What kind of horse is cheap?

Yes as Puglover says horse prices are down and this is a good time of year to look for horse that people do not want to feed all winter. As Pug says do consider the cost of the feed and your horse.

Of course there is the old adage, you get what you pay for.

the cost of horses has really got done due to the economy, you can get one VERY cheap right now,(I know a couple people who cant even give theirs away) but thats because the cost to keep one and feed it and take care of one is the issue. Its VERY expensive and not just for that, but vet bills for a large animal is extremely high too…(even horses need vet care)

a black one white creamy white spots. that would be pretty!!! but I don’t know any names of horses execpt stallion and mustang!!! or shetland…

You can get them cheap (or free) here in Montana…hay cost so much this year, that people are litterally giving them away. Once you have one, tho…nothing is “cheap”…Vets, feed, tack…everything is very expensive. Hay cost me $500 a horse this winter…grain is $80.00 a month…you have to have a tank heater to keep water thawed for them to drink out of a trough…heater $50…trough $100 to $125…see? They aren’t cheap to keep.
