Where the heck do you live that you can get a house for $35K?! Here half a million isn't uncommon.

I plan to buy a young filly and I'd like to spend no more than $20K. I have seen some gorgeous fillies with great bloodlines for 18. I am picky when it comes to Gypsies.
I am a conformation snob and know what I like. I like the traditional black and white, lots of feathering, apple butt, short back, etc. I prefer a black head with a white blaze or star and a black and white mane and tail or solid white.
Latcho Drom is my all time FAVORITE stallion! But you also cannot beat The Gypsy King! I would take a filly out of either of them in a heartbeat.

wow I didn't know they lived that long!!

The gal we got our horse from has a 35 year old quarter horse! It is the ultimate "old grey mare" - except it's a gelding!!

Ponies live even longer. They can get into their forties.

I grew up with Percherons, they will always be my favorite. Gotta love drafties!

I've had hands-on with Road Sweeper from that sight...he's MUCH better in person...and one of the nicest stallions I've ever met!

They have one of Lion King's sons up for auction! And wowzer, I think I've fallen for Edward their 2005 gelding.

Oh, I know!!! I'd love to go to the auction just to see what those Lion King babies go for. Maybe I should buy a lottery ticket between now and then! I know! My birthday is coming up maybe my husband will buy me one of those horses! LOL! Yeah, right!

I'm not a fan of Vanners. I look at all that hair...

I have three Minis right now and they're great. If I were ever to get into riding again I might go for something like a Haflinger or Fjord.
