So... talk about a walk down memory lane. I searched up old deceased horses that I bred. I remember all the oldies I named, the first ones that I created, and it got me thinking, we've probably all got some of those that we remember.

I'm not quite certain why I have such sentimental feelings for these pixel ponies. I've grown attached. Maybe too attached, no that can't be right. :))


One of my very first creates was Commander Data. Yes, I'd been watching Star Trek, lol! There wasn't much by way of "special" genes in this old girl, but there was just something about her that I loved. I kept all but one of her foals (it slipped passed me into auction). Perhaps because she was one of my very firsts, I was rather sad when she passed.

Now her eldest foal is 17, sired by my very first perfect foundation herd helper stallion, Fancy Lines--who has also passed now. Despite the lack of genes I really breed for, I will be keeping her line alive as best I can. I've got some third generation mares that descended from her, and it makes me smile when I see my old Commander up there in the lineage!

Another lady that holds a special place in my heart is this beauty, Olivio Macho.

I bought her as a part of an old breeding project that I've veered away from now, but I couldn't bring myself to sell her. Maybe because her only intact foal looks like this:

I love this W2/frame pattern, it's stunning! Now this pretty lady is in danger of passing, and I've got no intact babies to continue this line. I'm hoping to get a good filly from her this season, but if not then it simply was not meant to be. I don't really actively breed for frame or W2, but it would be nice to keep a piece of these two going. :) We shall see!


Good ol' Robust here is another oldie from my beginning here, and true to her namesake she's still kicking! I hope to see her stick around a while longer, so hopefully I haven't jinxed it! She's actually got foals in several of my active lines (snowflake, KP, DP, axiom) so I don't think her bloodlines going away anytime soon!

I could keep going, but these ones seem to mean the most to me. Do you have any old lovelies?
