Schleich!

Lol guess what we saw fallen in our neighborhood?!
A branch! Yeah... We had about 5 seconds of 40 mph wind. I think that was about it, not sure. In our old house we one time had a tree fall, but not because of wind or anything, it had done sort of fungus and was apparently dead or dying. |

Whiz: yeah, most are a lot more unrealistic, but a few are pretty. Comparing my well-used, old chestnut QH mare to the gorgeous new exclusive Andalusian mare, I can easily tell that even if the older one is quite as detail, it's more realistic. There seem to be a lot of Schleich with weirdly placed legs that throw of the whole thing, and I think they're going a little crazy with manes and tails (2015 paint stallion, new Andalusian mare, Icelandic mare) yes manes may, on rare occasions, look like that but it just seems odd.
On the other note: look for them on ebay, that way you can see what other people are paying for then and go around there. Or, if you want to sell them as a lot, you could assume each is worth $2-$8 from foals, minis, and beat-up models to drafts or brand new horses. |

Harper, go make a Schleich craft! Maybe a halter, or a felt blanket or saddle?

Jo do you know how to make a good lead rope out of yarn? If so could you pm me it?
|
By Retired breeder, 25th February 2016 14:01:50
Oh, you twist the yarn in such a way that it looks like a lead rope!

Or you could use embroidery floss. That's what I use.

Yeah. So, what is everybody's dream schleich?
|
By Retired breeder, 25th February 2016 14:48:09
Oh boy. So it's not really my "dream schleich" but right now I REALLY want the falabella mare.
|
By Retired breeder, 25th February 2016 14:57:56
Oh yes! She is stunning! I saw this one custom that was pawing the ground that was for only 20 dollars! He was taken though!

Aw!
She'd go perfect with my pinto mare. It sounds silly, but my neighbor has a black pinto mare that looks SO much like my Schleich, and he's also got a flaxen sorrel miniature pony. So I want to get the falabella to go with my pinto. And it'll be just like his horses. |

That would look great! I am going to bring up a few awesome schleichy customs!:
|
By Retired breeder, 25th February 2016 15:50:03
By the way, should I put some shows in my forum?
|
By Retired breeder, 25th February 2016 15:58:29
YES! A thousand times YES! I've been wanting to show my horses ever since I got them!
|
By Retired breeder, 25th February 2016 16:02:01
Okay! I will set up a few, but let's make sure we don't have a million shows everywhere like last time. This time we will only have a few people with shows.
|
By Retired breeder, 25th February 2016 16:08:53
Okay, one up!
|
By Retired breeder, 25th February 2016 16:26:28
Okay, I am watching a few things on ebay. Some 2016 horses, a jumping horse, and a percheron mare.
