alrighty, people have been busy here. I've just read through everything written since my previous post & edit, and I have to say that you are not making things any better for yourself.
You have just given people a whole bunch more reasons to be down on you, and you have me thinking that I was right in what I was thinking about you in the first place, back when that other thread was first posted.
I could give you the benefit of the doubt, that maybe you really didn't know a lot about horses & with you not having a family background in horses, just knowing what to do for a thin horse isn't as easy for you as it is to many others--I could be convinced of that one. But then you advertise yearling mares being bred....and post about how it just happened that way and in any case it's a matter of choice...no, I'm sorry, I would have to say now that I definitely would not ever sell a horse to you. Yes, accidents happen, but I don't get the impression that you see anything wrong with a yearling filly getting bred, and I have the feeling from the way you write that you won't much care if every yearling filly on the place happens to get bred, and it doesn't sound like you've taken any steps to make sure that it isn't likely to happen again???? You've spent so much money on some of your horses, perhaps you should spend some of that money on cross fencing your property so that yearling fillies and stallions are kept apart??
Let's see--you bought your horses, decided you had too many so sold off a few, then got your feelings hurt and put them all up for sale, but now you're buying other ones? I'm sorry, but do you not see how others could decide just from your words that you are not a good person to sell to? You've done yourself more harm than everyone else combined.
