New website
Welcome to our new website, Silver Feather Farm. It was time for a change, we thought. This new website fuses our ABRB and NAMTOBA sires and dams for a better overview of what we have to offer as sires and dams.
It also features separate pages for our stallions, whose race records and progeny records are set out in detail for other breeders to look over.
Pedigree & name changes
Due to wanting to register all our sires and dams with NAMTOBA, we have had to make some changes to several horses. Some only have their names changed slightly. If the horse was raced under a different name, this will be noted next to their race records. An example is the mare above in the picture, who used to be named Dark Mirage, but is now named Dark Mirrors.
Some horses had their birthyears changed. For example, Sky's On Fire's birthyear was changed from 2008 to 2006 to be eligible for NAMTOBA registration.
And in a few cases, pedigree changes had to be made. Our stallion Wicked War (previously named War Front), has had a change of sire. In all cases, we have tried to keep the pedigree as close to what it was before. In Wicked War's case, many of the ancestors he had in is pedigree previously, are still there through his new sire.
Splitting of programs
We used to be based in Europe only, but now we have branched out to Australia and the USA for more realistic racing programs. This also opens up the opportunity to spread our stallions over different continents, and to shuttle them to other places occasionally.
Back on the track
Since last year, we have not been taking part in much racing due to struggling with finding the time for the model horse hobby. However, with this new website, we hope to make a fresh start in the world of model horse racing. We are getting our horses out on the track again at ABRB, and hopefully soon at NAMTOBA too.
