On Friday, I lost my heart horse, Lucy. These are just a few photos I had taken on Thursday during her "End of Life" session.
She was my first pony, my childhood pony. I have owned her for 20 years, since I was 9 years old. She was 27 years old. It was probably one of the hardest things I have...
Bombproof, husband/kid safe, or anything like that regardless of being papered or not are going for big bucks because they are safe. Those type of horses are worth their weight in gold though if you have a kid or partner who is a beginner. Worth every penny to keep a beginner from getting hurt...
Those breeds seem to be expensive in general regardless of location. They are def selling for much higher with very little training. A lot of drafts and draft crosses are as well.
$5,000 around here will get you a started under saddle QH registered or a been there done that grade horse.

In todays market, I would say about $5,000 is the average price mark for a decent horse. We just bought our 4 year cow bred mare for $4,000. She is registered and has worked the feed lots in Oklahoma. She is originally from Texas. As a 4 year old she is pretty laid back and has been exposed to...
Yes I agree. I have owned three off the track and they were athletic as all get out but they required too much feed and time in order to make them a great horse in another discipline for my taste. Also, the bugs made them insane. They had to have fly sheets, etc to be comfortable out in the...
Number one (5 year old mare) would be a nice little prospect. She is built right and a good height for a kid or small adult once broke out. She would make a good 4H prospect or some type of working horse (barrels, roping, etc). She's also registered which is nice. I also like that she has had...
No, I have never seen that! I named her Raven mainly because she was black and it kind of just fit her personality. I can't really imagine her name being different now!
Snagged these photos over the last month or so when letting them out in the mornings. Not a much better view than that. Raven is my black AQHA barrel racing mare and the pony is her little companion we got for her. We will be adding another horse to our herd in the spring!
