It’s a colt! Born August 23, 2023, here is the 4th Marsh Tacky foal to be born on Daufuskie in decades, the 2nd to be born on our permanent location at Heritage Hall, and the 2nd foal out of Flaca x Louie, who most recently gave us Clover last year. He’s a red head and has displayed the chillest, most laid back personality than perhaps any of the babies we have had to date. The lesson kids adore him and so do we!

Give a warm welcome to Mateo, the second Marsh Tacky foal to be born on Daufuskie Island in decades. He arrived six days after his half sister Estelita, yet he has surpassed her in size since day one! His dam is Carolina Moon and he is the second offspring for both “Mama” and his sire, Lowther’s Lucero. He has a brave and curious personality and already has proven to love running, bucking and snacking on Spanish moss. As his name implies, he is a product of the horses being evacuated together for Hurricane Matthew and he is truly a gift from God.

The culture, history and heritage that the Marsh Tacky represents belongs to all of us and it should be celebrated by everyone!
