Introduction
My name is Derbie and I have found great joy in the exploration part of Horse Fable. Are you looking for wild horses? I have a growing army of them and will be auctioning them off, then selling them at a flat rate if there are no takers at auction. See below for details. Please bear with me if post is unreadable. I am working on formatting.

There are currently 43 horses in auction.
There are currently 8 horses for sale.
Auctions
How it works:
- I find wild horses in explore. What I don't need or want (which is a great majority), I will process for auction.
- My pre-auction process includes:
- Foals: Gene testing and foal training (will continue through auction duration until training is complete, or auction ends, whichever comes first). When foal training completes, I will train for a discipline that best suits their stats and may also begin halter shows.
- Adults: Gene testing and personality training. Disclaimer: I may use these horses as career horses (model career) or for exploration for the duration of the auction period to help recoup boarding costs.
- Some individuals may come pre-registered at their appropriate breed registries.
- My pricing generally follows:
- Foals: Starting bid at $500, reserve at $1000. No buyout.
- Adults: Starting bid around $1000-1500, reserve around $1500-2000 depending on stats. No buyout.
- All horses, regardless of value, are priced to account for gene testing, personality testing, and other care fees. I want to keep costs low enough that most players can bid.
- Auction time:
- Generally the full 72 hours or so, but may also have reduced time auctions to keep horses moving.
Sales
How it works:
- If a horse fails to receive any bids, I will post it for sale.
- All horses will continue to be used for revenue until sold. May include discipline and halter paths, as well as careers.
- Pricing depends on the horse, but most will generally not exceed $2000.
Please reach out if you have any questions or offers!
Hi ☺️ You possibly already know (but just in case) your dapple 5* Paso also has tiger eye (this is kind of rare to come by, especially combined with dapple).
Also, your formatting is great! I love collecting wilds so I’ll be checking back often!
Oh wonderful! I'm still new to the site (and horse genetics in general), so I wasn't aware of the tiger eye! Thanks for pointing it out; I'll be keeping a closer look at the wilds I catch in the future 😊 Thank you!
You’re welcome ❤️ Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

Moved failed auctions to the sales section.
Removed list of notable auctions and list of horses for sale. It was getting tedious updating them regularly.
Removed trade/offers. I was not getting any bites and I don't want to hold on to horses longer than necessary.
Removed retirement and adoption. I have more than enough horses at this time.
