| I have the following mares, give away to good homes for personal reasons: Rosey - 11 year old mare of unknown breeding. We were told she is an ASH but she is not registered or branded so she could be anything. What we do know is that she is extremely pretty with very nice movement. She is an unproven broodmare but cycles regularly so we don't forsee any problems breeding her. Obviously she comes with no guarantees. She was a rescue 5 years ago, and although she has come a long way, she still needs a handler who is sensitive and calm with flighty horses. She is very well-mannered and easy to handle but will spook easily, not surprising considering her history. NOT a riding horse, broodmare only. I have never measured her but estimate her to be around 16-16.1hh. She is empty, please people you are getting a free horse, don't expect a free foal as well! (rant caused by another website, not this one!)   Hope - 14 year old, grey registered Connemara sporthorse. Hope has been a very successful show horse in her time, but is no longer riding sound due to stifle issues. She COULD be a broodmare, but her cycles are not terribly consistent so again no guarantees. She did foal as a 4 year old. Since then she has only been successfully covered once but did not go in foal. She can be kept in the paddock with a stallion but will not allow him to serve her, must be hand served with a twitch! She would be a good companion/lawnmower, and could be available with her aged gelding friend if someone wanted them both.  These horses will not be given to just anyone. Their new owners must be loving and experienced with a suitable paddock for them, and willing to keep in touch with us! We are in an "unusual" personal situation at the moment, which forces the very sad reduction in numbers of our beloved horses. |
