Information
Penncross
Ranch is a well known breeding facility of superior Paint and Quarter
Horses. Penncross Ranch was established in 1986 by Penny Cates,
and is operated year-round basis by Penny Cates and Kenneth Davidson.
Penncross Ranch is located near Kilgore in the piney woods of Northeast
Texas. Honesty, hard work and the commitment to breed for the utmost
in quality are the cornerstones of our business.
We
are quite proud of Penncross Ranch and our facilities:
- Insulated barn which houses the
stallions and show horses.
- Mare motel boasts 46 14'x16' stalls
with solid 4' walls of tongue & groove lumber.
- Covered round pen.
- 9 runs for those horses needing more
freedom to move around.
- 3 covered paddocks for smaller groups
of horses.
- 4 large pastures with woods for
shelter and shade.
- Exercise paddock for weanlings or
mares with foals
Each
barn is equipped with timed fly spray system to maintain a stress free
environment. We feed freshly crimped oats and irrigated alfalfa
hay from New Mexico twice daily and of course fresh water and minerals
are always available.
The
breeding room is conveniently located in the mare motel. This
eliminates as much stress as possible on the mare and foal during this
critical time. During breeding, the foal is confined in a
separate stanchion next to the mare but can still reach out to her for
comfort and security. All breeding is done by artificial
insemination.
Several
stallions, representing some of the finest breeding in both the Paint
Horse and the Quarter Horse industries, stand at Penncross Ranch.
Continually producing quality halter and performance horses in both
Paints and Quarters will always be one of our main goals. We are
quite proud of each and every stallion we stand and we have faith that
each of our stallions will live up to our expectations.
