Old horses
Just putting this out there if anyone needs it. If you need to be rid of an older horse that can't be retired, I have a small retirement pasture I can house them on until they pass. My only requirement is that if it is a mare, she is not bred. Other than that, as long as the horse is sold cheaply, I can house him until he passes on. Preference will be given to older horses.

I have a few horses that are above 15 years old. How much are you offering?Abbih wrote:Just putting this out there if anyone needs it.

Re: Old horses
This would be considered a 'service' not a 'purchase'.Horsecrazy15 wrote:I have a few horses that are above 15 years old.

Some of our HWO members offer this, especially on accounts that fast-grind or fast-train, because they have extra room and have no interest in using the horses themselves. It is a quick way of retiring horses and freeing-up room.
Most times, this service requires horses to be cheap or even free. I usually see market sweeps (clean-outs) on all horses over a certain age and under a certain amount (5000), heading for just this service.
I suspect such a service then to be under 5000 purchase price, with the assumption that the horses would not be used, just be retired out.
