About Weidebloem van den IJssel
Weidebloem (full registered name Weidebloem van den IJssel) is our 2007 Feike 395 filly and the second foal out of our mare Sanne B. She is a Feike 395 x Anne 340 sport x Lammert 260 from stam 111 and will continue the mare line from childhood; Anneke rode Sanne's dam and grand dam as a teenager in The Netherlands. Originally we bred Sanne with frozen semen from Onne 376 but it was not meant to be (just not a frozen candidate probably) and Feike was a solid second choice. Not a bad choice, because Weidebloem is a beauty; well put together, statuesque, energetic, very personable, and eye catching, not to mention stout and tall for her age; already almost 14 hands at 10 months old. She received a 2nd premie at her 2007 fall KFPS inspection. Her name means meadow flower and that is exactly what she reminded us of when she was born in Texas, the Wild Flower State on May 3, 2007, and also why we chose the background picture; Dandelions in a typical Dutch landscape.

Future Plans
Weidebloem will continue the line. She is our pet, p.r., and another future lesson and event horse. First we have a few years of growing up to enjoy. Depending on what she looks like we may present her for a premie this fall at the 2008 KFPS/FHANA Texas inspection. Just like Remco she has been registered with USEF for hopefully some shows in the future. Thank you for coming to see her at her 2007 KFPS inspection at Stargate Sporthorses in Argyle TX: 2nd premie! The pictures are posted below. Back to contents.
 
 
Pictures
We will regularly post new pictures on this page so you can see Weidebloem grow and in different situations. The background picture is a Dutch scene of a typical pasture "fenced off" by a stream with Dandelions blooming in the grass. That is what we think of for meadow flower, which is the English translation of Weidebloem and of course Texas, her home state, is known for its wild flowers. Back to contents.

October 7, 2007: 5 months old and weaning time! She went out with Remco and not happy to be separated from mom. Update late October: she's back out with mom but no longer nursing. Everyone is happy and together in my little herd of three. Weidebloem thinks she's just as big as her mom and brother!

 

 

2007 KFPS/FHANA inspection: 2nd premie! She behaved like a goofball but some spunk will be good later on. Looking at the other Feike offspring and her I think she will get to be tall and big. Pictures by Gloria McDonald of Wild Mane Photos.

Feike 395
Feike 395 is a Feitse 293 pref x Naen 264 x Ritske 202 pref from stam 128. He was born in 1993 in The Netherlands and is located at Royal Carousel Friesians in West Jordan, Utah. This impressive stallion stands at 1.70m/16.3 hands and is shown successfully in Grand Prix dressage. He was selected for the stallion testing in The Netherlands but failed the semen testing at the time. After his move to the U.S. his semen improved through a strict nutritional regimen and in 2001 Feike received KFPS breeding privileges for North America. He is the last stallion to be approved under the old approval regulations in North America. He has not yet completed his testing on offspring.
