Young stock (weanlings and yearlings) seem to be the ones that are not selling. The ecomony and the closing of the slaughter houses has really had an impact. Well broke saddle horses still demand a pretty hefty price though, at least the ones I see on the ‘net. Of course, they might not be selling either.
Just a note to update. Lace went on her first trail ride today. Bob says 2-3 miles only. He rode Prez and Troy rode Lace. Her only scarey moment was when the neighbor’s (at the end of the street) horse ran up to the fence wearing a fly mask. After her tantrum last week, I doubt Troy is relaxing much on her yet though.
