People are gearing up for nicer, longer daylight hours as spring is creeping closer. It may still be January,
but the Rocky Mountain Breeders Association (RMBA) is running wide open with the annual Stallion
Service Auction!
It’s easy to see why the RMBA is known for being a breeders’ association when you look at the top quality of stallions participating in the auction. The diversity of stallions and breeder’s programs are
what really showcase the variety of members’ programs.
When the 2023 stallion auction line-up boasts offspring of Metallic Cat, A Streak of Fling, Playgun,
Firewater Finale, Dual R Smokin, Bet Hesa Cat, Dash For Perks, and more, you can tell the RMBA Stallion
Service Auction has the right stud for whatever your goals. Some younger stallions are just getting their
performance career going; others have offspring just hitting performance age; while others are tried and
true, top of the line stallions with an impressive performance record for themselves and/or their offspring.
Check out the line-up of incentives on some, too! Wowza!!! Well worth the investment, no matter your
interest!
The winning bidders are entering into a legal and binding contract. Mare owners are encouraged to read
through the information and contact the stallion owner with all questions including fees. Click on each
stallion to see information, pedigree, and associated fees such as shipping, mare care, chute fee, or others. Breedings are generously donated by the stallion owners as the major fundraiser for the RMBA.
Some stallions also require a contract specific to their stallion to be signed and returned prior to
breeding arrangements.
Peruse the 2023 Stallion Service Auction lineup on the website at http://www.montanarmba.org under the “Stallions” button. The auction bids are taken on the website with Round 1 running January 15 – March 1.
A few shoutouts to some of the RMBA members who went to enjoy the North Country Stock Horse
Association shows over January 13-14, at the 406 Arena outside of Vaughn, Montana. The listed member results were obtained from the NCSHA Facebook page. In no particular class order, congrats to fellow RMBA members:
