Looking for a Palomino Stallion age 2 or older, does not have to be registered, I have 5 paint mares I want to breed to a palomino and I am not interested in the babies being registered . If you have a palomino stallion 2 years old or older, contact me with details and price. pixie123 at roadrunner.com, a picture would be nice. Would consider a yearling.

Someone should find a free/cheap nice flaxen chestnut gelding and offer to sell it to this person as a super rare true-breeding palomino stallion for 5K.

From the way this ad is written, I don't think they'd know the difference. You could make some money and do the world a favor at the same time.

Oh look, they do horse rescue too:

*headdesk* indeed.

Love the "rising helmets" on their rescue's wish list.

At least they seem to know that SEI certification is necessary.

Although I'd love to see that Belgian mare in one of their 10' x 10' stalls. Bet that's a pretty sight.

And did anyone else notice that they're not a 501c3? And that other things on their wish list just happen to include things that any stable needs to run? Like basic equipment?

I got hung up on the "indoor arena". Yeah, I live in Western NY, and I get it... but do you really need an indoor to rescue?

"3 yr old Bay Pinto/Quarter horse Stallion. Very friendly, can be gelded. About 15.2, he's not overly tall but what a personality. Well tempered. Off Spring on site. Never been saddle broke. Extremely smart, patient and a quick learner. He's not afraid of anything jumps and swims. He's a clean slate with no bad habits. Beautiful, sound and utd on shots. Likes other horses. Only serious inquires. He needs a loving home where he will be exercised and used. I'm downsizing but care where he goes. $3,000 or b/o."

How about this 3 y/o unbroke stallion that already has "Off Spring"? He's not a palomino, but maybe the half pinto counts?

**ladybugred** · Jun. 7, 2011, 10:55 AM

"...Not afraid of anything jumps and swims" ...to escape!

"..loves other horses" as he's not gelded, I'm quite sure. Especially thse mares

If it weren't for the faux-rescue thing, it would seem like a pretty decent barn, too. They shot themselves in the foot with that.

Also: "gently used" tack? Come on guys, you're already reaching with the requests for an indoor and a tractor, why not require brand new high end tack? If you're going to ask, go all the way.

I think these 3 things are related.

Cheaters!!! They just copied my wish list. Well, except for the "rising" helmet. I dunno what that is.

**Chardavej** · Jun. 7, 2011, 07:32 PM

You know without Craigslist, some days here on the boards would be, well, boring

**FlashGordon** · Jun. 7, 2011, 08:16 PM

Who are these people? Come on WNY is so small someone has to know them.

Buffalo craigslist is just painful sometimes!!
