2/2 for INRCHA

Pics of our beautiful Iggy girl COMPLETE WRAPPER x BET HESA CAT. She’s a head turner for sure! And her athleticism, grit, and work ethic are strong!

🌟 Added bonus this weekend 🌟
We not only got to see Kasey and Iggy we caught up with some friends and made some new! It was amazing to see so much talent and collaboration!

Campbell’s Performance Horses was there with Bo, Stylish Double Dee! Hes very handsome and I may have a Bo crush! I watched him lay down a beautiful run AND I got to cool him out. Let me just tell you…..the Campbells and Josie are amazing people and show several stallions. With NO hesitation I recommend them and would consider breeding any stallion they ride/stand. To Zach Beckman and Allie you guys have a diamond in Bo. So excited to be . Thank you!

Post 1/2.
Super exciting weekend at Indiana Reined Cowhorse. This was Iggys first official reined cowhorse show and I’m so very proud! This will be a 2 part post (because FB doesn’t let me post photos and videos together) highlight reel….and yes that cow tried to push Iggy out of the way and yes she’s a beast and stood her ground!

All of this!

As a small breeder I can tell you first hand that those numbers are on the low side. People want a name on the papers that they recognize and who has LTE. Those stallions stand at $3000-7000 stud fees. If they are still showing it will be frozen semen - increases your cost and a lower conception rate

There’s a reason a genuinely broke, sound horse for $𝟕𝐤 is hard to find.

It’s not because nobody knows where the cheap horses are. The math just doesn’t work very often.

Let’s say hypothetically you already own the mare and you have the following invested..

$𝟏,𝟓𝟎𝟎 stud fee
(this is CHEAP btw)

~$𝟏,𝟎𝟎𝟎 reproductive vet work

~$𝟒,𝟖𝟎𝟎 to feed and care for that horse for 2 years

~$𝟔𝟎𝟎 in farrier work

$𝟑,𝟎𝟎𝟎 for 60 days of training

You’re at roughly $𝟏𝟎,𝟗𝟎𝟎 before you’ve even accounted for a single unexpected expense or any training past the very basics.

And that’s assuming the mare catches on the first try, no sickness, no injury, no complications..

𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐚 𝐍𝐎𝐍 𝐈𝐍𝐂𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐈𝐕𝐄 𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐞!

So when you find a broke, sound, useful horse for $𝟕𝐤, there’s a good chance someone is taking a loss.

Those situations absolutely exist. But let’s not confuse a desperate seller’s price with market value.

**Not mine but so worth the read! Let alone most people in today’s market need something with more than 60 days!**
