Filly by The PO and out of Providence


"PJ" is for Pride and Joy. She is absolutely a wonderful little filly. We
have been "on the fence" about selling her, but we only have a small farm

feather drags the ground in the back and reaches almost to the ground on the

have one. She is homozygous, as well. $20,000.00 Please call for more

Parnell's Anois
2006 Gypsy Cob Colt
 
Anois (pronounced "uh-nish") is a fantastic yearling stallion prospect who was imported in utero from Ireland.  Anois, whose name means "Now!" in Gaelic, was born to Parnell's Nuala in May 2006.  His sire is the incomparable palomino Clononeen Mull of Kintyre.  The Mull ( a.k.a., "Romeo"), was recently purchased by Desert Jewel Gypsy Horses, for an undisclosed six-figure sum, making him one of the most valuable stallions ever imported into the USA.  Anois has a smokey black and white pinto coat pattern.  Anois is registered with the Gypsy Cob and Drum Horse Association (# FGI061294S) and the Gypsy Vanner Horse Society (#GV00986F1), and also has a pending registration with the Gypsy Cob Society.  Why spend a minimum of $30,000 and wait for a year to breed his equivalent when you can buy this outstanding stallion prospect by the Mull of Kintyre Now! for only $22,000

Parnell's Aibreann
2006 Gypsy Cob Filly
 
Aibreann (pronounced "Av-reen") is a beautiful piebald yearling filly born in April, 2006.  Abby, as she is known on the farm, was imported from Ireland in utero.  If you want a unique, one-of-a-kind filly with Irish bloodlines, Aibreann is the perfect choice.  She is the only filly outside of Ireland sired by Billy's Teardrop, an outstanding homozygous (tobiano and black)stallion from the Midlands region of Ireland.   She is a halter quality filly who will bring genetics to your breeding program that are not available anywhere else in the United States.  Despite her young age, Abby is already developing a double mane and significant amounts of hair and feather.  She has a lovely feminine head that complements her traditional Irish Cob conformation, and will pass on her refinement to her foals.  Inquisitive and friendly, Abby has the potential to be a great show mare as well as a broodmare.  Abby is registered with the Gypsy Cob and Drum Horse Association (# FGI061293M) and the Gypsy Vanner Horse Society (#00989F1), and also has a pending registration with the Gypsy Cob Society.  This one-of-a-kind Gypsy Cob filly is offered at $19,500.

Parnell's Keelin
2005 Gypsy Cob Filly
 
Keelin, whose name in Gaelic means "beauty that can only be described by poetry", was imported from Ireland with her dam, Parnell's Cahir, in 2005. Last year, in her first time shown, she placed second in a tough halter class of 7 yearling fillies at the Colorado Horse Park Gypsy Show!  As we expect all of our cobs to be functional as well as beautiful, Keelin recently completed 60 days of professional training under saddle with Anthony O'Brien. In addition to her arena work, Keelin has been on 5- to 10-mile trail rides.  Keelin is a great starter mare for someone who wants an imported broodmare prospect who also has a bright performance future under saddle.  Keelin is registered with the Gypsy Cob and Drum Horse Association (#FGI051207M) and the Gypsy Vanner Horse Society (#GV00982F), and also has a pending registration with the Gypsy Cob Society.  Keelin is ready to go now, and can be yours for only $15,500.

Parnell's Lisdoonvarna
2005 Gypsy Cob Filly
 
Lisdoonvarna, or "Lizzy" as she is called on the farm, is a GORGEOUS filly who was imported from Ireland in utero.   Lizzy will be the cornerstone of anyone's breeding program.  Sired by the incredible palomino stallion Clononeen Mull of Kintyre, Lizzy is out of Parnell's Roisin, our most popular broodmare.  She is the finest cob that we have produced to date!  As a yearling, Lizzy won the Breeder's Class the only time she was shown at the Colorado Horse Park Gypsy show, beating adult mares in the class!  In early September, Lizzy walked in her first big parade at the 31st Annual Long's Peak Scottish/Irish Highlands Festival in Estes Park, where she was a real crowd-pleaser. We challenge you to find a filly with more type, pedigree or conformation than Lizzy.  Lizzy is registered with the Gypsy Cob and Drum Horse Association (#FGI051210M) and the Gypsy Vanner Horse Society (GV00987F1), and also has a pending registration with the Gypsy Cob Society.  This elite Gypsy Cob broodmare prospect is available for $30,000.

Parnell's Glendalough
2007 Gypsy Cob Colt 
 
Glendalough (pronounced "Glen-da-lock") is a handsome piebald colt out of the Irish import Parnell's Cahir.  You will have to go a long way to find a colt with more type than "Glenn" – his head is nearly perfect, with large, wide-set expressive blue eyes and a triangular head set on a high, rainbow arch neck.  Glenn is an ideal halter prospect, and with his long legs and athletic build, we envision a bright future in driving and dressage.  It is getting more and more difficult to find stallions with this much type – he is a stunner!  And like his sire, the award-winning Gypsy Vanner stallion Lake Ridge British Sterling, Glenn is homozygous for both the tobiano pattern (TT) and the black factor (EE). Glenn will be registered with the Gypsy Cob and Drum Horse Association and the Gypsy Vanner Horse Society.  This exceptional Gypsy Cob stallion prospect is offered for sale at $18,000.

Parnell's Grainne ni Mhaille
2007 Gypsy Cob Filly
 
Grainne Ni Mhaille (pronounced "Grawn-yuh na molly") is a gorgeous black blagdon filly out of the Irish import Parnell's Nuala.  Grainne, whose name translates as "Grace O'Malley" in English, was named for a famous Irish pirate captain and rebel who lived in the 16th Century.  Our Grace is the first blagdon filly sired by the incomparable Rock Ranch Nelson, a First Premium Classic Vanner stallion.  Grace exemplifies the traditional Cob body type with her heavy bone, short back, and HUGE amounts of feather, mane and tail. Grace lives up to her namesake – she's bold, inquisitive and fearless, yet has a loving and gentle nature.  If you are looking to breed the true, traditional Gypsy cob, then Grace should be a part of your breeding program.  Grace leads and trailers well, having joined her dam at the 31st Annual Long's Peak Scottish/Irish Highlands Festival in Estes Park this past September, where she was a huge hit with the crowds.  Grace is homozygous for the black factor (EE), so she will never bear red-based foals, regardless of the color genes of the sire.  Grace will be registered with the Gypsy Cob and Drum Horse Association and the Gypsy Vanner Horse Society.  This gorgeous black blagdon filly is available for $15,000.

Friesdale Farms Charade

Charade is our June 2007 Friesdale.  Her Sire is a stunning 16 hand Friesian stallion.  Her Dam is a gorgeous 16.2 hand Clydesdale.

Charade is so sweet it's incredible.  She looks like a pure bred Friesian in Bay.  She has the feathering, the curly thick hair and the movement of a pure Friesian. We have trimmed her feet with ease, used clippers on her while she's loose, bathed her and tie her daily for feedings...she takes everything with ease, she has never fought us on anything.  Charade will be a horse of a lifetime.  She is one that you want to pass that personality and those looks along.  She will grow up to be a nice blood bay with black legs, mane and tail...stunning combination.  She moves very light on her feet, as if she's floating. 

Price: $5000

SR Keaton's Charm (aka Seth)

2006 Gypsy Cob Colt

Registration Number: FGI061233S
Homozygous for Black.
Seth was Born Sept. 6, 2006 and is going to be a massive boy!
Seth is a very heavy boned colt, with good feather, and marked extremely well with 50/50 black and white and the desirable black tail. Seth would be an excellent stallion prospect for those looking for a larger colt (expected to be 15.2 + hands). Seth has a very mellow temperament and loves people and people love Seth.  Seth's sire is the famous Keaton and there are very few Keaton foals in the US at this time. “Keaton” is out of “Sid’s Good Stallion” and “Sid’s Checkers Mare”. And “Sid’s Good Stallion” is by “The dock Tailed Horse” and out of a daughter of The Lob. Seth has the refined head and excellent conformation just like his sire and he has the fluid and smooth movement just like his dam.
What a perfect complement he would make in anyone's herd or breeding program. Seth would also be a good show stallion or gelding for those wanting an athletic forward moving colt for any event. Seth has been socialized a great deal with adults and kids, and loves attention and affection. Seth is not a pushy colt, he is very respectful and has the desire to please. Seth has been worked with from the day he was born, and knows all the basics including easy to catch and halter, leads, ties, loads, feet handling, and more. He is up to date on everything.

2006 Gypsy Cob Colt

 

Gorgeous colt out of 2 Clononeen Farm horses. Sire is the glorious palomino Clononeen Mull of Kintyre (Romeo). Dam is Bandera Clononeen Siobhan, a striking blue and white mare with bright blue eyes.

Heart of Gold

2006 Gypsy Cob Filly

 

Dilute Alert! Even though this filly looks dark brown or black and white, she actually carries a cream gene! And, on top of that, she has a lovely pint pot head, heavy feather, and a leg in each corner. This is a very pretty, feminine filly who has all the characteristics you expect to see in a good Gypsy Cob plus a dilute gene (1 cream gene, 1 black and & 1 red gene) so, depending on the stallion she's bred to, she could produce buckskins, palominos, cremellos or perlinos. She is also completely unrelated to other dilute horses now in the States.  This is one of the quietest, sweetest fillies you will ever meet.
