Yes he is quite cute! good bone and limbs from what i can see, looks a little short in the neck and back, but if photo is only of him 5days old then im sure this will improve.
Not wishing to be rude, but it says Gypsy cob. Is it just a description or is it a Gypsy cob?
Not wishing to be rude or nasty - hard to come across as you wish on a computer! Are you interested in buying it?
I don't know how areas vary but it is a bit expensive for around my location. Also if you are looking to show it is a bit too much like what they come as around here.
Only being honest, and i realy am not being nasty. Colourds are my passion. I - put politely - work with the travelling community and there are 100's like this one. If i was buying to show i would look for something different to the norm.
Sorry i don't normaly speak my mind and do not wish to be offensive. Yes it is lovely, all horses are to me, in my line of work i deal with this type all the time and it doesn't stand out. As a pleasure horse, lovely but they do sell for £300.
I feel awful now, sorry.

no honestly thats why i wanted peoples views!
its not for me anyway a friend of mine is interested in it and asked my view on it so i thought i`d ask you lot
i did say i thought it was a bit expensive so glad its not just me
I don't know that much about coloured cobs so I could be wrong.
Surely there are others out there cheaper than that? His confo looks average & not anything that special. Don't know & hope no offence is taken but I don't think he stands out that much.
Sire is nice but Dam is quite ordinary. (If Sire is the Skewbald that is pictured. I'm presuming that is his Dam pictured?)
I think he is sweet..I also dont think he is majorly over priced, id like to know where you can get these coloured foals for 300, even at melton they are going for 650+. Their prices have gone silly, but to be fair it isnt cheap too breed and raise a foal properly.
This type of horse takes such a long time to grow up/even out that its pretty hard to say anything about a 5day old foal! Could turn out looking like that horse in the outshine ad or like the millions of random coloured hairy things you see everywhere. very sweet tho but expensive
So cute, expensive though as others have said. Totally agree that sire is nice but dam is a bit ropey conformation wise. I'd love to know why chunky coloureds are so expensive these days, when I was growing up you couldn't give them away.
