The
following
information
and pictures
will give
you an idea
of how Fred has matured
over the
years.
Unfortunately
I lost most
of his baby
pictures
when my
computer
crashed but
I think I
have made up
for it with
more recent
pictures of
him.
Follow along
as I go
through his
life
starting as
a weanling
and
continuing
to present
time.

Fred as a baby
Please click

These
pictures
were
taken of
Fred
when he
was
about 2
months
old
and still
on his
recipient
mother.
He was
the last
foal of
Miss
Bunny
Tardee
and we
had to
do an
embryo
transfer
to get
him.
You can
see from
these
pictures
that
even at
a
very young
age he
had a
lot of
width
and
muscle.
He was a
big
baby.

at this
time.

Fred
(Classically)
at
exactly
one year
of age.
When he
was a
late
weanling
we sent
him to
Stacie
Riehl in
Shiocton,
Wisconsin.
She owns
Legacy
Performance
Horses
and we
wanted
him to
be
handled
and
learn
his
manners.
I went
to her
training
center
and took
these
pictures
of Fred
when he
was
exactly
one
year old.
You
can see
the
correct
structure
of his
body and
I love
the fact
that he
has
always
grown
level.

Fred, April
of his
yearling
year.
His neck
had
really
lengthened
by then
and even
though
he still
had his
winter
hair,
you
could
still
see the
muscle
on him.
He was
also
starting
to get
his
golden
summer
color.

2010,
Fred at 2
years old
Please click on

Mike and
I
decided
that we
should
send
Fred
(Classically)
to Donna
Preskitt
who owns
the 5 W
Ranch in
Alabama
when he
was a
coming
two year
old.
Fred was
so good
legged
yet so
big we
didn't
want to
do
anything
to hurt
his
legs.
Donna
has the
underwater
treadmill.
I took
these
pictures
of him
in
August
and
believe
me, it
was hot
in
Alabama.
At that
time he
stood 16
hands
and was
still
very
balanced
and good
legged.
David
Silva
started
him
under
saddle
while he
was
there.
As you
can see
on the
pictures
he was
wringing
wet from
the
heat.

Fred at 3
years old

As a
three
year old
we moved
Fred
(Classically)
to a
great
friend's
place in
Mississippi.
Monte
May
spent
the
summer
riding
him and
taking
him to
ropings
and just
letting
him be a
horse.
His
daughter,
Tyler
even
rode him
on trail
rides.
I think
it was
great
for his
mind.
Even
though
he
didn't
look
like a
"fat
halter
horse"
he had
the
education
that I
think a
stallion
should
have and
he
stayed
sound
through
everything.
Two of
these
pictures
were
taken in May
and
Mike and
I went
to
Mississippi
in
August
when it
was very
hot and
I took
the
other
pictures.
As you
can see,
at that
time he
was
sweating
and
bleached
from the
sun.

We
brought
Fred
"home"
to
Wisconsin
in
2012. It
was good
to have
him
back
where I
could
enjoy
him and
watch
him as
he
matured.
It also
gave me
an
opportunity
to take
many
pictures
of him.
The
following
photos
will
follow
him
though
that
time up
to the
present
time.
It
amazes
me how
much he
changes
but
still
keeps
his
strong
back,
long
neck and
body. I
guess
the fact
that he
continues
to
develop
more
muscle
should
not
surprise
me as he
is bred
to have
muscle. The
combination
of Kids
Classic
Style
and Miss
Bunny
Tardee
could
not
produce
anything
but
that.
I hope
you
enjoy seeing the
changes
in
him. His
color
is a
gorgeous
golden
palomino
in the
spring
and
summer
and then
when he
starts
growing
his
winter
hair, he
turns
into a
lighter
shade
with
dapples
all over
his
body.
His mane
and tail
remain
white at
all
times.
