I agree with you on stud fees. Having recently built our new home, 2 barns, and feeding all of our "critters," I want to be able to find the best stallion for our mares. I recently discovered we have a Davenport mare & will be doing more research. I'll be looking for a stallion for her for next year's breeding (we've already contracted for breeding this year). If you hear of any Davenport stallions at stud, please forward info to me.
