~RANCH EQUIPMENT

JOHN DEERE RIDING MOWER — $500
Older mower with low hours. Does have two flat tires but runs and has been serviced through John Deere. We purchased a new mower, so we are not replacing the tires before selling.

3-PIECE ROPING CHUTE — $1,500
Includes battery box.

SINGLE PONY CART — $1,800
Totally refurbished and ready to go.

~ANNA — SUPER-SAFE GAITED MARE

$2,000

Age: Senior, 18+
Height: 14.3 hh
Breed: Saddlebred / Gaited Pacer
Color: Bay

Training: Beginner English flat, Western trail, walk/trot. She is gaited and does not have a traditional lope. Also drives.

Experience: Beginner lesson horse in both English and Western, trail horse, kids’ summer camp horse, and parade experience.

Temperament: 2/10. Great in a herd without a lot of typical mare behavior. She can get a little barn sour, but it is easily corrected. Rides out alone or in a group.

Give her 2–3 days in a new environment to look around and settle in, and she is good to go.

Great for:

Tying
Tacking
Bathing
Farrier

Best Fit: Older child, approximately 8+, or anyone who can put a little leg on her. She can be lazy, but once you get her moving, she will go just about anywhere.

Health: Current vaccines and Coggins. Farrier current; due for dental float.

Maintenance: None. Sound.

~GUS — THE BIG SWEETHEART

$2,500

Age: Senior, 18+
Height: 17 hh
Breed: Belgian Draft
Color: Palomino

Training: Beginner Western trail horse and driving horse. Walk/trot/lope.

Experience: Beginner lessons, trail riding, kids’ summer camps, and parades.

Temperament: 1/10. Wonderful, quiet, sweet-as-a-peach gelding. This is the kind of big guy we have trusted with a wide range of riders.

Would make a fantastic husband horse, family trail horse, or confidence-building mount.

Best Fit: Wide range of riders. His biggest consideration is simply his size — he is a BIG boy, so if mounting from the ground is difficult, you will want a mounting block.

Health: Current vaccines and Coggins. Due for farrier; our current farrier does not work on drafts.

Maintenance: Sound.
Important Disclosure: Gus has sweet itch. We currently have heavy sand flies in South Texas, and managing it has been a struggle. He came from up north and had no issues until approximately one month after arriving in South Texas.

He also has an old muzzle scar from his previous Amish halter/harness setup. It does not affect him.

🌾WE WRAPPED UP OUR FIRST WEEK AT COASTAL BEND RANCH ACADEMY! 🐴

What an incredible first week of learning, exploring, and growing on the ranch! 💛

We believe some of the most meaningful learning happens when children can see it, touch it, experience it, and connect it to the real world. This week was all about building the foundation for a safe and confident year at the ranch.

Our first week focused on:

🌿 Ranch Safety — learning how to safely explore and move through our ranch environment
👀 Hazard Observation — practicing how to notice potential hazards and make safe choices
⛈️ Emergency Preparedness — learning our ranch emergency plan and what to do when unexpected situations arise
💧 Hydration & Heat Safety — understanding why taking care of our bodies is especially important in the South Texas heat
🐴 Animal Safety — learning how to approach, observe, respect, and safely interact with the animals who share our classroom
📚 Hands-On Learning — bringing literacy, art, observation, conversation, and real-life experiences together throughout the day

And of course, there was plenty of time for the best kind of learning: meeting the animals, reading outside, creating, asking questions, exploring, and getting a little ranch dirt on our boots. 🐷🐢🐐🐓🐴

This is what Coastal Bend Ranch Academy is all about—giving children the opportunity to learn beyond four walls while developing independence, confidence, responsibility, curiosity, and a genuine connection to the natural world.

One week down…and SO many ranch adventures still ahead! 🌈🌾
