Coke & Dawn Boyd
I purchased this beautiful filly from Lanna last fall. I came across her post on fb & I just couldn’t resist reaching out to get more info. Lanna returned my call & took the time to review her breeding program, mind set of her horses, ease of handling & purchase program. I wanted a filly with working cow blood lines as this is discipline I like to participate in. Her Colors with a Streak stud is directly from Color Me Smart so how could I go wrong.
My filly, aka, Coke came with her registration papers, DNA report, in hand & was fully vaccinated & haltered.
Coke has been awesome to handle, she is smart & learns quickly takes everything in stride. She is a yearling now & stands good for farrier, bathes, lounges & we are working on more extensive ground work. She is very catty, athletic with a very calm quiet disposition. I can’t wait to start riding her in her 2 yr old year. I would definitely recommend Nilson Farms & I would not hesitate to purchase another weanling.

Gonzalez & Jennifer Rempel
In the fall of 2021 I found myself on the hunt for a weanling to keep my other gelding company once having to lay one to rest. I've worked with colts from Nilson Farms in the past and loved them so of course I went to their page to look.
Low and behold, LT Color Me Go "Gonzalez " was posted and my heart was stolen!
Lanna was incredible to work with. We kept in touch as he grew and I made payments on him leading up to their delivery date. There was a miscommunication about timing and still they were so amazing when dropping him off.
Gonzalez instantly fit into the family and is so loved by all! He is so extremely sweet, loving, and willing. He is now 1 and ties, hauls like an old pro including backing out, stands for his feet, bathes, and has even been out to see his first barrel race!
He is such a joy to have and loves to play with my other gelding as well as they sleep side by side.
Without a doubt I would go to Lanna for another in the future! 💕

Bradley & Amanda Chramosta
This young man, Bradley, joined my herd last summer, he will be a year in June.
I have had my eye on a Streaker baby for 3 years! He is a beauty, wonderful to handle, and loves attention. He is good with his feet, spray bottles, and all the grooming.
Lanna puts a lot of thought and pride into her breeding program and it shows. If you go out to her farm you can see the care and love that she (and Brad) put into all of their animals.
I have also acquired three donkeys and a young filly(not a streaker) over the years from Lanna and Brad, the best 💜..... sooo definitely recommend anyone check out these babies🦄

May & Sara Yoder
I purchased a weaning filly from Lana in the fall of 2021. She came colour & disease panel tested, papered, halter trained, able to load into a trailer, and well loved.
You could tell Lana gave so much care and attention to these foals and it made the process of basic training so enjoyable.
My filly, May, was all she said she was. So smart, sweet, always runs right to me to catch her, and so far been really easy going to work with.
Streaker throws the ultimate package. Good looking foals, with great temperament and a world champion bloodline that you will always have in the pedigree.
Lana herself was super to communicate with. She sent videos and photos often before she was delivered so I could watch her grow. She delivered her right to the doorstep and we have kept in touch.
I would highly recommend a colt or filly from Nilson farms.

Mick & Kelly Allen of Canoa Farms
At the end of 2020 we purchased this incredible weanling colt from Lanna Tucker (Nilson) of Nilson farms in Ft St John. They personally delivered him all the way to Merritt BC. Mick is still a stallion and is 6 panel tested NN for all disease panels, carries the Cream Gene, the Black Gene. He has the most incredible personality for a young stallion. He has been in full training with a Cow Horse trainer Adam Blackmon and we are hoping he makes the Canadian Cow Horse Futurities in Alberta in 2023. He will be standing at Canoa Farms for AI and Frozen only in 2024 after his futurity year. We just love this boy!!

Scout & Jenn Thiele
I purchased a weanling from Lanna Tucker in the fall of 2021 and I could not be more pleased with him.
“Colour Me Scout” is by their Stallion “Colours With A Streak”, son of the famous
~Colour Me Smart~
My gelding is the sweetest, smartest little dude. He handles everything with ease, I think due to the safe and healthy upbringing he was exposed to at Lanna‘s before coming out here to me.
At a year old now Scout is coming along nicely- he leads, ties, trailers, picks up feet, stands amazing for the Farrier and is a complete joy to be around. This is my second horse from Lanna and if I was going to get another one I would definitely pick up one of these weanling as they are superb.

Hunter & Marina Gieni
I purchased two young horses from Nilson Farms in 2020. The Nilson’s are wonderful people, showing me both brood mares and their stallion. Lovely tour of their beautiful ranch. Not only were the prices very reasonable but it included delivery. My young gelding and filly were delivered to my home on a scheduled date. Both came halter trained and trailer trained making the transition so simple. Last year I decided to purchase another young colt. Unfortunately this young colt did not meet the specifics agreed upon and no questions asked, I was offered another choice or a full refund.
I still keep in touch with the Nilson’s on a regular basis giving them updates on my beautiful horses. So well put together with sound minds. I would have no hesitation doing business in the future. Photos of both two year olds starting training.

Pepsi & Deanna Gladysz
Deanna is just loving Pepsi, she had two months training put on her last year, the lady thought she was starting from scratch, but Deanna had already put the saddle on her and trotted her around with it. She loaded her in the trailer and backed her out, and she totally trusted Deanna. We took her to the dentist to have two wolf teeth removed, she was such a good girl and went in by herself, and came back out with no complaining; the other horses went in & she stayed by herself, without issue. Deanna loves to trail ride, and she will leave and go out by herself around the field with no problem! Pepsi walks out really nice, not spooky & very enjoyable; just what Deanna had dreamt of!

Dandy, Vivid & Laurel Breingan
I highly recommend Lanna Tucker, the owner of Nilson Farms, and her stallion Colors With A Streak. Late 2021 I purchased my APHA mare from Nilson Farms, in foal to this amazing stallion. Because of long distance, I purchased my mare sight unseen; relying on Lanna’s description and her knowledge to make an informed decision. Doing business with Lanna was efficient and seamless. I made my decision to purchase with confidence. Lanna was honest and upfront about what to expect from the mare with regards to her history, training, handling, and her personality. Lanna was completely open and set my expectations well. The mare is exactly as described, with an excellent personality and conformation. I am thrilled with my mare. The mare foaled in June and produced the most perfect filly anyone could ever wish for! The smartest, friendliest, and easiest foal I’ve ever had, with perfect conformation to boot! I would breed or purchase another by Lanna’s stallion Streaker, in a heart beat! I cannot say enough good things… no bullshite! The filly is amazing, and I can see her siblings are as gorgeous (well… almost as gorgeous… I’m a bit partial…). I have the utmost confidence in Lanna Tucker, owner of Nilson Farms, and her expertise with horses. I would not hesitate to purchase another horse from Lanna and Nilson Farms (if only my hubby would allow :)
