News from Mocha Miniatures

2009 Arista's Choctaw Charlie Sons


Kodie X Mocha's Cherokee Angel Feather	Quinn X NFC's Cherokee Maiden


NFC's Cherokee Maiden	Mocha's CC Cherokee Harlequin, "Quin"

Mocha's CC Cherokee Harlequin, "Quinn", is Cherrie's 15th foal, 6th by Charlie. These foals are snapped up before weaning every year, and his picture speaks for itself. Check out full brother Scout under 2008 foals. We are very happy that he will be staying fairly close by with Linda Cameron-Davis of Pippin Hill in Newburgh, Maine, and look forward to Linda and Quinn accompanying us to the World Show in the future. We have also retained breedings,and are already excited about Quinn carrying on in his beautiful mom's footsteps. Cherrie is getting a well-deserved rest .... for 2010 at least.


Mocha's Cherokee Angel Feather

Mocha's CC Miakoda Gold, "Kodie"
Miakoda is a Native American word meaning 'power of the moon', and this flashy little guy sent us over the moon with his outstanding conformation and color. Mom, Mocha's Cherokee Angel Feather, surprises us each year with her totally distinctive and beautiful foals. Kodie is available for purchase. Please see details on the Sale Horses page.

Our 2008 Foals!

Mocha's Boogerman's Promise

Mocha's Boogerman's Promise

Mocha's Boogerman's Promise, our petite World Top 5 Senior Mare, gave us another perfect little Charlie colt, almost identical to his accomplished older brother Mocha's CC Promise of Gold, who has been burning up the show ring with talented owner/handler Matt Drown.

Mocha's Gold Plated Promise

Mocha's CC Gold Plated Promise, "Beau"

Mocha's CC Gold Plated Promise, "Beau", however, will probably never see 31"! We refer to him as Mr. Perfect. I know we all breed for a true horse in miniature, but rarely get exactly that. Beau IS a true horse in miniature, complete with a gorgeous head, long upright neck, and that trademark Charlie body - beautiful silhouette with a laid back shoulder and great hip.
He tracks impeccably, and this little guy can MOVE!
Older sister Mocha's CC Gilded Promise at 28" has been surprising everyone with her
Liberty performances, and Beau promises to have that same gift.
Beau is AMHA Futurity Nominated and would certainly be an asset to any serious breeding program with his Gold Melody Boy/Rowdy bloodlines. He is proudly offered for sale. Updated pictures and details are on our Sale Horses page.

Cherokee

NFC's Cherokee Maiden
at age 19

NFC's Cherokee Maiden gave us foal # 14, her 5th Arista's Choctaw Charlie foal, a spectacular, symmetrically marked bay tovero pinto colt, complete with the presence and attitude to take him right to the top!


Mocha's CC Cherokee Spirit Guide, "Scout"

Mocha's CC Cherokee Spirit Guide, "Scout", already has his new show home with the Greenwood Family of Hurricane Hollow Farm, Keene, NH. Congratulations!
Watch for Melanie and Scout in the show ring in 2009 and beyond!

We are expecting three special foals in 2010

one by Mocha's Boogerman's Royal Blue	and two by Arista's Choctaw Charlie

Royal's 2010 foal will be a full sibling to

Mocha's Penny Royal

Penny, as a yearling, came home from the 2006 AMHA World Show with 2 Top Tens in
AOTE Mares and Amateur Junior Mares - Level 2, and a World Reserve Futurity title!
Penny also won the 2006 Eastern Championship AOTE Mare title! In 2007, Penny
won two World Top Tens in Amateur Junior Mares - Level 2, and the AOTE Two Year
Old Mare Futurity. In 2008, as a senior mare, Penny brought home two more World Top Ten titles in Amateur Senior Mares - Level 2, and AOTE Senior Mares, as well as multiple
Supreme Halter Titles both amateur and open!


Mocha's Sienna Royal

The 2007 full sibling is Mocha's Sienna Royal, now proudly owned by Patty and
Nick Milano of Barrington, NH. While Penny is fully mature at 32",
tiny bay Sienna will probably never see 30".

NFC Dark's Spice of Life

NFC Dark's Spice of Life, age 19 and
5 months pregnant

Penny and Sienna's mom, NFC Dark's Spice of Life is one of my original NFC mares, purchased as a yearling and shown to multiple AMHA Grands and Supremes over many years. (NFC Miniature Horse Farm, for those of you new to the miniature horse world, was home to Rowdy, Boogerman and Egyptian King during their glory years, and had a huge positive influence on the entire industry.) 'Spice' is a Dark Destroyer daughter, and her dam is also dam of NFC Egyptian Kings Keepsake, two time World Reserve Champion, and sire of multiple World Champions. Colt or filly, this baby is one I'm really looking forward to.
Here is Spice's beautiful, 2003 Charlie daughter, Mocha's CC Cinnamon Spirit

Mocha's CC Cinnamon Spirit

Charlie's 2010 babies will be from one of his 'regulars' and one new lady.
We are looking forward to Charlie foals from the following mares:


Mocha's Cherokee Angel Feather

Mocha's Cherokee Angel Feather is expecting her fourth Charlie foal in 2010.
32" Feather retired from the show ring after the AMHA World Show in 2004 at age 6, completing a star-studded 5½ year show career which included dozens of Grand Championships and New England Year End Awards as a junior and senior mare, multiple Amateur Grand Championships, AMHA Honor Roll Top Tens, Supreme Halter Titles, the Eastern Regional Aote Mare Championship, Eastern Championship Top Tens, and World Top Tens as both a Junior and Senior Mare in Amateur, Color, Youth, and Produce of Dam.

Feather's first three Charlie foals are pictured below. They are totally distinct from each other, and a repeat of any one of them would make me very happy! Mocha's CC Litonya Gold, "Tonya", with her pretty blaze, inherited all of her Dad's beautiful movement. Mocha's CC Lucky Doctor B, "Dice", with that same movement, plus his Mom's color and blue eyes, is already a Supreme Halter Champion. Dice brought home a Futurity Top Ten from the 2008 World Show, and will continue his show career, adding several performance divisions in the future.

Mocha's CC Bay Be Blue

Mocha's CC Bay Be Blue, "Becca"


"Becca" at 5 days	Becca's dam, Flying W Farms Blue Le Fox at age 20

Beautiful "Becca", Mocha's CC Bay Be Blue, is expecting her first foal. We hope Becca will travel in her Mom, FWF Blue LeFox's illustrious footsteps. No one can replace our Blue Boy daughter and World Reserve Champion "Fox", but at 23, she has decided to be a permanent grandma and turn over the child bearing chores to her daughter. These two are so close that we fully expect Becca's baby to have two moms!

This cross of intense Gold Melody Boy with Blue Boy should be a winner, and we can't wait!

Please check back starting in March, 2010 for announcements of our foals.
If you have a special interest any one cross in particular, please contact me
and I will be happy to send you a private birth announcement or even
'reserve' him or her for you.
