Below is a list of guidelines that we use for selling our ponies. We are easy to work with and if you have any questions please drop us an email. Prices and availability are to subject to change without notification.
|
| Vaccination
& Health - Health Papers and Coggins Test are included in the
cost of the ponies listed on the Sales List. Any additional tests
or shots are the responsibility of the buyer. We start vaccinating
all of our ponies when they are yearlings for Tetanus, Eastern and
Western Sleeping Sickness and West Niles Virus every May. We worm
our ponies at least four times a year and we alternate between paste
wormers and feed additives. We believe that healthy ponies come from a
good vaccination program, a great diet and plenty of exercise. Our young
mares, geldings, stallions and herd sires are grained and hayed (alfalfa) twice
a day and get plenty of exercise in large pens or runs. Our broodmares are
out to pasture from May to November and we wean our foals from the mares in
September and October. Then our mares roam 60 acres of corn stalks and are
grained daily from November until April, during this time we also hay them
accordingly depending on weather conditions and how much feed is available in
our stalk fields. All of our ponies have year long access to salt blocks
and mineral blocks or tubs, during the fly season we use mineral blocks
with Rabon, an oral larvacide. We start using Kent Rabon
Mineral Block 10 early in the spring and we use it through the fall.
This prevents the development of house and stable flies in the manure of
our treated ponies, but it doesn't help against existing adult flies.

Payment -
We accept cash, money orders, cashiers checks and
personal checks. We require a nonrefundable deposit on each
pony. Ponies will not be held without a deposit. We mark
your pony with the "Sale Pending" label until the deposit has been
received. Once the deposit has been received and funded, we then
consider your pony "Sold". The remaining balance is due in 30 days
or until shipping can be arranged. All ponies must be paid
in full and funds must clear our bank prior to shipment. Payments can be arranged with us, but a minor boarding fee may be
charged.
|
| Transportation -
The buyer is in charge of arranging transportation. We have dealt
with several equine transportation companies and can give you a list of
them so you can get some quotes. We will be posting a list of
transportation companies in the next couple of months in this space for
your convenience. Once you have arranged transportation, please
let us know who you are using so we can talk with them and schedule pickup.
