If you are interested in breeding your mare to a high quality North American Curly stallion, then you are at the right website. Sioux Warrior is not only exceptional when it comes to conformation and good looks, but he has the sweetest disposition, and is a real gentleman as well. To top that off, he passes these wonderful traits on to his offspring. Plus, he is downright unflappable. I have not found anything that will bother this calm-natured horse. I invite you to make an appointment to visit our farm and see for yourself why D.C.C. Sioux Warrior is the correct choice for your mare.

Please scroll down for pictures of his offspring.

	STATISTICS	*I am giving Warrior the designation of Heterozygous simply because the action of the gene that causes the hair to be curly has not been studied enough. As research continues and we know more about the curly gene and it's action I will know more about how to designate him. So far I am convinced that this is a simple dominant (curly haired) vs recessive (straight haired) trait that may have a modifier that causes various expression of the curls when they are present. (Tight curls vs loose waves) *Did you notice that in some pictures he has a mane and in others the middle is missing or the mane is gone? Well, it's not what you might think. He does not shed his mane or tail in the Spring. In fact, most Curly Horses do not shed their manes and/or tails in spring. A few from some bloodlines have received a gene passed down from one generation to the next that cause them to shed their manes and / or tails whe they shed their winter coat, but not our Warrior! Instead, he seems to think that the grass is greener on the other side and the only way to get to it is through the fence. Well, we all know that curly hair tends to be fragile hair. Hence, he rubs the center of his mane off within two weeks. If that happens, we roach his mane to keep it even looking. Come visit Sioux Warrior. Get to know him. And see why. . .

Sioux Warrior's Foals:

Mares at Deer Creek Farms:

Peanut

Peanut is the only mare that we will be keeping for breeding at this time. Peanut stands somewhere between 14.2 and 14.3 hands high. She is a beautiful and flashy straight-haired Buckskin Mare. She is our best mare and has personality plus as well as excellent conformation. She is the mother of "Spirit of a Warrior", "Star Siouxvenir", "Mighty Mischevious Warrior", and "Warrior Stands Strong". We will occasionally be breeding her to Warrior as she is producing some outstanding foals for us; however, she is an awesome lesson horse and loves children (and they absolutely adore her) and she is the hit of the barn. Everyone loves Peanut! So our plans are that she will continue to give lessons and turn out a custom "Siouxvenir" for us every few years. Check back often to see if this is the year that we breed her because you won't want to miss owning one of her foals!
