Inspection 2024!
This year I finally was able to take Faith MF (Tjaarda x Jakob x Beart) to her adult inspection. Between Covid and having foals, she got there a bit late (she is 7 this year). She also has an old injury to one forearm, so I am very pleased with her end result of 3rd premium studbook. The judges had positive comments about her racial type and her walk.
As always, the Alberta Friesian Horse Association put on a wonderful event!

A write-up in the Phryso about the inspection in Quebec on Monday. Featuring the lovely Ms. Marvel MF!

Op de keuring in Quebec op maandag 4 september hebben juryleden Sabien Zwaga en Willem Sonnema de driejarige Ms. Marvel M.F. Ster (Hessel 480 x Jakob 302) als algeheel kampioen aangewezen. ‘Een evenredig gebouwde merrie met ruim voldoende rasuitstraling en een goede bovenlijn’, beschrijft Sabien...

Who out there loves BAROQUE Friesians?
Mythic Friesians is proud to introduce ZALERA MF, a 2023 Thorben x Tsjaarda x Jakob filly. Zalera is going to be a big girl! Her dam is nearly 17 hands with lots of substance, and Zalera looks like she will follow in her dam's footsteps. She has lots of bone, a lovely apple butt even at a few months old, and we think she will take after her dam in the hair department! (Her dam has a mane nearly down to her knees) With her pretty head, an upright neck, long forearm and lots of power in her movement, she will turn heads wherever she goes. She has also had plenty of handling, been in the trailer, stood for the farrier, and loves all of the attention.
Zalera will make an excellent dressage prospect, all around pleasure horse, and comes from a line of proven fertile broodmares. Please PM for more information, pictures and video!

Mythic Friesians' final mare of the year is up on camera!
Now on camera, Epona MF Star, sired by Sape 381 and out of a Wander 352 mare. She is bred to Hessel 480. She is 319 days currently and her milk test says imminent, however she is a maiden mare so anything goes. She might foal tonight or 3 weeks from now! She is as big as a house though so for her sake I hope she doesn't wait that long!

Also on camera still is Eowyn MF and her Hessel filly born last night. They will be inside for the next few days.
Please note that the camera is typically on only at night unless there is reason for the horses to be in during the day. We have thunderstorms in the forecast this week so they may be in more often!

Eowyn's foal by Hessel 480 is here!

Pictures coming soon!

Up on camera now:
Eowyn MF (Jakob x Beart)
This one is a bit of a rollercoaster, but here we are! If she holds to her usual pattern, I expect her to foal in the next 5-7 days. She is bred to Hessel 480 for a full sibling to her 2019 filly Jiselle MF Star and 2020 filly Ms. Marvel MF.

Our first foal of 2023 is here!
Faith MF (Tjaarda x Jakob) gave birth to a huge, strong Thorben 466 Sport Elite filly! This little girl is sugar and spice and everything nice!
She will be available to an approved home.

Mythic Friesians is now live on MareWatchers!
First up to foal is Faith MF (Tjaarda x Jakob) a six year old Friesian mare. This is her second foal and she is bred to Thorben 466. Her 330 day due date is May 14th, however last year she foaled at day 319 and she is milk testing as close, so we expect the foal within the next few days.
Camera is only on when a mare is inside, so if it is off it's because she is out for the day :)

Thanks for watching with us! 2 more mares to foal in June.

This kind of research is so important for our breed! If you are able to help out, please consider it!

Your Friesian can Make a Difference!

As part of FHANA’s Strategic Plan, one of the association’s goals is to become a leader in genetic research and equine wellness by working with research organizations and promoting their research. In support of this effort, the FHANA Health Committee has compiled a list of research studies across North America currently seeking candidate horses. Interested FHANA members are encouraged to contact research organizations directly for more information and enrollment details.
