Breeding the Finest Gypsy Horses

Fine Gypsy Horses for Sale

Dreams Come True – LexLin Gypsy Ranch was formed in 2009 to develop a Gypsy Horse ranch where quality is emphasized, and the ranch size is limited so that each Gypsy Cob will receive the loving care and attention that we give all the horses under our care.

Lineage is of the utmost importance to us. We will continuously strive to produce Gypsy foals from great bloodlines, and proven Gypsy Horse ancestry. LexLin Gypsy Ranch focuses on breeding the traditional cob type of the Gypsy horse breed that ranges from 13 hands to 15.2 hands in height.

Bees Knees Gypsy Vanner StallionBeesKnees is our premiere Reserve Gypsy Stallion.

Brought over from Tom Price's Gypsy herd in Wales as our showcase Gypsy Vanner breeding stallion, he arrived on our ranch August 14, 2009. He will be shown in the Feathered Horse Classic this October as well as in the Shelbyville, TN show in April, 2010. Tom Price is quoted as saying, “The BeesKnees is one of the better Gypsy Stallions in the United States”.  As a last note on our stallions, we are blessed to also bring The Midget, The Producer, Sir Maverick, and Gentleman Jack to LexLin Gypsy Ranch here in Tennessee. 

Gypsy Horses for sale

All Gypsy horses offered for sale here at LexLin Gypsy Ranch are handled with love, gentleness, kindness, and concern for their confidence and development to insure that they can realize their full potential.

We will be selling all our Gypsy Vanner foals except for an occasional one or two which we will train for riding and driving horses. The horses we offer for sale will not be culls, but just the product of correct mares and outstanding stallions. We will enjoy raising the Gypsy foals properly, enjoy their childhood, and prepare them to go to good homes to be shown, bred, or just enjoyed.

The Gypsy Horse, Gypsy Cob, Irish Cob, Irish Tinker & Romany Horse

Gypsy Vanner is one of the most popular names for the flashy Gypsy breed here in the US. Around the world these horses are known by a variety of other names such as: Gypsy Horse, Gypsy Cob, Irish Cob, Romany Horse, Irish Tinker. These horses were originally bred (and are still bred) by Gypsies in the British Isles for generations. Their temperament, size, and style make them great show horses as well as family horses for many people here in the United States.

The Gypsy breed is relatively rare in the states but is starting to be noticed by more equestrians and breeders. The highlight for many US breeders is a trip to Appleby to purchase horses offered for sale by Gypsies at the famous Gypsy Horse Fair each year. LexLin Gypsy Ranch purchased some horses at the fair in 2009 as well as imported  Gypsy Cobs with outstanding bloodlines, conformation, sterling temperament, movement and expression from the well known Gypsy Horse breeder Tom Price in Wales.

Breeding the traditional Gypsy Cob type for show and pleasure

We wanted to do something different with this ranch, raising top quality foals from recognized world class Gypsy mares and stallions. We want to keep the operation to a size wherein we can spend time training and nurturing each individual horse to maximize its comfort and happiness and desire to work with its human friends.

We will be showing some of our horses, but the purpose for which this ranch was founded is for our family to enjoy the breeding and riding of our Gypsy Vanner horses and appreciate the beauty, intelligence, and gentleness for which Gypsies are famous. If you are looking for a horse that is known for soundness and sanity, that will be a faithful companion to your family, and is incredibly versatile, the traditional Gypsy Horse may just be the perfect horse for you! 

Gypsy Horses excel at most every discipline in the equine world, from trail riding, to competitive driving, to dressage and many other equestrian disciplines.  The Gypsy horse is truly the horse for all seasons of life if you want a magical looking, strong, compact horse that your whole family will enjoy.
