      Some horses were wild and are being sold, practically a profit. And some horses may have had an injury in the past life. Bloodlines could have failed also. Most horses going up for auction, u want to check their legs for strength and to make sure they don’t have an injury or I’ll be spending a lot ($1000-$3000) for a vet bill. I usually feel down the leg, and make sure it’s not swelling

    • @VRio299
      @VRio299 4 роки тому +27

      Auctions are cheap because people take certain risks when buying, for example not knowing the horse's full history/possible health implications just like the bay. They also tend to sell more youngstock, unbroken or completely untouched horses where sellers just want to make a quicker profit rather than keep and train to sell privately which takes months/years. A great place for people like Megan who buy to sell, provided you know what to look for.

      Suave Nini yes I know that but most of them will snack a bit. And I was saying they he just looked so so broken with his head down.
      I rescued two horses from auction who were headed to slaughter. One was a thoroughbred and the other an all black beautiful quarter horse. And they had already been sold to the meat truck when I saw them and I ended up paying him twice what he paid to get them. I’m sure he pocketed the extra.
      Anyhow when I got them home it was so easy to see they had been hit a lot. But they relaxed and went in pasture and their nice warm stall with a foot of soft straw lol. But anyhow when they had been there quite a few months and gained weight and health, they would follow me all over the place. So I decided to saddle up the thoroughbred and he was amazing to ride. And so was the quarter horse. They knew I loved them so much and wasn’t ever going to hurt them. Had the carrier out two days after I got them home and the vet the same day. And they give me such joy. Many times I think that they rescued me. Not the other way around. I tell them all my secrets every day while eating.
      Sorry for the long message. It just warms my heart to see abused animals saved.

      Auction horses are often deemed as not high enough quality or health to sell privately (depending on the auction you go to). Many people dump sick, injured, young, old, weak, medically problematic, green and etc horses at auction and dont care about where they go. They also sometimes receive horses from people who passed away family who dont know enough or cant sell.

      Giorgia Daniela Zonelli sarcoids are like growths that can come up really anywhere on the horses body which can turn cancerous i believe. They have to be removed by a vet, cut out and stitched up. It also may have failed the vet check for another reason. Correct me if I'm wrong on any of the above^ Becky decided not to buy it last time for that reason, and now it was for sale at the auction again...but that a basic explanation

    • @saraaaa1716
      @saraaaa1716 2 роки тому +1

      yes so that is because in England, there our loads of wild and broken in horses and ponies. It is the home of our sport. In USA horse- back riding isn't too popular which results in limited horses and ponies in each auction/sale. People in USA would rather keep the horses and ponies as they are expensive compared to England. Whereas in England since there are a ton of horses and ponies, people can give their horses and ponies for auction if they don't need them, don't ride them etc. Basically, in other words if you have more of something the lesser the value is and if you have less of something, the more the value is. (I am not saying that everyone is like that. There are a lot of people who understand how privileged they are to own horses and ponies.)

    I was amazed how the shetland went for 4 times the price of the two thoroughbreds at the start. If I were there I would have bought both of em😅

    Thanks for the vlog, I found it really interesting as I've never been to a horse sale before. I'm sure I've seen one of the tbs 'chorus of lies' that was featured in the auction you went to selling recently on a selling site. It came 2nd in a couple of its races.

    These auctions are sooo much different than in America. Concept and process basically the same-but the horses are so much better and the prices are s much lower. Even adjusting for the exchange rate.

    • @Kimberly-lp4nh
      @Kimberly-lp4nh 3 роки тому

      I stand corrected. Auctioneer never says "sold" in my limited experience until the horse is actually sold after he repeats the highest bidders price usually three times. The number is said multiple times to let people have a change to still outbid and make it absolutely clear at end to everyone what the final price was.

    I remember my sister got a black connie mare for her 12th birthday from an auction her name was Pearl! My uncle bought her for €900 and when the previous owner dug up her breeding record well they wished they put a reserve on her! We sold her at the same auction we bought her from like 3/4 yrs later for €9,000 cause her full brother was a show jumping horse in Sweden I think and she had sj points!! So yeah always make sure you have their breeding record so you don’t lose out on money 😂😂

    I don’t know anything about horses but I just feel in love with number 9, 18 and 21. Like if I were ever able to own or had enough interest in having a horse I would die to have any of them. It’s crazy how cheap they go for. I saw some people in the comments saying that some of these might were bought for the meat trade, which is disgusting. I wish these auctions had a “no meat industry sale” so that these horses are ensured to have a great long life. (And also that the starting bid would be muuuuch higher for all these horses, so that not just anyone could go out and buy a horse like it’s nothing)

    Yes, carry on auction blogging It's good to see what is out there!
    I've previously brought 2 horses from Tattersalls a piebald cob mare who was my mares companion stay at home companion when I was away competing and the other was a retired because sudden total refusal to go forward anymore with a rider! He was a (ruined) 17yr old Prix St George Danish warmblood dressage horse (wish I could upload photo's).
    Was only planning to come away with a Welsh pony that day but after hearing this gelding's story and the fact the person selling told me that the owner will be giving him to the meat man if he wasn't sold that day, he was also a crib biter and hadn't apparently had any interest in him 😥but there was something about him that I couldn't walk away from, and my gut was telling me buy him buy him buy him... alright then I will and I did!
    I paid £95 him! He was the deal of a lifetime and what a horse he was it makes me well up just thinking about him! He was an emotional wreck but when some heavy-handed bloke had beat you every day since you were 7yrs old and rode you into a dripping sweat and used to collapse to his knees then go down flat out with all his tack still on I'd be a mess as well!
    This bloke had apparently been thrown off of so many yards for riding that poor horse the way he did that no one could bear to watch it anymore and the reason for putting him in the auction was because no livery round his area would take him!

      @JRRnotTolkien you csnt call that out for every auction house across the country even so there's nothing wrong with slaughter as long as done humanely. No difference from a cow pig or sheep

    • @Ella-banfield

      Louise Jane omg are you crazy. Everything is wrong with slaughter. Especially to horses. They all have a purpose.

    • @louisejane8049
      @louisejane8049 4 роки тому +4

      @@Ella-banfield there's nothing wrong with slaughter at all as long as it's done HUMANLEY the yanks suck and monitoring this but UK and quite a few countries in Europe are inspected on a regular basis to make sure very thing is humane. There's no difference from slaughtering a horse for meat to slaughtering a pig, chicken, sheep or cow etc. I wouldn't eat horse but other countries see them as a food source and we don't have the right to judge that! India for example don't eat beef.... They eat horse instead.

    • @thatanxiouschild1182

      Louise Jane I strongly disagree. Usually I say I respect your opinion but slaughter is disgusting. The time mainly horses and cows spend stuck in pens unable to move is revolting.

    I love horse auctions… I got my gorgeous paint mare at auction because that’s all I could afford… she is a wonderful first horse… she put me through the ringer though.
    I’m getting a second horse hopefully this November but this time I’m choosing to. I have enough money to buy a “good” horse but I like to think I’m saving them from going to a bad home or a kill pen when I get them from the auction.❤🐴🐴
