A friend has just rung me to ask how much she should sell her foal for. I couldnt put a value on it as it cribs.
It's a very correct foal out of a TB mare by a Donnerhall line dressage stallion. As far as I'm aware the foal has cribbed since at least 8 weeks of age - for whatever reason - the mare doesnt.
Foal is coming upto weaning and she would like to sell it
a) Would anyone buy a foal that cribs
b) what value would you put on such a foal
c) would you investigate possible causes of the cribbing first
Would appreciate anyone's comments on here as I've never had to deal with a cribbing foal.
Thanks
