Awesome job with Fable! I've been following your progress. Actually, the foal that was with Fable (a chestnut overo with blue eyes that was in front of Fable in the first swim picture) was bought by the Feather Fund for a girl named Alexis. I believe she is the blonde standing next to the pen looking at the foals. I'm trying for the Feather Fund for my 2nd. yr. You can google it for more information. Just thought it would be a fun fact. You are doing amazingly with Fable! I wish I could buy him!
@AmyNRickyForever well, you go down to chincoteague normally at least 2 days before the auction. This is to scope out which ponies interest you and what i did is that i made a list and took pictures of every pony and sorted them out in my hotel room based on confirmation, height, and temperment. Then from there i made a list of the top ten favorites. At the auction you bid on whichever one is in your list, and can normally take it home that day. The average price is around 1000$
Good luck with him! I remember him wrestling the handlers to the ground. I also bought a colt at the auction who's name is Senzy, and I love him to death. Have a great time with Fable.
@PasoGirl12 haha yeah he seemed to draw quite a bit of attention from the crowd when he did that :) that is great about Senzy! What color? How has training been for him? Maybe we can swap tricks, i'm always up for learning something new!
@xojazzitup422 Senzy is a sorrel paint, he was the last paint to be auctioned off. Training him was such a breeze, he picked everything up so quickly. He knows how to lunge remotely now, he picks up his feet and stands for the farrier and worms. He also learned to load into the trailer and he's turning out to be such a great little pony.
@xojazzitup422 I agree, he loves the snow and is constantly playing in it. I wish I would have known which foal I was bringing home because I would have taken a lot more pictures of him!
@PasoGirl12 hahah i just made a longggg list and took pictures of literally EVERY foal. Our entire hotel room was filled with pictures. it was crazy. i was more drawn to fable so i took a lot of pictures of him.
@xojazzitup422 oh I was absolutely thrilled! I picked Senzy at the auction because of his size. We have a feeling that he's gonna be bigger than my one mare and I'm happy about that because I wanted a bigger pony if I would get one. I'm currently trying to see if any of his natural talents will tell me of his future dicipline. He's a fast little bugger so I'm thinking possibly gaming....but I'm not sure yet. Have you decided what you're going to do with Fable?
@PasoGirl12 yeah! i think fable will be a large pony too (hopefully). But Fable seems to LOVE to jump. he has jumped jumps on his own without us chasing him before, and has monster bucks. there is a saying that the bigger the buck, the better the jump. I hope it's true!
Fable is a pretty pony!! We also bought one at this years auction!!! Ours is a chestnut colt..he was # 57...We love him!! He is such a good pony...I do remember seeing yours and can remember your reaction when the auctioneer said "SOLD"!!!!! Good luck with her!!!!
@runnerman17857 Oh cool!!! they were all just so adorable :) good luck with yours! And hahah yeah, i was excited when we got him, i couldnt believe it at first actually.
you are so lucky!
first of all:
you got a horse! (i would do anything for a horse)
second of all
hes a chincoteage pony! (my favorite breed)

If you don't mind me asking, how does the process of adopting a Chincoteague foal work, and on average, what do they cost? thanks

@PasoGirl12 that's great! Chincoteague ponies seem to be the best, they are such quick learners!
