I'll try to make a long story short, my doctors have told me to slow down, and I'm going to see a third on Monday, I just know she is going to say the same thing, so, I need to offer some of my horses. I have entered an on line auction before that has advertised on LB and they are going to have another this fall hopefully. Her is my question, would you as a buyer prefer to buy a bred mare or an open one?
I myself have only bought from the best and open to breed to my own Champion stallion. I have spent thousands of dollars having him promoted, as I have also done with my mares. They all have been shown earned their share, but personally I like to buy open mares. Now my doctors have recommended that I slow down, so I don't want to foal out mares. Would I make out better if I breed them or sell them open? I'm afraid they won't sell even bred then I'll be left to add to an already influxed market here in the east. If you guys have been paying attention to the on line auctions then you know that horses in this part of the world are not selling very well. What you recommend? Any and all help and opinions will be aprreciated. Thank you,
