Frequently people ask if I could give them information about one stallion or another. That encouraged me to assemble this page about some of the stallions that appear in many pedigrees. I have searched my files, browsed through miniature magazines since they started being published, and recalled many of the experiences that I have had with minis. With all the sources at hand, I will try to show some of the stallions you have asked about through the years. If you would like to correct anything that I may have listed in error or would like to add to the information that I have, please feel free to send me your comments. I will be adding to this list as time goes by, so please check back to see if that horse in your horse’s pedigree shows up eventually.
By the way, this list is not all-inclusive, nor a list of the best of the breed. It is simply a list of horses that I know something about, that I have seen, or that I have learned about by talking to the owners or others who knew about them. If your favorite is missed, my apologies.
Dell Tera's Moonman
1967
Measured 31″
I saw pictures of Moonman in the earliest of the Miniature Horse World issues when he was owned by J. C. Williams, Inman, SC. He was a very splashy red and white pinto that tended to pass his beautiful color on to his foals. Probably some of his best known are the two National Grand Champions, Contender and Summer’s Mucho Macho. After the birth of Contender, Vern Brewer bought Moonman and he came to Gainesville where he lived the short time until he died.
After losing Moonman, the Brewers purchased Mucho Macho and kept him for some time until selling him to his final owners, Guy and Virtus Hyatt.
