DIY lets you get an estimate online without talking to someone and honors that estimate if you lock in. So easy and they were excellent to do business with. You can use one of their preferred builders, hire your own contractor or do it yourself. Message me if you would like more info.

FFC Teetania might be a good fit for you. She's a 1998 Grey Crabbet Arabian Mare, stands 14.2 hands tall. Fully broke to ride and has been started over fences (but it's been a few years). She's always placed in the ribbon in hand and is very correct conformation-wise. She has produced three foals, one for Al-Marah Arabians and two for Fairfield Farm who we have retained for our breeding program. She is by SSA Csea Dream and out of FFC Raritee by FFC Geynius+/. Picture below is a few years out-dated. For further info you can contact Buzz Moore at fairfieldfarm@verizon.net. We are asking $5,000 or best offer, as we are looking for a great home for her.

We are hoping for a nice spring in late March or April for a photo shoot/video day. The picture below is from a few years ago, she is much lighter in color now. We are asking $5,000 OBO.
