To all the friends, followers, customers and supporters of Shallochmill Stud I’d just like to say a great big thank you 😘
2025 was filled with fun starting off with five healthy foals arriving safely, ponies left the Mill to new homes in Wales, England, Ireland and Shetland and previous graduates were out winning flying the flag for Shallochmill.
I ventured out to a few shows where the ponies did me proud including winning strong classes and a junior championship at the Royal Highland show.
Sprites youngstock continue to do well in the show ring but it’s pleasing to see younger boys Luigi and Ranger having babies out collecting red rosettes now too.
With five stallions working in the summer the 2026 foaling season is going to be an interesting one with hopefully some more future champions 🤞🏼
And let’s not forget the two mini donkey foals born later in the year. A pair of mischief makers one has already nearly broken the internet with his video going viral being viewed over 21 million times. Mental.
The ponies continue to gain admirers who adore their personalities with very few, if any, visitors heading home without becoming addicted.
I do hope everyone enjoys the photos and videos I post showing the ponies in their natural states and the antics they get up to.
I thoroughly enjoy these little people and I hope you all do too.
From Stuart, myself and the Shallochmill herd Happy New Year ###
