How does the auction work? IMAPC Members who own Appaloosa and Pintaloosa stallions have donated a breeding service to their stallion to benefit IMAPC and the promotion of Miniature Appaloosa and Pintaloosa horses. Each breeding service is offered for "open" bid to registered mares of the general public. Each
stallion is bid on in a silent auction format by
clicking on the "SUBMIT BID"
button located on each Stallions information page.
Payment of the winning bid is made directly to IMAPC for the stud fee. This payment is for the purchase price of the breeding service ONLY. Costs such as shipping, mare care, confirmation of pregnancy etc. are additional fees to be arranged between mare and stallion owner upon winning bid.
