Deltaire Arabian's Broodmare Band
Skip the description
.D.eltaire Arabians retires only the finest mares to the broodmare barn. Our mares have either had previous lives as competitve showhorses, or they consistantly produce award winning foals that become great.
.T.he Deltaire Arabian's Mare barn is a large, well made oak building. The barn is like two barns in one, with one 'mini barn' having ten stalls, of course including two washracks at one end of the barn. The left asile has six stalls, and then the washrack at the end. The right asile contains two stalls, then in the space of two stalls it is the feed room, enlargened to connect and take care of all the feeding needs of the two 'barns' it connects. Then it goes on to have two more stalls, then the last wash rack. Each stall in the 'mare' part of the barn is gorgeous. Each door is double, so that the top can be opened. The part that is not the door has bars so the mare can have views outside. We do not allow mares to interact, so the walls between the two stalls actually have concrete, then the wood on each side to ensure the two do not come in contact. In the back of each stall there is a barred window, to allow the mare to see outside during her times inside, but we can close and lock it for bad weather, or times of theft or horse damage. Each stall has much bedding to ensure the comfort of each mare, and the feed pan is in the corner, secured with wood around it as is the automatic waterer to ensure they do not harm themselves. Every week we remove the feeder, turn off the waterer and scrub out the whole stall and remove the old bedding, replacing it with new. The outer wall of each stall has blanket racks, for a cooler, winter blanket, and a 'sleeper' for each stallion. The upper door has a rack for the nylon halter we provide each mare with, along with the cotton/polyester leadrope. The bottom door has a brass nameplate, and instructions incase someone with good knowledge of the mare is not around. Also in front of the stall, right below the blanket racks we have a small tack trunk that holds one pair of leg wraps, two pairs of shipping boots, head guards, and tail wraps for each mare. The other 'barn' is much like the mare barn, yet the only difference is that the stalls are 12x12 instead of the 24x12 mare stalls and they are for the young weanlings, just being weaned from their dams.
.A.s you can probably tell, we have means to prepare our mares to go to other farms, for breeding, since we do not annually breed to a stallion at Deltaire Arabians. Our mares frequently are leaving and coming back and forth between being bred and coming back to have their foals.
.W.ithout further ado, I introduce you to Deltaire Arabian's Broodmares!:
