Dedicated breeders Colored Morgan Sport Horses, Ladrabors Retrievers & Rare Tennessee Fainting Goats

SC Morgans is located in the Lake Champlain Valley region of Vermont on the small island of North Hero.
We are mainly a breeding farm striving to preserve and produce large bodied "Old" style Morgans with a splash
of COLOR! Our horses are versatile enough for the Sport horse world, eye catching for the show ring, yet quiet enough for the family friend. Our bloodlines are a rich blend of old Brunk and Gov't breeding. Our whole herd carries some very old, hard to find genetics. We strive to preserve some very Rare Jubilee King lines and are blending them with Red Correll, certain Flyhawk and other 'old family' lines. Good dispositions and work ethics seem to come down through these lines.

2009 started with an Equine business trip to Brazil. Both our Vet, Dr. Phil Van Harreveld - Of the Vermont Large Animal Clinic - and myself, went. Our purpose was to promote the Vermont Equine industry in South America. While there, we met with numerous horse breeders of various breeds; including a few Morgan owner/breeders. A lot of time was spent in the Sao Joao Boa Vista area with Dr. Joao Batista (Bimbo). Bimbo is known for producing the first embryo foal in Brazil. His knowledge of embryo transfer is extensive. Embryo work, is all he does through his clinic. Both Dr. Phil & I were honored that he spent so much time with us. The knowledge we brought home to Vermont, will be used help promote future equine industry in other countries.

2009 will be a tough year due to our ecomony. We will be flushing all of our breeding age mares and freezing their embryos. Some of these embryos will be frozen for Export and offered for sale. Most will be put on "ice" for the future. We feel it's very important to save as much of the original Morgan gentics as possible. Freezing for the future far out weighs producing a bunch of foals every year. We will continue to produce a few foals but, not as many have we have in the past. We need time to ride and enjoy what has been produced!
* NEWS FLASH* We currently have embryos successfully frozen! More to follow throughout late summer and early fall.

New for 2010 - An Embryo Receiptant herd for outside clients. We are planning on adding at least 10 mares for outside clients. We will except ALL breeds of embryos for transplant. We can also "Build a Morgan Embryo" for outside clients.

Along with our Morgan horses, we raise a few wonderful English-Bred, AKC Labrador Retrievers. They help out on the farm and compete in AKC Agility trials. We try to have at least one quality litter of pups per year, which we offer for sale. Island Uno whelped a fancy litter on March 16, 2009. The litter sire was the sweet, Mistyfield March To The Beat - aka. Drummer. This litter was all spoken for at birth! We have plans of breeding, Island Harley and her daughter, Island Breeze for early 2010 litters. Please check back for updates! We have an extensive puppy waiting list but, you never know!

We offer horses for sale, AKC Labrador Retrievers (Yellow & Black), stallions at stud, full equine AI services, and an equine mobile semen freezing service with both storage and shipping available. This freezing service is open to all equine breeds!

Give us a call if you're in the area. The coffee/tea is always on!

This site is dedicated to the Fond memory of my friend and Mentor, Dr. Lowell Hughes.
(April 4, 1928- Nov. 5, 2001)

Dr. Hughes with his wonderful stallion, Patchett Hill (Easter Vermont x Starlette B)
Dr. Hughes was the founder of Caduceus Morgans in North Liberty, Iowa. He was known for producing large Black Morgan Sporthorses of Mid-western and Brunk breeding. He had a knack for finding well bred horses that were tucked away on lost roads and in forgotten barns.

His favorite stallion being the late, Wyoming Flyhawk (Domino Joe x Lily Black), actually stood at Reed Allen's Ranch in Lander Wy. along with my deceased foundation stallion, H-Ken (Kenfield x Muchacha). I guess it was written, even back then, that I would eventually meet Dr. Hughes. Our taste in horseflesh were quite similar.

Dr. Hughes was a very kind and generous man who was always willing to take a new comer under his wing. This is what he did for me. I miss my friend and mentor. Words can never describe how I feel or tell the depth of my loss. I will take both the knowledge he gave, and the horses he produced and carry on into an uncertain future marked by his footsteps. God Bless until we meet again...............
