Extremely Old Nag!
The time is rapidly coming when I'll have to advertise the boys for sale so can anyone point me in the right direction for adverts for youngsters please?
Freddy and Harry (the foster boys who you might have seen on here since they came to me at a fortnight old) will be three in March so time for them to move on now. Both TB x cob that should make nice all rounders or hunters with, in Harry's case, a bit of showing thrown in; they'll both be around the 16 hands mark, more ISH types than cobs.
Tonka is coming two, a nice SHP type to make about 15 hands.
They could all go on to far better things that I would only dream of; I say I'll do something then chicken out at the last minute; I'm actually amazed I got around to grading Freda last year! Besides, OH has just taken delivery of 3 Hereford heifers so he's squeezing me out of room which is another problem!
Point is, where best to advertise them please, is there a 'best' place for youngsters? Also, does it really matter that the only facilities I have is a muddy field (it will dry up - about May!) they are unbroken youngsters after all so can't be lunged or anything?
If I'm looking, although I look on the free sites, it puts me off to see the same horse on so many different sites, makes me think the owner's desperate and doesn't mind too much which market they go for although I know that's the wrong assumption about many owners to make so with that in mind, I'd like to be a bit selective which sites I use.
Next thing, of course, I'll be asking for help with the adverts!
