Rocky Bear and Bits & Bytes Farm owner - Elizabeth
This Web site was created to tell the stories of the Off-the-Track Thoroughbreds Bits & Bytes Farm has sold. The Mission of Bits & Bytes Farm is to help sellers (of Thoroughbred racehorses for sale) to find buyers who have the ability to transition these horses to new careers. We offer assistance and guidance to make sure the horses we sell are successfully placed. Our Success Stories are proof that Thoroughbred racehorses make great sport horses and family members when their racing careers are over.
When a horse is purchased with the assistance of Bits & Bytes Farm, we require the new owners to stay in touch and provide us with updates. These updates are posted on our Success Stories pages so that the sellers of the horses know that their horses are doing well and have not gone back to racing or been slaughtered. The sellers care about these wonderful Thoroughbreds and they too enjoy reading about their horses' successful new careers. They often call or e-mail to thank us for finding a home for a horse they bred or trained. To learn more about Bits & Bytes Farm and our mission please visit our Web site at: www.BitsandBytesFarm.com.

Taken’s Chances’ New Mom Checks In!
My name is Laura Boineau and I have recently purchased Taken Chances from Lea Mueller. He is doing great. Chance has a great personality and attitude. I know that Lea had trouble getting and keeping weight on him, so I have been treating him for ulcers. His appetite is great now and he is easily…
Punch is NOT For Sale!
Hi Elizabeth! Great news! We’ve decided to take Chaz (Punch) off the market and keep him. We are thinking about selling one of our other horses instead. I’m very excited to be keeping him, he is such a sweetheart! We’ve been working on jumping small fences and flatwork lately. He is doing amazing but still…
Team Grayboo Takes a Winter Break from Competing
Amanda and Grayboo have had an up and down fall competition season. They finished well at training at River Glen in August. Cross-country was easy for Grayboo but he knocked one rail in stadium. He seems to get a little lazy sometimes and knocks a rail, but he hates to knock rails so he jumps…
Cadence Steps Up to First Show Challenges
I am so proud of Cadence! He was a trooper…after a very rocky start. It took four people two hours to load him on the trailer, which is completely out of character for him because he usually walks right on. This was the first time he’s ever seriously challenged authority, but in the end he did get on. He just was in a very sour mood – charging, throwing his weight into people, even after lunging…finally had to have one of my trainer friends put him in his place and then he loaded. On the return home, he loaded on the second try, no problems.
Punch is Sadly Offered For Sale
Elizabeth, I just wanted to give you an update on Chaz. We have sadly made the decision to sell him. College plans have changed and my parents cannot take care of him as well as my other horses. He has been progressing very well. His feet are completely barefoot and sound! He has been jumping…
Another Happy, Healthy OTTB: Knight Villian
Knight Villian is doing really well. He’s fat and happy, though his mane would probably make you laugh. It hangs down past the underside of his neck, by about two inches, and tail touches the ground. He has a harem of two geriatric mares, a paint quarter horse and a bay thoroughbred, and he is…
