I can resist anything except temptation.
Absolutely knackered after 1100 km to this charming little island Texel.
A weekend to behold.
This drama sunset in december- in the flogging ocean - waves meters high.
The contrast could hardly be starker: little soft cloudy flakes came out of the breaking waves and hunted across
the beach - to end in nothing...
For a long time I have not breathed such wonderful air!
Never knew how tasty Oranges are- with the ocean on your lips.
The one and only Perlino son of the famous BIRLING GLINT OF GOLD.
Glint of Gold sadly passed by in 2011 and so our little Kilcummer Crackerjack saves this wonderful old
and healthy bloodline by the mating of some very special old and pure lines - like no other.
When I found his half sister Kilcummer Palomino Bracken I lost my heart - and I knew- exactly here I have to
go on searching.
A unique chance for us to add the old lovely Birling bloodline to every foal we will breed - this fantastic healthy
breeding, that makes so many people swoon - and how right they are!
Crackerjack elates everybody by his kindness and his absolutely terrific, correct frame.
Visitors are fascinated by this little pride boy. What a stallion!
Not for nothing Jack earned important awards, but for us this is not important. We do not visit shows.
What counts for us we see with our hearts.
And this Jack has taken by storm.
With Birling Grey Mirage and Birling Dorado we had already saved the last two wonderful unpayable Birling
stallions for our breeding, that leave nothing to be desired - and now we got the chance with our little Jack-
grandson of the stallion of the century BIRLING GOLDEN CLOUD - to go dreamlike ways in terms of colour!
The bloodline of KILCUMMER CRACKERJACK is bred very close to the line and goes back to the best elite
gene donors, that were ever bred by the english shetlandpony breeding.
It follows the remarkable father's side with BIRLING GLINT OF GOLD, son of the stallion of the century
BIRLING GOLDEN CLOUD, beside our BIRLING GREY MIRAGE the most important stallions of the Birling stud.
In combination with TYROS BLOSSOM - a golden promise.
TYROS BLOSSOM is not only mother of the well-known BIRLING GLINT OF GOLD- she is also mother of
the fruitful TYROS BELLA (dam of BIRLING GOLDEN SAMBA, BIRLING CHICO and BIRLING SPELLBOUND).
TRYOS BELLA is as well grandmother of our pure Birling stallion BIRLING DORADO and our
charismatic BIRLING BRIGHT MIRAGE.
Ever since this point it begins to show of what an extreme value KILCUMMER CRACKERJACK demonstrates for
our stud. Not the colour makes him so important - it is the combination of PERLINO AND this remarkable
pedigree that makes him irreplacable to us.
Beyond the shadow of a doubt the mother's side mustn't hide behind this- the motherfather of his dam
BIRCHWOOD TEA ROSE - the famous LITTLE JO OF GREEN MEADOWS (among others sire of our little
BIRCHWOOD PRETTINESS) goes back to a marvellous line breeding on FAIRY LIGHT,
the important gene donor born 1925, across ELECTRIC LIGHT on both sides he carries the
outstanding JACK 16, the founder of the english Shetlandpony breeding.
On the mother's side joins the who is who of the best english breeding:
SILVER OF THORNE- a fantastic little pure white stallion born 1961, who is also the father of the
wonderful ASHORNE VELVET, the sire of the most influential KINGTON mares -
KINGTON PARSLEY (mother of our famous BIRLING GREY MIRAGE) and KINGTON CROCOS
(mother of KINGTON PINOCCIO, the sire of our KINGTON BLUE BELL).
Great names like NEWTON, ESCHONCHAN, TYROS STORM OF LAMBRIDGE- the famoust palomino donor
of the english Shetlandpony breeding - STANHOE HAPPY WANDERER and the best old ARDMAIR
bloodlines make our little KILCUMMER CRACKERJACK become an extraordinary appearance for the
international Minishetlandpony breeding.
We were at the right place at exactly the right time.
Thank you so much, Mr. Voskuil!
Crackerjack is an angel. So kind to his foals and to children.
Already in this short time I enjoy his full confidence.
He came to me the first day and layed his mouth on my shoulder.
That's how it started.
I can not offer you the ocean and its wonderful air, little Jack, and this makes me feel sad.
But I hope you will nevertheless enjoy life with us.
It would give us great pleasure.
Our breeding stallion Kilcummer Crackerjack serves exclusive our own broodmares.
