Our Lippitt Morgan Horse Program
First backing, April 12, 2007.
She never even flinched. Yay!
April 17th, 2007, Lindsey Hagwood sat on Bam's back while I led Bambam around for about 15 minutes. Except for the terrible bug problem that afternoon, Bambam was fantastic.
I located Bambam on the Internet after looking for months for a
Lippitt Morgan filly. While speaking with Patsey
via
email, I decided Bambam and I were a perfect match, satisfied
that this little imprinted filly had the patient nurturing I was
looking for in a
foal. On April 30th, 2006, Bambam was delivered quite
literally to my doorstep, exactly one hour before I was to graduate
from The Citadel. Suddenly, the graduation
I had worked so hard toward didn't seem so important as I looked into
Bambam's sweet morgan face for the first time. She was ten times more
beautiful than she had been in my wildest dreams.April 17th, 2007, Lindsey Hagwood sat on Bam's back while I led Bambam around for about 15 minutes. Except for the terrible bug problem that afternoon, Bambam was fantastic.
17 months old
I have not been disappointed in the least in this little horse. Bambam is a typical morgan: She is easy to train, very forgiving and will do anything I ask of her. Most of what I ask her is off lead and without the aid of a halter. Of course I do formal training with a rope halter. Bambam is loving, responsive, fiesty and FULL of energy, spirit and curiosity. What a cool little horse!

Isn't that adorable??

I will post any foals for sale on this page. It will be a while: Bambam is only a baby right now. Her first breeding might take place when she reaches her fourth birthday to the magnificent Lippitt morgan stallion Randallane Dayspring in Alabama. He has all 25 Lippitts in his blood; the resulting foal will have all 25 foundation morgans in its bloodlines. Raising Bambam to breed, show, ride, and trail is part of the Lippitt legacy, and I'm here to enhance that legacy with Bambam.
Our goals are as follows:
- Breed for happy, healthy full Lippitt Morgan babies with all 25 foundation horses in their backgrounds, which preserves the original morgan blood
- Breed for the Morgan temperament, conformation, intelligence, and beauty, which preserves the original morgan's sought-after attributes.
- Add to the number of 2500 Lippitt morgans in the world.
The criteria required to be considered a Lippitt Morgan is strict. The following was taken from the Lippitt Morgan Breeder Association website:
The Foundation
Stock were chosen by three criteria:
1 - They must be registered Morgans.
2 - They must have as close a cross to our 'cornerstone' Peters' Ethan
Allen 2nd 406 as possible.
3 - They must have produced at least one direct line of descent
evidenced in our present 'Lippitt' population. Since, to be considered
a Lippitt a horse must be totally derived from this Foundation Stock,
criteria for their selection is crucial, all Lippitts trace back, on
every line of their pedigree to the following foundation horses:
