Jet Black Bully

2009 Black AQHA Colt

Not a white hair on him, his dam is a daughter of Bullys on Fire and out of a daughter of Bunny Bid. 

 

If black's your favorite color, here's the colt for you!!  He doesn't have a single white hair on him, he's beautifully put together from the tip of his tiny nose to the end of the black tail on his big rear end!!  His mother is a daughter of Bullys on Fire whose offspring are proving to be not only great barrel horses, but just really nice, good minded individuals.  The Basic Black Spruce babies, to date, have 100% satisfied new owners!  Look through the rest of his pedigree---you'll find a solid family of speed and performance horses; bloodlines that have proven through time and accomplishments that they ARE truly outstanding athletes that are trainable, sound, and competitive.  This is Fire Bugs' second foal and we are more than happy with her abilities as a broodmare.  An injury when she was a weanling has prevented her from being a futurity/derby horse as was intended.

Pictured below is Basically on Fire, a full sister to Jet Black Bully.  She is owned by Sara Erhardt from North Dakota and is a yearling this year.  We hear lots of positive comments from Sara about her pretty filly.  Thank you, Sara, for the great job you have done with her.  We wish you much success in the future.
