How much would you expect to pay for coloured filly cob?

[wench]

About 14hh, 1 yo, reasonably marked, and reasonably put together. No outstanding bloodlines, father was a racehorse, mother ID.

300

Round this way - quite a lot. They love coloured cobs down here!

 

[wench]

What would you class as a lot? 1k? 5k? (doing some research!)

If it was a proper true to type gypsy cob with feather, good conformation and well know bloodlines it could be anything for £2500 to £20,000.

As yours isn't a gypsy cob it would depend of how good her markings and conformation were, her parents competition records, her expected height and amount as bone and her temprement. I would have thought an absolute minimum of £800.

Hmm - seen a few sold at the pony sales and they usually go for between £400 and £600, older ones for more. The sheer fact it's coloured seems to send the price rocketing, the quality of the animal seems to take second place. Astonishing really.

surely it cant be tb x ID if coloured, but be something of another breed in there?.

 

[wench]

theres prob a bit of something else in mum

I bred a decent coloured colt from my Gypsy cob (tri coloured) mare, by a bay warmblood, I had people begging me for him, and eventually sold him for 1500 as an 18 mth old, that was 6 years ago... Everything I have seen with half decent conformation even without the 'bloodlines' is going for at least £1000.

 

[littlemisslauren]

Maximum £300 around here....

Around this way, down south, I think you could ask between £500 to £1000. I’ve been keeping an eye out for something similar but a bit bigger on coloured contacts.

Seems to depend a lot of how big they're going to make - I could have bought a yearling for 500, had i wanted something under 14.2. As soon as you hit that 15hh+ mark the price jumps - I couldn't find a single coloured cob to make 15hh+ for under 1500 two years ago when looking.

 

[Shysmum]

My boy is a gypsy cob, bought as a 2 year old for £800... now worth at least double, can't believe it !! Not that he's ever going to be sold (poor sod).

I know theres a site called Dragondriving that sells coloured cobs at reasonable prices and sometimes other breeds also,maybe have a look on there,i am sure the average is anywhere from £300,just a thought.

You wont get a decent filly for £300 to be honest your looking at £600 plus for a nice coloured yearling or more. Dragon and Drive is good for cobs.
