How much is this horse worth?

i was just wondering what this horse whould be worth (or how much you whould pay for it) IF i were to sell her. She is a Six yr old AQHA mare she is sorrel with roan in her flanks and white at root of tail. she trail rides and has seen about every thing on the trails she leads, clips, ties, baths, she loves water(so she will go through water on the trails) she neck riens and does about anything that you ask of her. she is very well broke my 3 yr old brother rides her as well as my 8%26amp;10 yr old brother and my 7 yr old little sister she is verry gentle.





This is her pedigree link below:

She looks differnt now that all of her winter hair is off and she is alot more muscluar now than she is in those pictures they were taken in january 2008.

How much is this horse worth?
wow this horse sounds amazing!! You really dont find to many completely bomb proof horses.The fact that she bathes,loads,etc. makes her at least $500 but i dont think your going to get much more. The way the economy is down, and it is an everyday color sorrel/chestnut. Maybe if she were like a roan or a flashy paint or appy you might could get like $800!!
Reply:In today's market, maybe $750.





After reading all your answers, I have to say the last two sales we went to NOTHING went for over $1000. Broke, through water, bred to the moon, whatever, if it looked like a normal horse and didn't have a show pedigree with the ribbons to back it there was no value. I'm sticking with $750, max.
Reply:Around here she would probably be worth around $1,000-$2,000.


She looks like she's built a little downhill, but it could just be the way she is standing and the ground (if it's uneven or not).


Try and get a picture of her shed out and groomed nicely, and have her stand square on even ground.


She seems like a nice horse - she's very cute. :)
Reply:1. what software did you make the last pic on (e-mail me at horsegeek194@yahoo.com)





2. I was expecting a different type of horse because you said it was a roan but really it is a chestnet (trust me i show and compete and are curantly 1st place in the state).





3. Because she can go through water and is so broke between $2,000 and $5,000.
Reply:these pics aren't very good for seeing her conformation. maybe she is just standing weird, but she looks pretty cow hocked, very downhill, toed out in front as well. the one good thing is her short back and close coupling. nothing very noteworthy in her pedigree. maybe $800? but that really depends on your area.
Reply:Considering people can't afford food and fuel, horses are being given away free. I would say unless your horse is winning money in shows, it would sell for $0.00.





However, the cost of owning her will be about $100,000 in a Stables, or about $30,000 on your own farm... over the next 20 years.
Reply:Around here she would go for about $500 to $750 and that is pushing it. She has a nice rear but the chest is a lil small. She looks like she would make a great 4H or trail horse.
Reply:She seems a bit thin and downhill(though I cant really tell because she might just be on uneven ground). Too bad I couldn't see her without the winter coat... and her expression doesn't look to happy or interested in you either.
Reply:$500 OBO. She looks way too thin for my liking and just too tiny over-all. Plus the horse market really sucks right now and horses with great pedigrees are practically being given away.
Reply:$2000 at the most
Reply:Does she shed out good?





if so, I would pay $1200 -1600 for her
Reply:2000
Reply:does she trailer load?


does she back out of a trailer calmly?


can you pick up all her feet?


can you clip her?





i can't really tell her confirmation.. she looks kinda downhill?


she sounds like she has a good mind though... but most people want show horses, and they sell for.. geez i dunno... 10 thousand to 80 thousand!





from what i know so far, i'd say 500-2,000 $ dollar range.. depends... some people are just willing to pay more





she's cute and would make a GREAT family horse! =)
Reply:It would be really, really nice to see her without that thick winter coat so we could establish her muscle formation and a photo of her on a solid, flat surface, from the side and 3/4 from the back so that we can see those hindquarters.





Also, for six years old, she is in very bad shape. I can see her ribs and her withers stick WAY up. I'm having a hard time believing she's just six..





In any event, don't expect to be able to sell her for a huge price.


$600 and under.
Reply:If she had a more impressive (not the horse) bloodline she'd interest someone but everything is too far back. I wouldn't breed her so the price just dropped.


She seems to be broke well so you have that going for you but with todays market, you may get up to $1200 for her since she is not grade.





If you do decide to sell, you really need to take pics that set her up properly. Squared off and showing the hooves too.


Make sure the ground is flat and there is nothing that distracts the eye in the background.


Groom up nice, trim around the jawline etc...


The winter fuzzies tend to hinder lookers.


Another plus for a sales pic is to show a child riding. Some people want a safe horse for their kids and are willing to pay some money for them..especially a younger horse.





Good luck!
