So the folks over on California Chromes Home (aka bring chrome home) Facebook group was being extra horrible today. The admin kept referring to Taylor Made as "traitor made" ..at one point the admin said " I'm a chrome fan but not a fan of the owners or the farms" I basically came out in DEFENSE of Taylor made and also the Japanese breeding farms and was ultimately banned...so what have I done? I've created my OWN California Chromes home Facebook group. We can support the horse at stud in Japan, keep track of mares bred to him and post pics and race results of his offspring...My biggest rule is that members RESPECT the farms...you may not agree with decisions made regarding their horses but please respect the farms. .oh and my biggest laugh of the day came from the poster who INSISTED intensely that Chrome MADE Taylor Made as a farm and that without chrome the farm is nothing(I DID respond to that comment with insisting that Chrome MADE Taylor made is FALSE and an insult to northern afleet, unbridled song and all the other SUCCESSFUL stallions who graced those stalls for years prior to Chrome arrival...this same person claimed that with both leading sires CHROME AND Graydar gone Taylor made is financially ruined...I don't buy that..anyway my new group:

Thanks for the new group. Although there are a lot of Facebook groups for Chrome, I always welcome a new one. And yes, I agree that people should not disrespect the farms or business decisions of the syndicate. It's ok to disagree without being disagreeable. Too many people don't know the difference.
