Location: U.S. | I love looking at all the Weanlings that are for sale. If money was no option, find one that you would buy and post them. Also tell us why you would buy that one. I'm curious what everyone looks for in a weanling. |

Location: OH | I don't buy weanlings but sell a bunch and it is my experience that when buying weanlings people look for good bloodlines and PRETTY. When selling babies, pretty makes a difference. |

| I don't buy babies but sell a few. Here is my favorite filly from this year and the one everyone has been wanting but I haven't been able to part with her yet. There is just something about her that people like.

Actually I would be drawn to this one. Because he/she is by one of your sunfrost studs, and I just love the hip. Also love a dark sorrel. |

Location: Wherever the Army sends my husband | I buy and sell weanlings. I want fillies with good bloodlines and color is just icing on the cake but not necessary. As for selling, mine has color and the bloodlines I like but is a colt. No one is interested so I guess I'm keeping him. |

How is she bred? |

| She is by a son of Special Leader and he is out of daughter of Streaking Six who is out of a daughter of Raise Your Glass. The filly is out of a daughter of Special Show, I was suppose to sell the mare but she pulled at my heart strings and I kept her. |

| For the people that sell weanlings, what avenue do you take? I mean where do you advertise? Do you send them through an autction, ect? Are they halter broke, weaned, do you take deposits until weaning? ... I am thinking of selling some weanling, at this point I have only sold yearling and up...how well do the weanlings sell? |

No, I do not auction any. A lot of times we have people waiting on certain ones and they are sold when they hit the ground depending on if they are a filly or colt. A lot of times I will not sell a filly if it is a certain cross that I have been waiting for. We do not buy broodmares---we breed for them. YES, all of ours are halter broke, have had their feet trimmed and are messed with a lot. IT IS A LOT OF WORK, but it is very rewarding when you see them out being successful. It is almost like seeing your kids out doing well in life. |
