Grullo and Blue Roan Quarter Horses

Daltons Queen Chic


1996 black granddaughter of Peponita
, shortly after we bought her


Chic being brushed with no halter or leadrope while eating (2008).
She loves a good brushing, and is no longer afraid of people.
She is, however, hard to catch without grain.

Offered for Sale!

We are offering Chic for sale because we feel she would be best placed where she would be live covered (we want to only collect and AI our mares). In 2008, we did put her with a stallion to pasture breed, but we don't want to do that in the future. She would probably be fine to AI, but since I do it myself and without anyone to help, I prefer to not AI Chic.

bulletAQHA Granddaughter of Peponita, NCHA Hall of Fame and World Champion cutting horse.
bullet12 out of the 14 horses on her papers earned points and/or won money!
bulletChic HAS been DNA tested and verified by AQHA's testing lab.
bulletBefore we bought her, Chic was used to raise Paints. Click here to see her APHA offspring records. She has also had at least one black and white APHA foal after this report (2004).
bulletHalter broke and loads in a trailer easily, but has mainly not been handled much in her life. Likes to be petted, but was scared of people unless they moved slowly and won her trust when we bought her.  Now, she always wears a sweet expression (I swear...a different mare than when she came!) but is still hard to catch without feed. 
bulletWe leave a halter on her, and can catch her with a bowl/dish of grain.  I can rub all over her head and face, and brush her whole body.  I've never picked up her feet or brushed her tail, but she would probably accept it if I went slowly. 
bulletWith our small children, I just have not been able to mess with her as much as I'd have liked to have. Stands tied, has had a leg hosed that had a cut.  Smart mare who just needed a chance to prove she was a good one.
bulletChic has never pulled back when we've tied her, so she can be live covered when tied.  We've also pasture bred her.

Scar on right front heel (see photos) and a scar on a forearm that we just noticed after she shed off in 2004.

This mare is a nice combination of speed and cow breeding, and she shows it!  It is a darned shame that she was never broke and used, because she is incredibly athletic.

Chic has done an amazing amount of growth in trusting humans in the last couple years. I can climb over the fence right next to her while she eats and brush/pet her without a halter/leadrope on. I've never tried to pick up her hooves. Last year, I made my vet give her a tranquilizer before he ultrasounded, because I'm just afraid she might suddenly get scared and her flight mechanism might get into gear. She likes to be brushed, but I just don't think she's 100% confident with people yet.

bullet

Note:  Chic gets VERY thin around foaling time and during nursing.  We don't know why, and haven't tested her blood to see if there are any irregularities. It could be an inability to digest protein or soybean meal or it could just be that she just gives everything she has to her foal during nursing.

UPDATE:  In 2008, we gave Chic only a grass/alfalfa mix hay and straight OATS (no corn or bean meal) prior to and after foaling. She has maintained her weight much better than in years past, so we may have found the problem.


Hours after foaling in 2008

Chic is chipper, happy, energetic, and just acts like she feels wonderful!  She was on an alfalfa/grass mix hay and no grain in the winter, and stays  fat and healthy looking all winter.  The rest of the year, she is on a plain grass pasture or mostly grass hay. It's just when we begin feeding
