Firstly having seen the condition of the ponies, yes, OP did the best thing by them, given she could not provide the care they needed. They came to her in appalling condition, OP realised she didnt have the facilities to care for them, and gave/sold/ (who really bloody cares?) to someone who could.
By the time they have been fed up, wormed, had feet and teeth seen to, they are far from "free" and there probably isnt a huge profit in them either.
As someone who also knows FMC, I would give her any of mine in a heartbeat. I know they would at the very least stand a chance, and if not, they wouldnt be left lingering!
Some people just do not like those who have the spine to call a spade a spade....or perhaps some people just dont like others that show them up for the ignorant prats they are!
 
Seems to me that if you dare question fumanchu, her followers are full of pure vitriol, says a lot for her. She has an opinion so do I, just that I dont have a whole forum behind me. It is free speech, all I am saying is that I dont agree with her practices. People are getting very personal and nasty, please calm down, its only a bloody forum!

Maybe that should tell you something........the fact she has most of a forum behind her....:rolleyes:
 
I don't have cake but I do have a nice rose, which is porobably why I'm finding this so funny. Can't take my drink at all.

Seriously, glad the ponies have been given a chance.

What constitutes a dealer?

I used to buy the odd cheap pony, sometimes from a local sale, sometimes from a local m,ember of the travelling community, break in, bring on tidy up sell. Can't say I ever made money out of it as I fed, wormed, vaccs, shod, spent time and money on until they were ready for a new home. I did it to help theminto new homes and for the experience of handling and starting different type of horse and pony.

Does this make me a dealer?

I once bought a horse from a sal intedning to have it PTS when I got it home. It was in an awful state. Got vet, who suggested we feed him a bit and see how it went. Did all vet said, still got horse 11 yrs on. But had he needed to be pts I would have done.

Well said, and like I said in my earlier post, half off the people don't know her but are sucking her a*se.
 
There's only so much you can put up with when people keep on and on about a so called saint. She's just a dealer and takes ponies in that are in bad condition from what I see. Big deal plenty off people do it.

Your rose isn't helping your spelling much, either!

Without mincing words. FMC is a blunt old-fashioned horsewoman who buys up the unwanted dregs of the horseworld and offers them a certain future - if they have what it takes and respond to handling etc they are handled and sold on, if they have physical or mental problems they are taken by her to slaughter - most of them were on their way there anyway before they came to her. Sometimes FMC gets in ponies that she shows photos of, the difference she makes to them is dramatic. FMC has a vast wealth of knowledge which she is willing to share. She cba to wrap it up in velvet though, it's said as she sees it.

Several different sorts of people dislike her. Those who want to be seen as the ultimate source of advice, those who want to be seen as the ultimate rescuer, those who ask idiotic questions, those who ask sensible questions and then don't act on the good advice given, and of course those for whom every equine life is sacred.

You'll find that the majority of balanced down-to-earth people consider her advice sound and her attitude understandable.

shame shes banned then - as a novice id have loved her advice
 
Nobody was getting nasty?? until Pastie2 and Ucmeicu and I take as insult what monster has said about most of the posts who like Fumanchu. No we don't know her personally and I'd say a lot of us have taken on board things she has to say. not every horse or pony is going to be ideal riding stock for several reasons, at lest from past posts she's got the guts to say it how it is and yes an awfull lot go for slaughter. But that it how has been over the centurys and will continue so,till we no longer breed animals of any sort, hopefully the human race first.

I also have the guts darling to disagree!
 
So Pastie2 do tell us your real problem with Fumanchu and let us decide for ourselves. As soon as her name is mentioned You and Ucmeicu and now Monsters are on the post faster than an eye blink. SO DO TELL AND LET US JUDGE FOR OURSELVES. INSTEAD OF TAKING NASTY DIGS.
 
I can't believe I didn't twig fumanchu was JM. Duh.

And well, Monsters, surely it's better to think good of someone you don't know, than to start a vendetta against them? Do you know FMC personally? Get off your high horse.
