Please be
patient. The pedigrees take a few seconds to load due to the amount of
information
on
them but they are definitely worth a look!
Royal Apache Tears
aka
"Monty"
(APHA # 620,975)
Monty is a 2001 model with a pretty
fancy chassis! This eye-catching double homozygous black tobiano stallion stands
over 16.1HH. He has a beautiful head, great bone and
conformation and that wonderful willing disposition that we all wish our horses
had. Both his sire, Chics Bandit and his dam, Poco Royal Lace, have that
wonderful gentle nature and they have certainly passed it on to Monty. He is
very easy to work with.
When we started, our goal was to
breed our own black tobianos and toveros from non-black (bays and browns) using
Poco Bueno and working cowhorse bloodlines. We are very happy that we have
achieved that and have been so blessed with Monty. We are very proud of the
results - he sires good big, strong foals with lots of color!
Monty has been tested by Animal
Genetics and is double homozygous. That means he is homozygous for the tobiano
gene as well as the black color. He will never produce a red foal regardless of
the color of the dam. The foals will all be black based - black, brown, bay. If
bred to palominos, roans, duns or greys, the foals could be also buckskins, blue
roans, grullos and greys.
Monty's has a very good pedigree. He
boasts 6 crosses to King, 4x to Poco Bueno, 2x to Three Bars and 5x to Leo, in
addition to Royal King, Top Deck, Old Tom Cat, Steel Bars, Good, Eternal Sun,
Leolita, Hard Twist and Cowboy P-12.
