Enyalien Farm Miniature Horses

Hello, and welcome to my blog! My name is Tina, and I have been raising these beautiful little horses since 1994. Life changed drastically for me in 2009, and to go along with the changes I renamed my farm to something meaningful to me (Enyalien means "In Order to Recall" in Tolkien's Elven language of Quenya), am working with a dear friend on redoing my website, and...am starting a blog. If you'd like to keep up with my thoughts or my herd, here is the place to do so. I will post updates, information, foaling chronicles, training bits, showing bits as I get back into the ring, fun stuff, etc. Enjoy!

Picture Day!

Today, I think I will share some pictures taken this past year, as I'm still waiting on my excellent webmaster to get them on the website *grins in Seii's general direction* (don't worry, he's one of my best friends...he's used to being ribbed)

So, that pretty little filly in my A Worlds ad...is now all grown up and glorious. Jangles is her sire, and this is the kind of foal he is consistently putting on the ground. Mom is preggers with a 3rd full sibling now. Little brother is being loved on by some kids, but sold application in hand and I don't think they've sent it in yet. I am hoping for another full sister!

These pictures were straight out of the pasture, a quick bath, time to dry and get brushed, put a show halter on and hand her over to my little helpers, who were doing this for the first time. She is not being set up or anything. This is Princess in the raw...aka Enyalien Gentle Spirit.









Princess is 75% Winks bred, 25%  of that is Winks Showdeo Kid, and carries that pedigree in the AMHA-she didn't have to be hardshipped in and lose it on the papers! She has matured at 32.5", and was exposed for her first foal in '12. She is 18.75% Winks Jangles, and a granddaughter of Winks Revelation, Winks Tabitha 1, and Winks Spirit. Her remaining 25% is Boone's blood. 

I am more pleased with this mare AS a mare, and I was pleased when she was a filly! She was my first live foal out of Jangles (unfortunately I lost an older half sister silver dapple filly due to dystocia earlier that year), and the two of them gave me an inkling as to what he could do....which he has continued to live up to!
