prosperous 2011 Year! Marg and I have had a great time raising, riding and delivering our Morgans across Canada and athe the United States. One day we hope to visit our stallion in Australia and our mare in Switzerland.
Penny had been in Grande Prairie about three months for training. We drove up to bring her home. Having space in the trailer, Dan came for a ride. when the two saw each other there was this unexpected greeting. Photo by Marg Armfelt - owner at time of photo - Baptiste Lake Morgans.
Baptist Centennial Priz born May 2005 is now owned by Elizabeth Robb of Elnoresh Morgans. We delivered Penny to Liz in December of 2009. Thank you Liz for purchasing Penny, we enjoyed our midnight visit! Baptiste Dapper Thorpe Born July 2005 is now owned by Nicole Smith. Thank you Nicole for your recent Purchase of Dan.
June 2010 Both of our stallions are away from home at this time. Renegade Commando is away becoming a well mannered Western style riding Morgan. He is due home in two or three weeks. Baptiste Captain Navy is away adding some color to a few Morgan mares near Swift Current Saskatchewan. He will be home mid-August, ready for some Baptiste breeding and well as some outside ones. If you want guaranteed color in your 2011 foals, give us a call. Navy is homozygous for the crème and the agouti genes. He can not sire a black foal. With a genetically black mare, the foal color would be 66% buckskin or 33% palomino. Our Mitzie that went to Europe in 2008 has arrived in Switzerland and lives very near her owner. Ruby born in 2009 (Renegade Commando X Baptiste Mitzie GoldHill) is now a golden palomino with white mane and tail. Mitzie has a new nick name. She is Baptimi to her Swiss fans.
The only way to tell one color from another with the light palominos is by eye color. Palominos have brown eyes and cremellos have blue.

February, 2010: We have completed our first sale of 2010. We wanted a special family home for our long time mare Kodiak Gold Model Walker. We found exactly the special home we wanted for Goldie - A young couple with three children; 6 years, 4 years and under one. There was no time to saddle up - the boys wanted a first ride ASP - so it was a bare back ride. The oldest boy wants to be known as Roy as in Roy Rogers - a palomino Morgan is the perfect horse in his world. We have more Morgans for sale in a variety of Colors all with exceptional conformation and exceptional personalities. We Deliver. |

Thank you to the Big Sky Morgan Horse Association. In their new directory, they placed a photo of a group of our palomino and cremello foals. The ladies in the photo had lots of fun playing with the foals.
