Fløtren arrived at our farm in early October of 1999, having been in
quarantine at Cornell for 5 weeks.  We had two outside mares waiting for his
arrival, MVF Viola, belonging to the Lapp Family, and Phelisia, a brown dun
imported daughter of Briggen (a grey), belonging to the Lunde's.  Both mares
foaled early in September; a filly for the Lapps and a colt for the Lunde's.
These are Fløtren's first American born offspring!   The filly, Valena, (a
brown dun) is so lovely, with tiny ears and muzzle, good bone and correct
legs, and a beautiful high head carriage.  The colt, much to all our
surprise, is a grey, also beautifully put together.  We had not expected
Fløtren to produce greys!  His Norwegian offspring have all been brown or
red duns, as far as we have been able to determine.  We are extremely
pleased with the quality of these foals, and the grey color is the ice cream
on the cake! Congratulations to their proud owners!
