They are in good condition and it is our expectation that you pick up the foal as quickly as possible after the sale closes. Due to the nature of an online sale, younger foals may not be weaned until the day of load out. This is our policy unless otherwise stated. Loading out: Foals will be available to be picked up immediately following the sale. Arrangements must be made with the individual breeder/seller for pickup and load out. Every effort will be made to accommodate pickup, but it is the buyer’s responsibility to ensure that the breeder is notified of the pickup time and shipping details. Please give the breeder as much notice as possible to allow for the horse to be prepped for shipment. Special arrangements can only be made with the individual breeders in regard to transportation.
