Ivy Creek's Racing Stock Dispersal

With great sadness, I have acknowledged that I feel more overwhelmed than overjoyed when logging into Final Furlong as of late - due in part to the fact that I’ve increased my herd size and not culled nearly enough. Additionally, a lot has changed over the last year+ in my personal life (we sold/upgraded our house which means more to clean/maintain, a promotion at work, had another baby, and have now become the legal guardian to my niece, which comes with medical/behavioral issues that we are working through). So now, with 5 children in our home (4 of them are between ages 1-6 years) and all that comes with it, my free time is a lot closer to zero than I’d like. I’m hopeful that as they grow older and more independent, I will gradually get more & more time for FF. I’m by no means quitting - I love this game too much - but definitely need to get my numbers down to a less intimidating number so I can better manage things. As a result, I am trying to make some really hard cuts to drastically reduce my numbers. Hopefully my loss is your gain - so many of these are underutilized or ones I would otherwise not be ready to part with.

As I read this I fully went through the “I don’t need more ponies, I don’t need more ponies, I don’t…oooh these are very nice ponies.” I’m sorry that life is getting so busy for you, but it sounds like you’re doing great things for small humans! I’m glad you won’t be leaving though!

I second Rainee’s comments. On all accounts. Here I’ve got a “Spring Cleaning” auction scheduled for the 7th and then I see this and am like, “But…new ponies…” Lol. Best wishes to you as you juggle the craziness of life!

I find it a challenge juggling work and home life with just one small person so I can totally appreciate a lack of time with 5. I’m glad to hear you won’t be leaving though and hope to see you here more frequently in the future.

Oh goodness, that’s a lot. I’m so glad you’re not quitting; RL comes first and it sounds like you have plenty to manage. Hopefully the downsize will help! I will sit back and let the initial wave of bids roll through the auction…might keep me from buying more when I have my own spring cleaning auction coming up.

Glad you’re not leaving, but you really have your hands full! I have too many horses myself so I dare not look at your list😊

The horses in this auction have definitely not been raced to the extent that they deserve, so I feel like there’s a lot of untapped potential under the right hands. Most have been training, though, so at least preferences are known (or at least a lot has been ruled out). Hopefully that helps the new owners to make them successful money earners!

Depending on how many sell, these are the ponies that will most likely be considered for straight retirement to keep numbers under control. I’m really hoping most find a home elsewhere (selfishly - so I don’t have to make those hard cuts). I can pretty much guarantee that I will be gelding any of these stallions who stay, too.

Thank you all for being understanding! Its definitely been a wild (but good!) year in the last 1 1/2 years. I know these younger years are a short season in life, so am trying to soak it in. As always, the years will pass by a little too quickly

Just a reminder that bidding on this auction opened today!

I just updated the above list to show which horses are still available. While most have sold, there are still 14 horses without any bids yet.

Last call! Auction ends tomorrow and there are 6 horses left without a bid. Also, THANK YOU to all who have opened their homes to the others.
