Breeder of Rocky Mountain Horses
LexStone Ranch is
located about 60 miles west of Houston
in Bellville, Texas. Our
rolling pastures, mature oaks, and beautiful bluebonnets are the perfect home for our outstanding herd of Rockies. We purchased our first Rocky, Blue in
1999 and
immediately fell in love with the breed. The Rocky is an exceptional horse that is eager to please and highly
intelligent. Over the
years we carefully collected our wonderful broodmares and searched for
the perfect stallion. We were blessed to be allowed to purchase our
beautiful stallion, Post Rock Stoney Point. He is the perfect compliment
for our mares. We breed for
temperament, gait, and conformation. Our babies are imprinted at birth, handled
daily, spoiled, and allowed to play and grow up as horses in the pastures almost
year round. We do lots of ground work before exposing them to the saddle. The
Rocky is a slow maturing breed and we like to wait until they have grown enough
to support our weight before we put a rider on their back. We
believe that it is important to lay a good foundation, so that when the
horses leave our ranch, you have something solid to continue
to build on. Our foals are taught to lead, bathe, stand for the farrier and load into a trailer. We try to expose them to as many
things as possible. Each horse at LexStone is a member of our family.
We have made many friends on our journey to get here and we
hope to make many more.
