    ? RE: breeding a small mare to a larger stallion

    I'm just asking this out of curiosity.... Now, being from the big horse world, I am used to hearing about a 15.2 hand mare getting bred to some 17.1 hand stallion, and giving birth with no problem. I was always told that when you breed a smaller mare to a larger stallion, the baby will always...

    How about 2 or more foals

    I already pisted here, but wanted to add: The main problem I see in multiple ET's per year on the same mare is the risk of having multiple foals with the same genetic problem. When you breed naturally, at least you have a year - or more - between each foal, to make sure that your choice for a...

    How about 2 or more foals

    Embryo Transfers are being done ALL the time in "big" horse world. It is especially useful for a competition mare who's owners don't want to take her out of competition, ,but yet want a foal from her, or for the mare who is worth to much to risk being pregnant, going through labor etc, or for...

    bee scare

    A note about the Hemorrhoid cream: Preparation H also works wonders on lacerations. Makes the hair grow back super quick and prevents scarring - it's actually the Shark Oil it contains, that helps so much.

    What do breeders do with "too tall" minis?

    Again, I didn't post what I was looking for, on this BB because you are NOT allowed to advertise, and I respect that. As for wanting a mare, I like mares. If she cannot ever be bred, that is TOTALLY FINE - in fact, someone emailed me about such a mare who would not be able to be rebred, but...

    Gotta a good ole kick in the gut!!!!!!!

    Well, it sounds like it is THEIR loss, certainly NOT yours. As for how they responded...not only was in uncalled for, and rude, but very unprofessional as well. I think people often say things in emails - and BB's - because I guess it's easier typing things out, rather saying it face to...

    Quiessance and Minis

    I had been giving it to my Welsh X pony mare to help calm her down, but took her off as I haven't seen a bit of difference. Since I have so much left though, I decided to give it to me VERY fat and cresty necked mini gelding. I have been giving him just a scooper of it per day, but am...

    What do breeders do with "too tall" minis?

    First off, since this BB does have a NO ADVERTISING rule, I don't think it is appropriate to post my ad here. Secondly, I am a nice, honest, person. Therefor, I get a bit confused when people post things on a BB about me, instead of saying it directly to ME. Now...I realize that this may...

    What do breeders do with "too tall" minis?

    I know you're not allowed to advertize here, so I hope I'm not breaking that rule, but I just don't really know where to look. I'm not wanting some high priced show quality, registered Mini. I don't care about papers, and seeing as how I want something under the $500 range, I was thinking...

    A boy and his Pony

    I haven't posted here in a while, but I did want to share what we did yesterday: Tyler and Simba: http://community.webshots.com/photo/196527...419098071YQEznS Of course, as I was feeding Simba his Quessance, he bit down on my finger. Then one minute after I turned him back out - all clean...
