Seafeather is an nine year old bay pinto Chincoteague pony with an outstanding temperment, a willing dispostion, and an unbelievable athletic ability. Sea Feather has passed on lessons to many children, as Shannon taught riding lessons on him, showed him, allowed other children to show him, and finally has leased him out to a dear girl named Paige who is showing him in United States Pony Club events. He taught Shannon many lessons. Now he continues to pass on that gift to others.
For the amazing story of how Sea Feather came to live with Shannon Szymanski, check out this link.
The Story of Carollynn & Sea Feather
You can be part of a story like SeaFeather's by donating to the Feather Fund.
In 1998 his first foal, Feather's Flash of Elegance proved his ability to produce color as well as pass on his even temperment.
"Everyone told me a stud would be hard to keep. But Seafeather was (and still is now that he is a gelding) quieter as a stud than any mare I have ever handled," said owner, Shannon Szymanski. "I would trust him with any child," Shannnon says.
Seafeather's first foal( a filly) became a gray and white pinto as she grew into adulthood. She was purchased by a family in Pennsylvania. She is a beautiful mare.
His second foal, a colt born November 1999 is a bay pinto with the same even temperment his father shows. He has a crescent moon on his side.
His third foal, born October 30, 2000, is a doll. This pretty by colt, named Twist of Fate, is the only solid foal sired by Seafeather. Twist is now 3 1/2 years old and being trained under saddle. He will soon be offered for sale.
