Hello,
yes that's what I mean  A Fjord isn't expensive comparing to other horses.
Of course it's in general but for a good Fjord mare (registrated) it's about
45.000-50.000 belgian francs.
One dollar (us) is about 38-40 belgian francs so...; to me thats a
lot of differences.
i saw somewhere on the internet that the price for a breeding is about
1.000us dollar so here thats the price of a whole Fjord mare.( For my mare I
paid 4.000 francs /100 us dollar and the stallion is placed second in
belgium from all the approved stallions)
A colt for sale is about 13.000-15.000 belgian francs.
A gelding about 20.000 fr.

Comparing. A Belgian warmblood horse is about 500.000 fr.

So to me a Fjord is not that expensive. Lucky I am otherwise I could not
keep those furry adorable creatures.
Waauw I love them.

BTW Askeladden will be 3 months tomorrow. That goes quickly.

Lot's of Fjording  from sunny an hot Belgium (not so hot like th US)

Hello Griet .. Just wondered whether you meant that Fjords are not
expensive
in Belgium (compared to other breeds?) or that you think $5-6,000 US is not
expensive, as a price for a Fjord or other breed?.

dear carol,  i thought of another fjord source for you to check out.  go to
the norweigen fjordhorse registry.  then click on the canadian registry.
they have some for sale there.  if they are too young, connect them anyway
and ask about older horses.  sometimes you can find one this way.  i got my
second horse from canada.  no problems and i would do it again.  denise

  The only ones I
  find for sale are VERY young and TOO expensive (6,000 and UP!).  I know
  Fjords are pricey, however I'm interested in an older guy who is ready
to
  semi retire, or a sweet driver who is not show quiality.  I've got
$3,000 to
  spend
 
   Hi Carol T.
 Wishing you the best of luck in your search...I'm sure you'll find
 the right fjord for you, there are many to choose from out there. It all
 just takes time and patience. Have a great time at BDF, in Nova Scotia.
