Re: [RC] The Numbers Are Running Against Us - Chris Paus

Some of us are working on that but we can't keep
creating foals without buyers for them.

==========================================

"Arabian Horse Magazine", current issue, at page 147
tells how the Arabian horse today stacks up
numberwise vs paints and QH's. TB's were not
mentioned. We Arabian horse owners are now very much
"little fellows" and destined to stay that way
unless we wake up and buck up. For example AHM says
51% of purebred Arabians "are 16 years and older".
Not the best ages for breeding. Last year 8,000+
Arabians registered while 60,000+ paints registered
and the QH folk produced "160,000 new foals last
year." Arabian production is outgunned 20 to 1 vs
QH's. We should breed and promote a few more good
horses and not sit on our hands while the herd
simply ages out into residual fond memories. dnm
