We've done some new stuff here.

I took a big horse design and shrunk it down to mini size. I'm making them myself now. I put a strip of mesh metal in the front of the bottom and it slopes down to allow for water drainage.

Then I designed and built these new panels. These are all 16' long, solid pieces so they won't flex with 8' gates.

I want to thank everyone who has posted on this thread. We have all shared mini ideas. Lets keep it going. No matter what the idea no matter how small just think someone else might be able to use it that had not thought about it..................So bump it up gang............

This is my backyard- my barns are "mini sized" as is the fence height

We use rubber mats outside to feed hay on rather than the ground.

It came from Wrangler Trailers and I just LOVE it! It will hold 5 minis in the stalls pictured, but the dressing room door will swing and 2 minis could go in there, for a total of 7, if need or want be

I think the mini horse trailers are so cool. Perhaps someday I will have one.........lol
 
Here's my little stall set up. It's a 10 X 10 stall and these are those little mineral feeders I use for feed and minerals and then the water bucket of course. We didn't have a 2 X 4 to hang the feeders on so Jerry made a little holder and then just slip down into it. Works for me.

And here's my little hay trailer. My hay building is away from the main barn, so I just take what I need for a couple of days and put it here in the trailer where it's handy parked outside the back door of the barn.

And here's my favorite stuff called gravel.........I have gravel roads that run all around my barn yard and up to each field gate. I can lead everyone all over the place and no more slipping and falling down in the mud, snow or ice for me ever again.

I can't ever have enough gravel. I'm obcessed and every chance I get I keep ordering more loads.

My Husband designed and built these hayfeeders. They hold a full square-bale.

Hey,

Does hay bale holders? Does he sell them? Also how do you keep rain out of them?

thanks MELISSA
 
He does sell them, you can add a roof there are holes and hardware for it. We don't have a problem with it gettin wet in this position, if it was laying down you probably would.

Here is the web-site http://www.squarebalehayfeeder.com/

They have moved this topic so I hope that you get this.

I have one 8x8 stall. The others are all 8x12. I like that size a lot. Our run ins are 8x16 and 18x21.
 
My favourite product is the TubTrug i use them as manure buckets, they are flexible even in the super cold temps! and are easy to carry... they withstand alot too, ours have been tossed about ..chewed on by the horses
