    Babies and their teeth

    I have a question regarding babies and their teeth. I have a 8 month old filly who was born prematurely, and she had no teeth for almost 6 weeks. When the baby teeth came in they were perfect, but now her bottom teeth are protruding out. I have been told that this is not unusual among minis...

    Wishing to build a mini stable/shelter

    Haven't figured out how to attach a picture yet, but I had a 10x14' shed built, with a dutch door on one side, and an openingon the other side, which goes into a 60'x50' corral. I had a fence put into the shed, which left one side 9x10 and the other side 5x10'. I stored my driving cart and...

    Petite Elite Precision Driving Team

    Watched the Petite at the Rose Bowl Parade...of course they cannot perform on the street, but they did do a wonderful job of representing all of us. Unfortunately, watching on HGTV, the commentators did not do that great of a job describing the team or our horses. Said enough about Star Wars...

    Putting a Mini on a Diet

    He is 32 inches tall, 9 years old. He is big around the belly, with a somewhat wide butt. I notice you both eluded to weighing his food...would 2 1/2 pounds per day, with the 2 lbs of pellets be too much? I am using a combination of Bermuda and Timothy, he is in a corral, not free grazing (he...

    Putting a Mini on a Diet

    Just got a mini...he has great blood lines but has been rather neglected over the past few years. The previous owners thought they were doing him a favor by feeding him 2 flakes a day, plus 2 pounds of Lake & Lite daily, plus those horse "cookies". Needless to say, he is two axe handles wide...
