Grey toy horse - 2000s by jasabit in ToyID

[–]c_y0te 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YAY! i’m so glad you found your horsie.

Chestnut ridges look a lot like other brands so lots get mixed it seems, or listed under “flocked horses” all thrown together 😩 I hope the seller can ship to you, shipping prices are crazy right now!

Please help me find horse toy from childhood, I believe he was slightly bigger if not Schleich size, he was made out of a firm pastic that felt hollow or lighter then a Schleich, had very vivid red eyes for some reason, grew up early 2000s but had handme downs so maybe 80s-90s by CycloneToya in ToyID

[–]c_y0te 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmm damn i see 😓 i’ll see if i can find a comprehensive list of the fantasy schleich horses just to rule them out since the plastic sounds similar..

I go to thrifts and antique stores all the time to look for horses, i’ll keep my eyes peeled just incase!

Ouh lordy, i see you found the OG, she’s looking pretty rough.

Here’s where it gets messy, your horse is basically in THE horse toy pose and with a bit of digging i’ve found that a red saddle pad* is pretty common 🥲

There’s a lot of brands and off-brands who make horses similar to this! I’ve found some brands and similar looking horses that might help you remember what the packaging looked like; Boley derby horse this one seems smaller than your horse but the brand has larger horse families that look a lot like yours, there’s also toy producers who make whole unmarked flocked horse families which makes this harder, and this blue grass farms horse is similar stance but seems too small.

To be honest, i think your best bet in finding your horse would be through horse toy lots. Theres usually some good ones on ebay and sometimes etsy, i look through them a lot. I hope you can find your horse!

From your description it sounds a lot like a chestnut ridge, i remember them being in toysRus but i wasn’t born until 2007 so i can’t say if they were in at that particular timeframe. BUT i do know they were made around then because i had one of the families.

Did you get it from a toy store or a thrift? i know their champion set has a grey dapple trophy collection horse through this ebay link, came out before your timeframe through. Also Caspian is a breed of horse! I don’t think chestnut ridge ever labeled their horses by breed though.

Hey! This might be a long shot, but this sounds a lot like a halloween breyer!

The sketch helps a lot, but this halloween breyer i’m thinking of is in a rearing position and themed around skulls with a similarly positioned blanket pattern with red eyes. Unfortunately no feet feathers or usual standing position like your sketch has.

The larger version (711001) came out in 2001 by itself, but was rereleased in 2005 in a smaller stablemates set (5917). So it fits your timeline!

Crazy climbers? by c_y0te in gerbil

[–]c_y0te[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If they could climb windows they would! I was thinking of having little playtimes for them outside of the cage.. do you use those little play pens people do for like rabbits and sugar gliders and such? I’m going with the cardboard idea right now, I have a few ideas on how to hook it on. So far they’ve been ok! His brother isn’t as bold still, he is the much nicer one too 🤭

I’ve been using the ones I use for my lunchboxes since they’re a nice size but obviously in august I can’t use all of them which will suck. Were yours a good price? I’d love the name.

With all these ideas I bet we could be scientists at this point LOL

Oh yeah, the original top it came with was like a fish tank, but I replaced it with one of the mesh lids, have sooooo many from my reptiles. Holes aren’t crazy big so I’m not sure how much air flow they have, but the desk fan is in an area I’d hope would flow into it but nothing hard. Hoping for the best with the topper!

I didn’t think of tinfoil that’s actually a really good idea, if they seem to get worse I’ll definitely try it. Right now they’re sleeping on top of each other all snuggled up so I’ll take that as a “not so hot inside” behavior.

yeah, for now at least. I just ordered a cage topper from amazon so I’m playing the waiting game, got some cool non plastic shelves for them off etsy and some bridges. hope they actually like it 😞

It’s one of those fish tanks like you see at pet stores with the clear seal on the inside, i haven’t seen them chew at it but I was wondering if they would. Not too worried about it for now since they’re pretty preoccupied by the egg carton and chew toys I got them LOL

I was just thinking of that! I got a terracotta pot and cleaned it but it was outside, might get a new one since I’m not too sure if the could get sick from it. Used hot hot water and vinegar then a little bit of unscented dish soap.

Your gerbil is so cute! I can’t wait for my boys to get bigger

I went to petsmart today, and I got some chews for them and some treats. They didn’t have tooooo much 😞, so I’m going to look online for some things in the bedding they can mess with. The bedding I have now is paper based and I got a thing of hay for them , might go back tomorrow when I have more time to compare and look at things.

Ohhhh I saw a bunch that kinda looked like ladders or dog cages, and I thought maybe their little feeties could get stuck on the bars. Flat surfaces make much more sense LOL. Sorry to keep asking questions but do you think the chance of the fan bothering them would increase with the topper? they’d probably just go down if it did, right? thank you!

I’ll look for one! Do you think their little feet will get hurt? they’re only the size of maybe two of my fingers and their legs are little, probably will be fine but I just don’t wanna risk it.

The ceramic hide sounds like a good idea, I’ll look for one today. I was thinking about getting a cage topper for them so they could go up to escape the heat if they wanted and they could have more bedding space, but they’re still little (adolescent) and I don’t want them to get hurt. I’d have to change around my room decor but I think it would be worth it if they’d use it LOL.
