KT Slidin In Sage Filly Sire: KT Gunners Sage Bug Dam: Slide Me A Baileys Date Born: 5/2/25 Click here for more pictures Color: Buckskin Roan Price: 6,000 Here is another impressive Sagebug filly, that is out of Bailey. Sagebug is out of Continental Lady Bug and is by KT Gunpowder N Lead, “Gunner.” Gunner is a roan dunskin son of Cue Bars Laddie, AQHA point earning and producing stallion. Gunner’s dam, Pistol, has been shown NFQHA, has been featured on rule book and in the NFQHA magazine. She is a great working ranch horse, rope horse, and the kids can ride her as well. Continental Lady Bug is a big boned Continental Cad daughter going back to Mr Blackburn on the bottom. Bailey is a very pretty, feminine mare that has a strong performance top side, crossed with a great foundation bottom. Her size, bone, and muscle expression are the perfect combination of both. Bailey was ranch ridden and used in the roping pen before becoming a broodmare. Bailey’s sire, Slide on Bartender was a buckskin stallion with both AQHA points in reining and some championships under his belt. Slide on Bartender was an own son of Shining Spark out of a Two Id Bartender daughter. Bailey’s bottom side includes rope horses deluxe, featuring some of the greats like Jimeny Jumpup, Maverick Coke, Grey Badger II, Waggoner, and many others. Bailey is a favorite as she is always by the gate and loves attention. |

We are down to just the last few mares to foal and couldn’t be happier with this year’s foal and calf crop.
Back to the grind after Jr Show on Monday. Kaine and Kade only had a couple days of school and then they were headed to FFA State convention, Jaxsen is home one day longer before he went up. Kaine and Kade are on the Ag Sales Team and Jaxsen is in Food Products (jr high competition). Toni was taking 3 old mares to Sheena on Tuesday to get their teeth floated, so we gathered them up Monday night. Copper was going as well, because as many of you may remember, she somehow got her leg caught in the gate chain last summer as a foal still on her dam, well it is infected again and mom wants Sheena to have a look at it. And Heidi, our mare from TX is going in to get a blood panel, she was exposed to their stud before we got her, so we just want to see what is going on. We caught Heidi as well just because she wasn’t worked with much before we got her. She is just a clean slate.
Tuesday morning dad and Toni took the horses in dropped them off with Sheena. Heidi is open. Sheena says Copper legs looks pretty good, we just need to give her exceed. And Blue was terrible to do floating her teeth, we were all surprised by that (that is my sarcastic voice since you cannot heat my tone). Mr Pickles the donkey went in with Copper since he has been locked in with her while we were gone. He is a great companion animal. Everything got done pretty timely so Toni went and loaded up and came home with them. We are really thankful for Sheena. We moved Absolute to the dog pen in the back yard since she is waxed for the 2nd day.
I guess Absolute just wanted to foal in mom’s dog pen, she had a bay roan filly by Gunner Wednesday morning. Queenie had a fancy palomino colt by Tank. Full brother to Cowy. Juan called and had time to come out and weld the circle Wednesday. He did a great job, and now we have water back on. Circle 6 was trying to crash on us. Toni showed Juan where the sleeve was needed then went back to work. Kaine and Kade headed to Pullman with the Connell FFA chapter to participate in Ag Sales. They were not leaving until evening, so go to do chores before they left.
The Jr High, so Jaxsen, headed up to FFA State on Thursday morning. I do not recall what he said his competition is called. But they are evaluating different goods, like meats, cheese, chocolate chips? My info is from Jaxsen, he says he is really good at it, he was 5th at state, so he must be pretty good. He thought he would be in the top three and wasn’t super happy about being 5th. His team was 2nd in the state. He says that is why he is so good at making sandwiches. He knows what to put on it. So just us adults doing all the chores for a few days.
On Friday dad and Steve delivered a bull to Oregon. The dogs and I fixed the fence between 5 and 6, the calves were crawling out into the wheat field. We, the dogs and I, took a bunch of pics of Gunners foals, and then we went out and checked Sagebug foals. Toni, Marlo and I did the horse chores. Ben did the cow chores. Jaxsen was home late Friday (12:03 Saturday morning). We had a gal come out to look at Blonde. No, Toni doesn’t want to sell her. The gal really liked Blonde and all the other foals too of course. All of the fillies are obnoxiously tame. And July was out there, so it was a fun tour.
Anna came home from college on Saturday. Butte Red pickup had been up at Chipman and Taylor, so as part of my mothers day present she went and had it cleaned on Friday. It looks really good. Kade and Kaine’s Ag Sales Team was 5th at State, good job boys! Kade scores a perfect score on the written test and Kaine was 8th overall individual. Toni showed horses Saturday morning. We have a deposit on BB’s filly. Anna and I got the cows in and sorted the bulls off of the heifers. When Ben got home from work he helped and Toni and Jaxsen came down after lunch. We banded the later bull calves and the black ballie and clubbies. Kade and Kaine got home late Saturday night.
Happy Mothers Day. Freida had a big palomino colt on Mothers Day that looked like he had been in the oven too long. Toni and Mom gave him Nursemate ASAP, which we do with all of Freida’s foals. Ben made us all lunch, bacon wrapped shrimp, brisket, dutch oven potatoes, and he baked two of mom’s peach pies. Lunch was great. Then the boys worked on their steers to get them ready to go to Wheatland this weekend. Toni and I went out and moved Gracie and Queenie in with Tank. Kade and Jaxsen got Opal, Lightening and Mocha in while we were getting the other two in, and moved them out into the pasture. Kaine hauled Venus back to her house, Venus is an outside mare getting bred to MC, and Kaine is dating the daughter of Venus’ owner. So it worked out for her to go home. Lots of work done this weekend.
Mothers Day is celebrated everyday here! Our Mothers make our ranch and our program what it is. We are pretty proud of what our breeding program has done on the dam side for both the cattle and the horses. We are down to just the last few mares to foal and couldn’t be happier with this year’s foal and calf crop.

Lots of new foals this week
Running Sparkles and Irish just did not want to have Easter babies, both foaled Monday. Mom is claiming that Running Sparkles foaled on Easter. We aren’t going to argue about it. Toni took Hurricane Hailey and Mr Pickles (the donkey) into see Sheena Monday to get the vet work done so Hurricane can leave on Saturday. Guess who was harder to load, not the yearling filly who had not been loaded in a while. The donkey who wanted his nonrelated baby July to come with him. Toni had people out looking at yearlings on Monday. Dad took a bull to Lewison with Steve. Scott needed some pictures of the bulls we have left, so I went out and got pics of the 5 left, now we are down to 4.
Toni took Hurricane back in to see Sheena to get blood drawn for her coggins test and to do a health paper. Kade is working on halter breaking his filly, Texas Red, yes, he calls her Texas Red, not Red or Texas. I am surprised it is not longer. The boys are working on their Spokane steers every night. We leave on Tuesday, if you want to watch them show they show Wednesday and Thursday, if you need beef the sale is Saturday. With the price of beef it might be cheaper to buy it at Spokane Jr Livestock Show then at the store.
CeeCee and Kandy foaled on Wednesday. CeeCee had a fancy grullo colt by Sagebug and Kandy a bay filly by Dude. Everyone went somewhere on Wednesday. Dad, Steve and Skip hauled a bull for BB to Jed in Ellensburg. Bobette, if you are reading this make sure to ask him why he did not stop to see you. Toni went to Pullman with Jitterbug, Pinky and Abs. Then she stopped in Colfax and had lunch with Kimmy, and they named Running Sparkles filly. Then she went to Sonny and Jeannies and picked up the dog food. She came back to show Wild to a person. Kade and Jaxsen worked in Connell at the FFA plant sale after school.
Mil and Dally foaled on Thursday. A grullo colt and a chestnut filly. The boys started clipping their steers Spokane steers and heifers Thursday. Kaine worked at the plant sale Thursday after school. Katana and Red Robin foaled on Friday, two fillies, a buckskin and a chestnut. Chad came and trimmed some feet. Marlo came and helped Toni and Kade with chores and with Chad.
On Saturday Kicker, Leslie and I took the campers up to Spokane to park. I would like to tell you it was uneventful. However, Leslie got a blowout along the highway. We were about 5 miles from the rest stop and so Kicker and I, since we were in front of her, took our camper and unhooked it and then went back to change the tire. Of course all our equipment, like the impact gun, to make it go paster was still in the gooseneck from going to Reno, so we just had the basic stuff that stays in the tool box. And 100% of the vehicles that did not move over to the fast lane were Jeep Wranglers, just throwing that out there for all you jeep wrangler people. Toni and Scarlett got the mare and foals in, wormed them and gave them West Nile. Toni loaded Hurricane Hailey out to go to Wyoming. Ben went to work. Anna, Lane and Katelynn worked on fence all day, replacing fiberglass posts with metal T posts. Kade went and helped a friend with branding Saturday morning, while Kaine got started clipping. Kade got back early afternoon and the boys continued clipping and drying their steers. Anna, Lane and Katelynn moved the cows after they were finished with the fence.
Sunday Whitty left at around 10. Toni, Jaxsen and I went down and finished the Cappy’s fence. Anna, Lane and Katelynn cleaned out the barn and threw a bunch of stuff away. Kaine and Kade finished up with their steers and heifers and then cleaned out the trailer and worked on packing the trailer. Kade came down and helped us move Cappy’s pen down to circle 6. We also got some vidoes on Pine and put out straw bales. Toni and Kade went for a later afternoon ride.

Yes, it is already getting close to summer!
Monday was a pretty but stormy day. The boys were still on spring break Monday, so they loaded bulls for Dad, Steve and Uncle Skip to take to Wagners in Wilbur. Then Kaine rook Riggs in to see Sheena at Sagehill Vet, Riggs was looking anemic as she had the puppies. More cows decided that they were done being out on the sagebrush, so required someone to go get them in. Luckily the boys handled that too. The kids also worked on their cattle to get ready to go to the next show, which is an Angus show. We are still supplementing July, the baby jack. Kade had a friend out for dinner on his last day of spring break.
Tuesday morning Toni got up early to go into the school to take pics of the FFA Officers. She took a lot of really good pics. I got to edit them. 17 of the mares got the gate open to get out into the desert, so Toni got them in. She was not impressed with Piper D. Piper D was not ready to go back in. She also had some trouble getting some panels open to get 4 of the mares back in so had to just take them all down and set them back up one-by-one. That ended up taking quite a bit of time. Mom, Dad and Skip went to Davenport on Tuesday to meet Luanne. No new foals when we fed that night. Toni went and stayed with Grandma.
On Wednesday when Toni went to check Izzy had a brown colt by MC. She got to scratch him. Yo was acting off, so she went back down to check later and she had to pull it. The MC babies are pretty good sized. Kaine came home sick, he had a head cold and was disrupting class coughing so they sent him home. But he was on call to help. Toni called him to come help, then told him she had it. By Wednesday, July really didn’t want to be supplemented anymore on the milk, so it was a fight to get him to accept the syringe. Toni told Mom they are giving it up.
Toni had people out on Thursday. Some to visit with, some to look at horses. She finally got to meet her friend Tecla in person, they sometimes practice law together on bankruptcy cases. Tecla brought her kids out to see the livestock. The girls got to pet the donkeys, the foals, and a bunch of the ex-show heifers that thought kids feeding them was a great plan. The girls also got to play with the puppies. The puppies get quite a few visitors. Mom made the girls some cute bags with her sublimation printer. We then had a couple of other people out to look at yearlings and foals. They plan to come back out after we have a few more on the ground. Overall it was a good day!
The mares did not foal Thursday because Toni was down in the circle too much with all her people. Piper D had a fancy dun filly by Dude and Huck had a cute bay roan filly by Cappy. Chad came out and we trimmed some horses before we headed to Ellensburg. The kids had the trailers packed and headed out. About 8 miles outside of Othello we came to a car wreck, we got turned around and headed towards Moses Lake and went to Ellensburg via Moses Lake. We still made it. We got set up and stayed with cousin Bobette and Ryan. Apparently, Toni had been starving Jaxsen for DAYS and he ate them out of house and home.
We were up early to show Saturday, and actually not even that early, it was a blow and go show and did not start until 10, so only 5:30. That’s a pretty late show morning. Showmanship was first, youngest to oldest. Jaxsen and Daffy did great. Kade got called back in Intermediate. There were only 3 Srs so Kaine showed as a Sr, Anna was Grand Champion with Hazel and Kaine was Reserve with Baby Jewel, who actually did not show that great for her. Bred and Owned steers were next, Jaxsen had Daffy Duck. They did great. Ashley Henry had a steer she bought from us at the Evergreen Sale. Her brother showed him in PeeWee showmanship, and was Reserve Champion. He is a great steer. Ashley and the steer were third in their class. Anna’s cow and calf were Grand Champion Cow and Calf, the heifer calf won her division, Kaine’s bred and owned heifer won her division. Shortbred (Anna) and Cookie (Kade) were Grand Champion and Reserve Champion in their divisions. Baby Jewel (Kaine) was third in her class. Hazel (Anna) and Blossom (Kade) were first and second in their class and Hazel was Reserve Champion in her division. The Henry kids helped us pack up after they got theirs packed and we headed out. Leslie and Julian were in Davenport showing, and they picked up Kade’s Nile Merit Heifer sign. We got home in time to do chores and check horses. We also had people out to look at the yearling colts. A friend of the family, and we were sad to hear her dad had passed away. He was a good friend to our Grandpa.
Another new foal on Sunday, Rosie B waited until we got back to foal. Toni showed horses again on Sunday, so Anna, and then Kade, helped me move mares after Toni helped me get them in. Busy day catching up from being gone. The two big boys are now working on the cattle they are taking to Spokane. Jaxsen doesn’t plan on working on anything, but got told that he needs to change his attitude. Anna continues to work on her cattle. Due to the timing of FFA state, the kids will miss the big angus show in Madras. They have too much fun at FFA state. Anna has finals for college and then is hopefully coming home for the summer. Yes, it is already getting close to summer!

LOVE LOVE LOVE this filly, she is a fierce combination of precision and speed. She is going to be big and fast. Her sire, Gunner, is a fantastic dun roan son of Cue Bars Laddie, AQHA point earning and producing stallion. Gunner’s dam, Pistol, has been shown NFQHA, has been featured on the NFQHA rule book and in the NFQHA magazine. She is a great working ranch horse, rope horse, and the kids can ride her as well. Pistol’s sire, Gold Country Charro is a dunskin stallion that was shown in 1998 and 1999 in halter at local shows. He was broke to ride in the Allison Trimble training program, and was ridding by Jordan Crabtree. Pinky is a great mare that Toni showed halter and took to a few NFQHA shows in in hand trail. We then used on the ranch for a few years, she then went to Oaksdale and was ridden on trails. She has a great pedigree filled with both running and cow, Coys Bonanza, Sugar Bars, Major King and more.
