We have never had a broodmare look this bad

Well I guess my standards are much higher because these mares look horrible and emaciated to me.....I have a hard time when people think that just because a mare is a broodmare she can look like this...They should be cared for better then the average horse to produce quality stock.We bred for many years and our broodmares looked just as good as our show horses.
Sorry but when it comes to lack of care I have a hard time sitting quiet

Isn;t it against forum rules to go posting someones horses and making assumptions about them.

Do you have permission to post these links. Have you seen the horses in person to see what actual condition they are in?

The OP does not care about forum rules. She has repeatedly made that clear. I personally found it in poor taste that almost every horse the OP has posted on HGS to sell or help is not a horse that she personally owns or has taken photos of.

We all know horses that need a new home. I think the mods might need to consider adding a rule that anything posted for sale must be owned by the OP.

With the market as saturated as it is where do you draw the line if anyone can post ads for any horse they find for sale on the internet?

We do have the rules that it must be a horse you are own, are interesting in buying or have permission to post about.. its the rules in critique, but it is not just for critique, posting someones add to pick or criticize them is not allowed.
