There has been so much public outcry, especially in the states, that the few times this has happened with him personally, it was a nightmare. So, when many of these farmers sell PMU stock, they either contact people who can buy a group, or take them to horse sales, or they have what is called "production sales". This is just the way it is done. Trust me, I would much prefer having the people contact him, myself, but he will not allow that. Lynda

This message is from: "Sher Bechtold" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Good Morning, All! My name is Sher and I live in Western New York State. At the ripe pld age of 52, I've puchrased my first Fjordhorse. His name is BDF Icemann, and he is such a joy! We have been "bonding" since his arrival in October 2002, and Icy is starting to be more like one of my dogs than he is a horse. He follows me all over the paddock, and would rather be with me than with his paddockmates, who are not Fjords, by the way. It's fantastic to see the trust in his eyes and to have it show in his manners. I have a question concerning the PMU mares. Why couldn't individuals contact this "farmer" and buy a mare or mares from him outright, since time is of the essence? He would probably appreciate all the interest, and might delay his shipping them to slaughter if he had enough people who wanted one or more of them, but who had to scrape the money together for the purchase. This is just a question, not a flame or anything. I never write to these forums because some people are so sensitive, and I always choose my words carefully. But this thread caught my interest, and for the sake of the mares, thought individuals could contact this guy personally. Hope no one at UEF is offended or insulted.
