    Tips for selling?

    How can I go lower than "$750OBO - ALL offers considered"? I cannot keep them any longer, as I am moving across the country this summer... catch is, of course, that I also need some kind of money from their sales to survive the move... :no:

    Tips for selling?

    Two nice horses for sale for months, and not even a bite... I wonder what I am doing wrong? I priced them at "market value" last summer and got no interest... wanted them gone before winter so I dropped them WAY down... have had no interest and here comes spring. They absolutely must be gone by...

    Chihuahua - owners/breeders?

    Wow... thank you all for the great information. They do sound like the breed for me... however, I am having to do some soul searching as to whether or not this is the right time in my life to bring a little one into it.... as much as I want it... I am unsure.

    Likit horse toys

    Love 'em. Some horses are more into them than others....some prefer other flavours. They are best if hung in the middle of the stall so they cannot brace them against a wall to bite chunks off of.... Ive never had anyone seem sick from them though, even when then consume half, or more, in one...

    Chihuahua - owners/breeders?

    I am toying with the idea of bringing one of these adorable little dogs into my life... I am trying to find as much information on them as possible... with what I have been able to find so far, they do seem like the breed for me... are there any illnesses/ailments that are prevailent within the...

    Pregnant mare

    She's only 10... I've had her through 2 previous pregnancies and dont recall such a drop in weight... she's out 24/7, but of course there is no grass this time of year. She gets 3 meals a day... a quality grass/alfafla hay.... 2 cups of a "maintenance horse" pellet, 3 cups of a broodmare/foal...

    Geldings

    Buyers/Show people: Do you show geldings? Yes! I am more inclined to put extra effort into training a gelding to show in more events because that is their "job"... they are not earning awards to increase their own value as a breeding horse (such as a mare or stallion is)... they are increasing...

    Pregnant mare

    Have you ever had a pregnant mare... perhaps one you didn't know/expect to be bred... drop weight (without a decrease in feed)?

    Some very rough video

    That would be so neat.... to basically watch the process from an "amateurs" point of view... :lol:

    For those who wanted pictures

    Do you notice a significant difference/improvement with that type of collar? And if so, in what ways, specifically?

    Your thoughts on selling stallions...

    Andrea, that is very true.... but it did happen to me (not for $7,500 of course, haha).

    Your thoughts on selling stallions...

    I can definately understand selling a colt, as a gelding, to a home that is then going to show and promote the horse... that looks GREAT for the breeder and I would be all for that. But what about... if the offer is from a "pet home"... they want to take your AWESOME stallion/colt and geld him...

    When it's -20 below outside (-40 with the wind chill factor)

    Nothing. I dont even have the option of keeping them in a nice warm barn when it gets that cold. They have a run-in, there is a heater in the water, and I give them extra hay inside the shelter. I'd certainly never blanket and take away their natural defense against the cold. I love seeing how...

    Leather vs. Synthetic Harness

    Leather... call me a traditionalist... :bgrin

    I need a new computer

    I had an HP and it was terrible, tons of problems... in fact, nothing but! I now have a Toshiba Sattlite (laptop) and LOVE it. Have had it for almost two years and it's fantastic, likely wont ever own anything else (unless I have to go Mac for work in a few years). Wanted to add... we have a...
