Oops, I'm looking for info on AMHA, she isn't registered AMHR. Thanks!

Thank you Stacy! I'll look for information on trying to contact them I think the one name is just Del Mayo (unless AMHA allows name changes) as this is the name that shows on her AMHA papers?

:DOH! I bought a mare who will be 8 (I believe) this year, however I noticed on her papers that she is not permanently registered with AMHA yet, is that going to cause any ill effects if i try to perm register her? It also doesn't appear that she is transfered into the woman's name that I...

I also had tubes put in my ears and my adnoids (sp?) taken out when I was a young child, however my hearing problem wasn't discovered until I was in 1st grade (I ended up repeating 1st grade) and I had to take speech therapy classes for some time. I usually didn't hear my parents talking to me...

Well, I only have one experience paying someone to haul a mini for me. It was a local haul and cost me about $120.00 for a 1 1/2-2hr ride. Most people would charge a minimum of $200-$300 for that trip. I recently hauled another horse about the same distance for $140.00. I have hauled a...

Good afternoon everyone I'm hoping that perhaps someone may know some information on the following horses and if I'm really lucky maybe you'll have pictures of them as well If you can extend the pedigree further back as well that would be wonderful as I only have the first three generations...

txminipinto: Yes, you can buy the things directly from the company and might I add that it is also CHEAPER to buythe products from them Atleast it is with the foal IgG 3 test kit. I found a cheaper way to somewhat test the colostrum so I don't need the colostrum testers. One of the posters...

I do the IgG tests (I have a vet do them). Foals can go downhill so quickly that I find it extremely important to do this test. It's simple it's reasonably priced and it gives you peace of mind that your foal is healthy. Otherwise it tells you they ARENT and NEED either a colostrum supplement...

I just bought a 3 test foal IgG kit and their pipetter (needed for the tests). They were the most reasonably priced ones I found and that ship FAST! Very easy to work with. The only other kind I found would have cost me about the same price as I paid for the 3 test kit, EXCEPT, i would have...

Great thread! I agree, Blessed are The Broodmares is an EXCELLENT very informative book to have. I love the ideas of using the post its for important areas and labeling it and also the note board! Another very important thing to remember is to have the foals IgG levels checked between 9 and...

I don't buy my hay from feed stores anymore...straw I will (only place i can usually find it). Hay at the feed store always seemed to be a couple dollars more than if i bought it elsewhere (and it wasn't that great looking). I used to live in California and we paid big prices for hay. Hay in...

I bought mine on Ebay...they have a lot of serveillance stuff on there. I bought a 2.4GHz wireless baby monitor, RF-Link. Its supposed to work up to 300 feet going through things...and 700 some feet with a straight line of sight. I checked mine out a few days ago and it works through my...

I'm sorry you had a bunch of bad apples thrown your way. It is very hard to trust people, especially once you've been there and done that with the people who did do you wrong. Although I have never had a bad dealing with buying horses (knock on wood), I have had two experiences where the...

I'll have to try to find some steel wool....where might I find this? A hardware store...or...a place like Lowes or Home Depot? I rescued a kitten earlier this year to eventually be my barn cat...but, he's only a few months old...and not much of a winter coat...so I'm not sure I feel...

For the past two weeks or so, since the weather has gotten colder, every morning I go into my mares stall, and they have dug between 4-8 holes. I fill them in when I see them...the next morning they are dug up again, and often times LARGER than the hole was previously. I've tried filling it in...

Coyotes are a royal pain! When I lived in California, close to the mexico border on 8 acres, they never bothered the horses, but there were huge packs of them that were always around our property...and very close at night....you could hear their howls as if they were only a few hundred feet...

I'm no sorry for your mare's loss and yours, I know what it's like to lose a foal, my condolences go to both you and your mare.

I agree with other posters, I would definately have some blood work done on him, having his teeth checked again is also a good idea. I also suggest sending a manure sample to your vet as well to check for worms....even though you worm regularly, it's always good to be absolutely sure. Good...

I have always fed my horses sweet feed (but I have full sized horses, no miniatures as of yet, though I love them). When I was managing the care of up to 18 horses at a time, some boarders used pellets and some used sweet feed. I found the pellets to be a lot more dusty, especially at the...

Old enough to be away from their mother, and probably a couple months after that just to make sure they are big enough. As a rule of thumb, NOT before they are potty trained, although, we've had litters potty trained pretty quickly before. I've had experiences with one of my Shetland Sheepdogs...
