Visiting VS Code Red at his new home, Highpoint Performance Horses!

[@loveyoumost3262]

It would be cool to see a video where you walk us through the process of standing a stud and a day in the life of a stallion station

[@ZiggyZ79]

There is alot to that as in alot of paperwork and she wouldnt be able to show everything as it is alot as she can't show some stuff as in how Vs Code Red is collected and other stuff but I am sure she would if she could but however she has talked about some of this stuff in some of her videos

[@onion6foot]

You might read the book "Stud". I found it amusing.

[@ZiggyZ79]

@@onion6foot I am not sure if that is a book about horses or not but I , myself grew up with horses so I've seen how stallions breed but thank you

[@jenruiz7606]

She said in todays video she is.

[@ZiggyZ79]

@@jenruiz7606 I watched that but she might not could show him being collceted

[@sherriwastweet6950]

That was an awesome video! Waylon looks great! High Point is like a freaking zoo with million dollar horses!!

[@2kemason]

Yeah , that IS Wild❣️

[@leannemcrae8132]

I dont know if you are aware but you have been beaming with joy ever since you bought Waylon and when you are around him or talk about him your smile is ear to ear. So incredibly happy for you and your family! Can't wait to see what the future holds for you all. Jonathan was so proud of you and genuinely happy for you when he realized you had the winning bid. You definitely got a good one. As a fellow horse woman and animal lover I can almost imagine what you must be feeling, so exciting! Anyway, wish you the best. Congratulations!🎉🎉 Love seeing dreams come true.

[@DesertRat22]

He’s such a magnificent horse. Congrats on getting him.

[@Rosietoes65]

Waylon is such magnificent beautiful stallion. I'm so happy for you Katie.

[@Lonesome__Dove]

If i had a million dollar horse he'd be sleeping in my bedroom w armed guards lmao. This place looks like an amazing place and the perfect place for such a great stud ❤

[@TDUB1176]

I know....sleeping in my bed!!!

[@HummingbirdBrown]

So many amazing animals. I could look at Wayleen all day everyday. He is just so stunning.

[@shellieburgoyne9555]

The most exciting thing in the world is being able to briefly attain your favorite animal for a: pet, pictures, snacks and kisses 😂😘

[@sandcatlynn]

So amazing!! I had to laugh at the treat from your mouth, I do that too. My brother's pup looked embarrassed for me lol.

[@boerdandexperimental9370]

SO amazing! So happy for you! So Code Red and the stud colt are called Waylon as barn name? Imagine that will be a lot of fun. XD

[@CassidyYates]

Such an amazing place! I’d never want to leave

[@hmwhited]

That was awesome! Looks like Waylon is going to be well taken care of! ❤

[@nanahaney1625]

Thank you, Sunshine! Loved seeing Waylon and the giraffes!

[@dianalester1351]

Oh My, I Love, Love the Animals, Thank you for sharing all of the interactions with them!

[@melissashaw3583]

Probably won't see your answer, but are you going to bring Waylen home at some point? Why is he at Highpoint? Sorry, I'm just curious. Love your videos and the way you go over everything is so informative. Thank you so much!

[@ImaLooker9]

My guess is that he's still standing at stud/possibly offering live coverings there. I'm not sure Katie has done collection before and not everyone wants to or has the facilities to collect. Just my guess though

[@jeannec2714]

He won't ever do live cover. Strictly AI but you're right, the greater majority of stallion owners keep their studs at stallion stations. Actually standing a stallion requires specialized facilities, equipment, and staff.

[@ImaLooker9]

@jeannec2714 Yup exactly. I'm glad to hear he doesn't do live covers though. Just too dangerous for the horses.

[@notyourmama7059]

I am glad you asked because I was confused about owning him, but not having him with you is strange to me.....

[@tammyirwin703]

She stands him at high point because there facilities are for collection Waylon and shipping his semen along with the contacts of mares being breed to him. Katie doesn’t have her farm/barn set up to do any if that just yet and it makes the best sense to stand him where he is used to being stood at.

[@taulbeesgurl]

I love that you're taking us on this journey!!! I'd love to see some of the other stallions at high point.

[@100bibina]

Thank you for posting on you tube. I have to go off FB because I get so much crap. You and Ohio dairy farmer were my faves to watch

[@100bibina]

When do you get to bring vs code red home

[@RobinKazee]

I Love the entire Video of your time at High Point in Texas. Looking forward to more High Point Videos. Looking forward to your 2023 Dove Season Videos.

[@Lonesome__Dove]

Oh they have a tapir! Such cool animals! They're so gentle ❤

[@coreywest1183]

That is definately a beautiful facility! Who would have though you would find exotic animals on a horse ranch. Waylon looks great and so relaxed. Super video thank you Katie!

[@virginiaspeciale8641]

Now THAT is a big gopher!

[@caririegler5749]

What a magical place. ❤

[@Miauwies]

They have all the animals I love so much. How awesome. 😻 With the lady standing next to Waylon you could really see how big he is, wow what a handsome boy. 💜

[@MsRahvin]

This is crazy, I have lost count of how many times I have driven by this place and not known there were exotics there. Waylon is a lucky boy to be in such an amazing place. I know I'm a bit late to this but congrats on making your dream come true.

[@bondlvr8870]

This was an amazing video! Happy birthday Wally Watermelon!!

[@DebbieSvatek]

This is in Texas Such a Beautiful Place I think Waylon will be Very happy there ❤

Hi, Katie, I'm first to watch. What a beautiful facility. I love Wally.

[@ldover0821]

He’s gorgeous and so sweet. 😊

[@darlenedurgan1340]

It's amazing how much Freddy looks like Waylon!!

[@louisesharpy]

How cool Seeing your name as the owner. ❤❤❤❤. Omg. Giraffe s are so cool. You don’t realize how big they are until you are next to them

[@heatherscarfo5920]

Can you do a video of owning a stallion cost and so on? Do you ever think you could get kristen to do a q and a about waylon

[@tammyriley5345]

That was amazing!! Love the videos you share, keep ‘em coming!!!

[@kimgrant9405]

Congrats on Waylon!!!!! So exciting. I share your love for giraffes. Giraffes and Horses!!!!

[@mycrazylifeagainangieeltin5424]

OMG Waylon of course Chef's kiss but I am super jealous of all the other animals. What an experience.

[@tinglelingaling6]

I have always wanted to pet a copybara. So jealous. It is beautiful there, I know he will be happy. Beautiful horse.

[@erintaylor9676]

What a great experience and amazing horses!

[@DianaDyck24]

To see you get so excited over all the animals is so awesome! You and me are so much alike that way!! The smallest things bring so much joy!! I wish you were on the market for new friends lol 😝

[@tmcgowan3174]

I used to run a stallion barn for several years in the 90s. I was just talking about the handling of the stallion. Live cover can be a liability, having mares worth as much as the stallion coming to visit. The insurance, plus the AI set up, & armed security.

[@kaleadreamaremylife7688]

That’s just about the coolest place everrrrrr

[@kimkwan57]

Your videographer is great. And you Booped the Snoot of a Giraffe. How cool is that!

Loving these videos, Katie 🤎🤎🤎

Awesome video. Love the music that you add to the video. Great job, Matt!! Love seeing Waylon.

[@tamarastephenson8985]

Gerald is majestic. Waylon is simply a handsome, gorgeous stud.

[@kymfrancis4612]

I live in Australia & we have English Riding ponies (dressage & show horses), I also judge at Royal & national shows & I absolutely love Waylon, you also have some exquisite mares. I’ve got a soft spot for Quarter horses ( I haven’t owned a QH for many years), I had a very successful QH by Del Mingo, he was way ahead of his time. I’m really enjoying the resurgence of QH in Australia, we want to buy a QH x thoroughbred mare to show as a show hunter but I haven’t seen any that I like enough to buy🤫 I very much like the type of QH that you breed, hopefully we will find the right horse soon. ♥️♥️♥️

[@pegrodgers72]

I just love alll your videos!!!

[@Muttsrus-bk7yd]

Next time u go to high point could you have them take the horses out and let us seee them and some info.

Alao the cappy that does tricks 😂❤

[@michellethompson5438]

Hello Katie im new to your channel and i want to say Congratulations on owning THE STUD the amazing VS Code Red. He is just stunning! And why is he not living at your place? Also i believe you said you live in Tennessee if im correct. I'm also a Tennessee girl i live in West Tennessee. I could not imagine owning a million dollar horse😳 WOW! Look forward to seeing more of your videos and that gorgeous stallion.

[@secretsquirrel7374]

Because he's at a proper stallion facility.

[@shannonhedden]

Katie the next time I would love to see you spend a whole day playing with and caring for Waylon...I want to see him get an attachment for you so he is happy to see you everytime he sees you.

[@katievanslykelife]

We filmed a bathing video from this trip that will be posted soon:)

[@shannonhedden]

@katievanslykelife yep I saw it, I was putting more emphasis on the play with lots of treatos part cause I love seeing horses having fun with their humans.

[@catherinewilkerson718]

Katie, I love how you express such love & respect for all the different animals. However, I’m confused about your love of hunting? Doesn’t it feel bad when you kill an animal?

[@purpledragonfly4]

They hunt for population control and food.

[@PatDiMambro]

what a phenomenal place

[@shannaarneth]

Beautiful facility! How is it they are able to own so many exotic critters? I've only seen them in zoos. Congrats with Waylon! he looks so happy

[@daemonember]

I'm the US it is state dependent on the local laws. Like where I live some of these creatures require a permit. Other states don't need a permit for anything. Texas I think it's a state with few laws on it since I know of pet stores in the state where you can buy crocodilians. So for Texas basically if you can afford it you can own it.

[@Marie.L2030]

Wow who knew slick was so close. That ranch is only an hour away.

[@debbiesears1282]

Just beautiful 🤩 ❤

[@tinayoes6505]

Is Waylon ever going to come live at your barn?

[@patriciahowe5173]

I thought he was your because you won him at the auction and you got to take him to your barn .

[@tammyirwin703]

She bought him for 1 million dollars through that action. She stands him at high point because there facilities are meant for stud collection for breeding etc

[@Kittycat-89]

When will you be able to bring your boy back to your home?

[@smartkid37]

That’s what I’m wondering

[@tammyirwin703]

She could bring him at anytime back to her farm. However, he is a stud and that’s why he is where he is so he can be collected there all the contracts and all that because it takes a facility such as theirs to handle that where Katie‘s barn at home does not have what is needed when you are standing a stud

[@Kittycat-89]

@@tammyirwin703 l didn't realize that he was being collected, I thought that he maybe scheduled to go to different places before he was sold. Thank you for telling me.

[@tammyirwin703]

@@Kittycat-89 you’re welcome!

[@smartkid37]

@@tammyirwin703 thank you for the reply- I guess I thought she’d want him somewhere like that but a lot closer to home than that - seems almost as costly to have to keep visiting him and paying for his stay there as his purchase price

Katie why isn't VS Code Red at your place? Sorry if u already answered this question and I missed it in a video. Also how many of your horses are children of VS Code Red?
