I finally ordered a couple pictures from a horse show in April. Dancer was really loving the song! Thank you to Tempus Fugit Photography.

Hi-- I saw some forum members' trailers at this sale, but I didn't really meet anyone new besides a creepy guy who sat down beside me....Anyways I wrote down about 1/3 to 1/2 of the prices if anyone is interested. There was a driving horse that seemed nice, but it was hard to tell since he...

Hi Everyone-- I finally got around to getting fecal egg samples done on our horses. The vet said that there is a large amount of sand in the feces. I find this very unusual because the horses are out on fairly lush pasture, not a dry lot. The area where the horses are kept is "normal" soil, no...

This summer my plan was to go to 2 horse shows: a small, local show in VA and the World Class Registry World Show. After being disappointed with the first one and the WC show being canceled a week before the show, something told me it is time to do something. Why are there so few mini shows in...

Hi-- A few years ago I got a fecal egg test kit from Ozark Mini Tack for about $15 each. I am trying to get more to test our herd, but I can't find anything cheaper than $20 each. The vet charges $12, but $50 for a farm call so that isn't the best deal. Does anyone know any good sources? I am...

Happy Fourth of July!

Hi-- Almost everyone on the forum has an established farm, so hopefully I can get some good advice. My big question is how do you start a farm? I am looking to have a farm name even though I don't really have any land or capital yet. Just me and my minis which are boarded (for now). In the...

What are the rules and guidelines for using bell boots in roadster? -Do you have to wear them even if your horse doesn't need them? Or is it just a "look"? -What color do you pick? Should it match your silks? or your horses color? Thanks ** I didn't realize it was registry specific, rules...

Hey-- I just wanted to give an update on the big changes in my life--all happening this month. I graduated from NC State on May 11th and on May 15th I got an offer letter for an internship at the National 4-H Youth Conference Center in Chevy Chase, Maryland (DC area). I packed my bags, drove up...

Despite having to give her a bath in the rain on Saturday I think I did a fairly good job of a barn clip. She'll be in a show in about a month so I left her legs and ears undone.

I'm surprised no one has posted this yet, but ECMHC Spring Fling is this Thursday though Sunday in Williamston, NC. I really wanted to bring Dancer, but I have to help out with our class livestock auction on Saturday, so I'll be there Thursday though Friday afternoon. I really love this show and...

I am looking for feeding suggestions for the day before and day of a show. I have an all around performance horse that will be in quite a few jumping, obstacle, and driving classes. What is a good feeding plan the day before and day of to make sure she has enough energy, but also doesn't get the...

Hey-- Just wanted to share what I've been making---they are little "smock" for premies in the NICU at hospitals. I can't wait to deliver them next week. I found the pattern online and got hooked. So far I've made over 40. Although they are simple it takes forever (and a ton of threat) to surge...

A couple pictures of my guys--- Dancer: Poor southern girl probably hasn't seen this much snow in a while Treasure-: I was worming another horse and he was sooo convinced I had a treat I let him "sample" the wormer. He bit the tube and wouldn't let go. I guess later he realized it didn't taste...

I have an Oster A-5 Turbo and someone was offering discounting blades that fit his Double Ks and Andis Super 2s. Will these blades work with my Oster? Thanks

Hi-- I'm putting together a flyer for a miniature horse show and possibly a program. I am looking for good pictures to put on the flyer, so if you have any horse show pictures that you don't mind me using can you please post them? Thanks

Hi Everyone-- I'm looking for some fun and creative names for a Mini Horse Club Summer Horse Show. It doesn't have to be completely original but I'd like something better than "Summer Classic." Thanks
