*I can go out and shoot any video you would like to see of the following horses. Tons of pictures are available also*.

1. *Curly Joe: aka "Cheetoe". DOB 4/16/1996

Sold

2. *Midnight Siouxvenir: DOB 5/1/02 *DCC Sioux Warrior X *McK Mandy

Midnight is a beautiful grey over black gelding that was foaled here on the farm. We intended to keep him and eventually use him for lessons. Circumstances have not allowed me to do much more than halter break him and start his ground work (longing and driving), and sit on him a few times, and so I am offering him for sale to a home that will spend time with him and give him the attention he deserves. Midnight is registered. He is also a gelding.

$2,500.00

3. Star Siouxvenir: DOB 4/16/02 *DCC Sioux Warrior X Peanut

Star is such a sweet little mare. She is halter broke and will follow you around like she is your shadow. I have not had time to do much more than do a little longe work and sit on her. Once she finishes her training, I am confident that she will make a wonderful child's pony and an exceptional pony club mount. Her price will go up as her training increases, so you better snatch her up quickly before I decide to keep her. She stands somewhere around 14.1 hands high. Although she looks straight and is registered as such, she shows hypoallergenic qualities and sports a ruffled look in her winter coat, which you can see in the picture below.

$2,500.00

4. Mighty Mischevious Warrior: DOB 10/?/2003 *DCC Sioux Warrior X Peanut

Doesn't his name say it all? He is such a ham! In your back pocket friendly and willing to do anything you ask of him. Again, circumstances have been such that I haven't had time to be able to get him under saddle. He would make a great pair with his sister who is listed above. You can also see him looking at us in the above picture. I never got around to registering him, and I know I have his exact birth date recorded somewhere (my records are packed in a box since we moved). He does show hypoallergenic qualities just like his sister, and did show a lot of foal curl, but has outgrown it with the exception of some frizzy looking ears and a ruffled pattern over his flank. He can be registered with ICHO. He is gelded.

$2,200.00

5. *Warrior Stands Strong aka "Chewie": DOB 2/22 /06 *DCC Sioux Warrior X Peanut

Chewy is a real looker; friendly, and extremely smart! He is grey of course,and also a gelding. He accepts a halter and will lead now. We've discovered he has an affinity for peppermint flavored horse treats. He'll follow you everywhere if he thinks you have one, and will even get brave about unsure situations if he thinks he'll get a pepermint flavored treat. Silly boy! We will not sell him to a beginner/novice.

$975.00

Deer Creek Farms sends all horses to the new owner in good condition. We provide vaccination records, proof of a negative Coggins, a Health Certificate for travel, and any other procedures or documents that are required by law. If you as the buyer request any other tests, checks, or procedures that are not required by law, you will be financially responsible for them. (Some examples are (but not limited to) examination of the reproductive tract, *culture and sensitivity, X-rays, flexion tests. . .).

*We do have broodmares cultured when the veterinarian reccommends it at the start of the breeding season and will provide proof of that negative culture to you if the mare you wish to purchase was cultured. If you require a more recent culture, you will be responsible for the expense.

What does a Curly Horse Need?

So, exactly what does a curly horse need? Here is a list of truths and tales for you.

1. So you heard that they are usually hardy and trouble free? True! You have heard that they require virtually no care? False! Curlies are usually very hardy and trouble free. But that doesn't mean you can neglect them, it just means that they don't require as much "pampering".

2. Curlies need plenty of grass hay and fresh water. True.

3. They don't need grain. False. Depending on your curly horse's metabolism and exercise level, he may need grain to stay in good condition.

4. Curlies don't need a shelter. False! Although they are quite hardy, they should be provided with at least a run-in shed to get out of inclement weather. They don't necessarily need to be in a stall 24/7 (what horse does?). But they do need shelter.

5. Curly horses react to vaccinations and/or dewormers, so you shouldn't vaccinate or deworm. False! Curlies need to be kept current on vaccinations and be on a good parasite control program.

6. Curlies have hard hooves. True (there are a few exceptions). They don't need shoes. False! Although the majority of curlies have hard feet and are kept barefoot, some do require shoes. Shoeing should be based on individual needs, not a generalized assumption.

7. Curlies don't need their hooves trimmed. False! You bet they need regular farrier care. A few are self-trimmers. But to keep those hard feet healthy and well-balanced, you should have your horse's feet trimmed every 6-8 weeks barefoot and if shod, every 4-6 weeks.

8. Curlies have wonderful temperments, and are great horses for the family. True, true, true!

Items from the tackroom. Buyer pays shipping cost, unless you live around here. If you live around here, I'll meet you in a crowded place somewhere o.k.?

Shipping is by USPS if you don't live around here, just because I have no clue where the nearest Fed Ex, UPS, or DHL is located. Postage is whatever the Postal service charges for whatever type of shipping you want, just give me a zip code. I think they offer parcel, first class, overnight, etc.

*I have too many saddles! This one is a Collegiate 16 1/2 inch close contact saddle. I believe it has a narrow tree. Great condition. Has a water spot on the seat where the old tack room leaked on it, but I keep it in the new tack room and it is oiled nicely. Has IHSA stamp on it. I will send it to the new owner with stirrups and leathers. More pictures available. $250.00 price reduced.

*Cavalier Boots: Tall dress boots. Mint/like new condition. Size 6 1/2. Measurements: heel to toe, 10", Widest part of sole is just shy of 3.5 ". They are 19.5 inches tall (including the heel) and 12 inches around the calf area. I bought them online and didn't get a chance to wear them and now they don't fit in the calf. I need a 12 1/4. $70.00

*Pair of 24 Long Millers Show breeches. Origionally $135.00. I ordered them on sale. I have two other pair of long breeches, but I guess long has taken on a new meaning these days. I am sure they would do well for someone over 5'5". How about. . . $40.00 they still have the tags. . .and have been kept in a drawer in a non-smoking home.

*O-ring snaffle bit. Five inches. It's a slightly fat hollow bit. $5.00
