What even is this?

Too little time, too much to read.
I think the white on his nose makes it look even more odd than it is.

@shortstuff99 have answered your question↓↓
The comments seems to focus on the front end, but I think the head is cute, it's the strange looking Flat Stick tail which bothers me. I was convinced the tail had been photoshopped until I googled and found e.g.:
By the way, hair as hair, if it really does make the mane and tail grow back thicker, how come all horses who have once had a full body clip doesn't look like overgrown wooly Shetlands? You know, like this but much bigger

Am I the only one who thinks the tapir foal is actually pretty cute? I don't like the tail clip either though.

Nope, I think it's lovely! I quite like a roman nose, and I bet his would be softened a lot with a mane and forelock.

Good News, Temu are now selling anti collision horse boots and advertising them on Facebook.
Just what I've always needed and I have no doubt they will fit any horse.

I notice there's a tree growing up through it. I'm wondering if it would be better to market it as a source of firewood?

I’d like to know if it has central heating, hot shower and wi-fi installed. It probably won’t need a tracker as if you did move it you’ll leave a trail of bits to follow.

Is this as daft as I think it is? Or am I very out of touch with prices for this?
12k for a well-bred but 16yo mare that has essentially not been ridden for the past few years and is sold from the field?
'Grade 1, RID 16.2, 16 years young, hunted, jumped, hacked and beautiful to handle. Never sick or sorry, barefoot. Has been living in a field and occasionally hacked over the past few years as her rider completed her studies.... With full time work placements now calling, xxxx is looking for a new home, ridden and/or as a beautiful top quality brood mare. Will be sold from the field… 12k'

Daft
Could be 100 things wrong with that mare if they don’t let you ride before buying

I wondered if there was an extra nought accidentally added on the price
.She’s a Janet George bred ID, and is related via her maternal grandsire Lady’s Tralee Raj to my own wonky mare, who is by Raj.

Situation normal
I think they initially marketed (what was a very good horse) at about £3k originally. But then were cautioned about her being too cheap and flogged on again for a higher price. If you read the whole fb thread it makes it quite clear.
Undoubtedly she’s priced far too high, and they’ve done her no favours by not keeping her going. But hopefully someone will make a reasonable offer and a very good home.
There’s a lot of interest in her from the Indigo fraternity

I wasn't sent the whole post - now found it and it makes more sense.

interesting that they’ve managed to label left and right, but not top and bottom!

Just saw a mare for sale, in foal…….absolutely no idea what to (history unknown). You get the suprise of finding out apparently!
Looks kind, sad really

Comparing that boot to the size of the hand holding it, it looks like it would be a suitable fit for a small dog, not a horse.

That's what I thought. The photo of the horse wearing them must be photoshopped.

Damn, I was looking for full leg boots to protect the outside of her legs. And it looked so realistic!

He’s been for sale for quite a while (unsurprisingly). If you saw it on the same site as I did there is also a 20 year old horse up for sale tooHave just seen an advert for a middle-aged horse who is terrified of traffic and can be used for schooling only, they want £7500

26yo horse for loan out of work for awhile
I can’t imagine he would come back into work easy at his age

COMPANION ONLY !!!!
[**] is a 14.1hh standardbred x Welsh, she cannot be riddden due to poor confrontation with her back legs and could make it worse. She is in no pain at all, there’s just no room for her atm. She is the sweetest mare ever has never done any harm but she can be a bit mare ish when she wants to be but she’s an absolute dream to have, lives out with 2 geldings at the minute, she’s out full time aswell ideally wanting 2
but a bit less is negotiable. She has to go to the right home since she is very loved.

You can't ride it, you can't breed from it and they want two grand... wow...

Did it say any background on what country the horse came from or age or any information why it can't be ridden or breed from the horse were there any photos

Most sensible people wouldn't breed from something that has such poor conformation it can't be ridden.
