2025 starts off with a bang..

The year 2024 has been quite calm overall at the breeding.

The foals sold for the most part remained in boarding at our breeding while waiting to be able to join their owners.

2025 promises to be different..

Indeed, our horses Macarena, Luna, Ilusa have already found their new families at the beginning of this year, (families that we thank for the trust placed in them).

Macarena and Luna, at the time of writing these lines are about to leave for Germany, while Ilusa is getting ready to go to the sun on the island of Mallorca...

A sublime black Pure Spanish Breed horse is joining us to find his new home: Camborio de Larrey:

A cocktail of kindness, beauty, charisma. A baroque horse as desired, with size (1.68m), ridden and driven, a a thrue jewel.

The births are about to arrive. Our adorable Perla GM, confirmed last October, will normally be the first to show us her wonder, stay connected!

Winter is here

The cold has set in at the farm.

The last 2024 foals Oléo VMD and Ojálà VMD are now old enough to be weaned. Indeed, their mothers hardly let them suckle anymore, and need rest before welcoming their next foals (respectively in May 2025 for Deseada VPD, the mother of Oléo VMD, and June 2025 for Quintilla Carthago, the mother of Ojálà VMD.)

After the rains of November and December 2024, it is now the cold that is arriving, and also the return of the sun (a little), to the great delight of our horses (and us!). Breeding is hard, breeding is cruel sometimes, and each winter reminds us of it.

Resisting the rain, resisting the cold, running after time, to finish a day "before nightfall" is complicated, the workload is enormous. Fatigue is felt. But in the evening, knowing our horses are healthy, happy and with full bellies, in front of the fireplace we warm our bones and hearts.

It is a quiet time. The horses are resting, taking advantage of the winter to regenerate. It is the ideal time to trim each horse (the farrier trims the horn of the hooves which grows every month, like our nails.), renew the vaccinations (our herd is vaccinated against Equine Flu, Tetanus and Rhino-Pneumonia, responsible for abortions in pregnant mares for example, it is also fatal in its neurological form), visit the dentist etc.

In 2 months already, the first Pure Spanish Race foals of the 2025 season will arrive.

A season that promises to be rich in quality (we used an outside stallion for our Dressage mares, as well as high-quality stallions with diluted coats for our mares carrying cream and pearl.) So 11 foals are expected this season! A record but one that we do not want to repeat, indeed it is important for us to have the necessary time for the education of each foal, births will therefore be revised downwards for 2026. In the meantime, we will take advantage of 300% of the 2024 babies still present, as well as the 2025 babies that are arriving!

We wish you all a very happy new year 2025, with the horses of Yeguada Los Siete Reinos!

Our foals join their new families...accommodation for our equines.

The year's foals are starting to join their new families. A moment always filled with emotion, it is a heartbreak for us each time, bearable thanks to our superb adopting families, who take great care of our foals and regularly give us news.

We were particularly touched by the recent visit to an equestrian pension near the city center. See horses, locked in boxes 24 hours a day, “waiting” for their owner to come and take care of them.. We are taking advantage of this post to raise awareness of the absolute necessity of housing your horses as much as possible in a herd, in the meadow, in the paddock as much as possible, and as infrequently and for as short a time as possible in the box, for their well-being. The horse, an animal weighing 500 kg or more, made by Mother Nature to walk around 25km per day, locked up and condemned in an area of ​​9m2 to wait for its owners to be able to move, is inconceivable for us.

We realize that sometimes there is no choice. For example, we have a few boxes at the breeding site for monitoring foaling, the infirmary (horse requiring rest and/or care) but we absolutely do not make it a year-round accommodation for our horses.
