Wesco Farms TC Mia Monchhichi
"Mia"
2019 AMHA & AMHR DNA/PQ tested
* Negative for the four ACAN dwarf mutations via inheritance
31" Greying Black filly
Sire: WCR Top Cop x Dam: Wesco Farms Ozs Daedra
Mia is a wonderful cross between our Fallen Ash Scouts Oscar daughter, Daedra, and WCR Top Cop.
She's a spunky little spitfire with lots of personality and pretty movement. She has excellent conformation, straight legs and a pretty head - that is very hard to take good photos of. 90% of my black black horses, like Mia, sadly look like black blobs!
Mia's parents are both N/N (Negative) for the four known ACAN Dwarf genes (D1, D2, D3, D4). She inherits their status and cannot pass those mutations to her foals.
She is solid black, BUT does show some greying signs
Our Breeding Philosophy
Wesco Farms has an unconventional breeding philosophy, in that we like a short foaling season (April foals ideally for our climate), and have chosen to NOT breed mares every year.
Our preference, is to put stallions to mares around May 1 and take them out May 31st for those April foals. Our stallions get a brief window - maybe one-two heat cycles depending on the mare. We're fine with a less than ideal cover rate, as we've dealt wit winter, summer and fall foals, April is our sweet spot!. We just don't want people to "assume" mares are at fault for what appears to be a sketchy foaling history as many mares do not get bred for a couple or three years depending on life circumstances; stallions chosen for that year; etc. AND rarely, do we breed a mare back after foaling.
We're including individual mare's breeding history below.
Please contact us! with any further questions or clarifications!
- 2023. ?
- 2022. Mia will be three this year, but likely still not ready.
- 2021. Mia will still be to young for our breeding program.
- 2020.We are not breeding this year. Next foals will be in 2022.
