Wanting to trade Fino for Peruvian--what is she worth?

Alienta de Fresca Aire

2005 registered Paso Fino filly, currently nearly 14.1 hands, will be tall! Extremely cute head, good legs, hard hooves. Picks up all four feet, wears a fly mask & fly sheet, easy keeper, bathes, worked on clipping once. Decent ground manners, she's a real busy-body, needs some more work with being caught & learning to stand tied, but she is just a baby! She also loads & hauls very well. VERY, VERY smart! Should have good largo speed. She needs a GOOD, forever home, ONLY. Trades on reg. (of equal value) Peruvian fillies or mares, ages weanling to 10, must be sound/sane. I'm located in N.Central WA state but will consider trades from anywhere....as long as I can afford it! =)

Thanks!

Forgot to add her bloodlines!

I'm hoping she's worth at least $3000 =) ??

She is "worth" ...what the traffic will bare.... It all depends on what someone is willing to trade for.

The market is shot here... good, trained geldings going for $1500-$4000.
Good bloodlines & size....

You need to find someone "like-minded" who wants to trade for her....

"worth" of a horse is a very subjective thing!

Luckily for me, in our area--Peruvians are selling for pretty high. I've seen weanlings going for as much as 10k & broke show horses for more than $50k (I'm in WA state).....

Thanks again!

Hi, I'm new here, also in Washington State (Western) and involved in both breeds. She looks like a nice filly. I saw her sire, nice, stocky horse and a pinto. And test rode her half brother, very smooth and calm.

While some may be asking those prices on PPs, I'd have to wonder if they are getting them! Even a lot of the PFs I know of on the market in 3-6500. range are slow in selling. And Peruvian market is worse as far as I know. I could have gotten another PP for much less than I paid for a my PF mare.

You might just want to hang tight and see if she'll sell- just a thought.
I'd be interested if my current situation allowed for growing out a youngster!

You know, I really like your filly...she looks like some of my stock. I would think you should be able to get at a minimum $3500 for her...it just all depends, like Terry said, where you are and what folks are paying there.
Good luck...wish I could have her!

Hi, there -

With regard to the possibility of trading for a Peruvian mare/filly, are there any particular bloodlines you are interested in more than others? Or, is it better to ask if there are any that are out of the question? ;-)

Thanks! I don't have time to post much, but I am a darn good lurker if I do say so myself. ;-)

Sorry, been REALLY busy! I still have "Ali" and she's growing like a freakin' WEED! She's easily going to be 15 hands. She's starting to fill out more, too.

I've decided I'd much perfer cash on her, rather than trade for a Peruvian--unless the "perfect one" comes along--that being, TALL, DARK & minimal white. Inbreeding to a minimum, as well. With strong, old bloodlines. I perfer Buraldor, Antares, etc.

I have a tall, black *gorgeous* yearling filly (from Mary D) - by Biru out of her big gray mare, Sola Norte. She's good sized and a gaiting machine with those coveted Northern bloodlines. Let me know if you're interested - she's not officially for sale. but the right trade might interest me.
