#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#OK, so I am having a little trouble deciding what to do about all the horses that I have, and the ones that I want. Here is my dilemma. I have a 2 year old paint filly (NOT FOR SALE) and a 5 year old pony mare (MAYBE FOR SALE) and her 1 month old mule colt (NOT FOR SALE) as well as a 3 year old gelding that I am training (FOR SALE). There is a gorgeous breeding stock paint filly that I want to buy, not very expensive, really pretty that I would probably be able to sell easily. BUT I have to board my horses for a while and the place that I am boarding isn't really a boarding stable but he has agreed to allow me to board my horses. There is a catch: he has a stud, and I have a free breeding to his stud (long story) and he wants me to breed my pony to the stud so that she can be in a field next to him without him getting "excited". Which is fine by me, I love her colt from this year, and it would be a gorgeous foal. OK...the dilemma part: If I buy this filly, I'd most likely have to sell my pony, because I can't have that many horses. If I do that, I may not be able to board the filly there because she'd have to be beside the stud and she's not quite 1 yr yet and not of breeding age. He could introduce her to the herd, but it's kind of hard, because they have all been together for so long, a new horse screws up all the dynamics....basically, I dont' know what to do, but I really really like this filly.....aaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhrrrgggghhhh#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Please let me know what you all think, maybe I should forget this filly, maybe I should try to work something out?? Opinions are welcome, I won't get offended....#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#
