Calling all teenagers

14hh. smaller than im used to but a pretty average height for a fjord : ). my parents are looking for a smaller horse anyways because my younger cousins (who live with us) want to get into riding, but my mom is scared if they fall off of Apollo, who is just over 16hh

14hh is a good size! My gelding is 14.2 and he's a good size for me, I think once he's super broke he'd be a good size for my siblings too!

Night everyone! see ya tomorrow!

actually 2k is really cheap especially for a breed like that...

is he broke? I got my 6 year old gelding for 1500 and he was just halter broke and could do a little bit of ground work.

Goodnight Sparrow!

That's good! I was a bit worried since I haven't ridden anything under 15hh and 2 years, and have grown a bit since then.
And my mule is even taller, he is a shire mule and is almost exactly 17hh. He's also a hard keeper. ever since I started pitching in and paying for some of my horses feed, their feed bill makes me cry

His listing says so. he has basic ground work and even a bit of jumping, but I guess I'll find out if we end up going Sunday

yep, my mom might bring my aunt, who is an equine vet, for a once over. She lives like 6 hours away so we don't know yet but it'd be great if she could come! we definately plan to ride as long as he is healthy. he looked fine in the add we just want to be sure before I get on him

very little feathering and it's very scraggily but yeah

That would be good if she goes! Do you mostly ride English or western?
