geri s asked: I am buying another horse. I have narrowed it down to 2 beautiful geldings. Each one is a very awesome looking horse, and both are equally well-broken. One gelding is sweet and **********. He is an Arab/Bashkir Curly cross. Not at all flashy, just a cute little bay with patches of the curly coat on his body. He is on the bottom level of herd order. He loves to be around people, and has one of the...

hoyo2_99 asked: so they can breed Rags To Riches to 250 mares a year then shuttle her to Australia for another 120. What a nice filly, I just wish she was owned by anybody else in the business.
Actually I’ll re-phrase that, how many people are happy that she’s a filly and there is still somewhat of a chance she may run past her 3 year old year, unlike any other Coolmore horse that’s retired...

horsecrazii91 asked: I own a red roan blanketed appaloosa that we call Duke. My old barn owner bought him somewhere from Kentucky along with two other horses named Snowflake and Grace 2 years ago. I now own Duke, but I want to know more about my horse before I bought him. He is between the ages of 7-9; he has a blaze that looks like a big cross. I don’t know the exact breed but the appaloosa part and...

lisa m asked: Everyone is talking about a shortage of hay this winter which doesn’t worry me because the farms here in Lexington, KY will just ship it in from Canada but it will drive the price up. I’ve just bought a ton for my own horse (not work) and paid $5.25 per bale. Wondered what the situation was elsewhere, how much you are paying and what state?
Thankshorse owning

laughing asked: So I’ve always wanted a horse, basically for their companionship and silly antics, and I would love to ride, but I wouldn’t mind if the horse was just a companion.
I researched them a lot recently and would assume the feeding costs per month be $20-$30 (depending on their weight), and about $20 every other month for feet trimming, and about $40 every month for vet care. (Like covering...
