    Year old stallion

    Also I believe you cannot register off spring of a stallion that is less than two years old.

    AMHR Studbook lookup

    Could someone who has the studbook look up a horse for me. His name is Dry Creeks Knight Rider, not positive about the spelling. I need his AMHR registration number and any show information that is available. I know he has at least two HOFs one in halter and another in country. He is about 28...

    Free-Feeding Alfalfa and/or Grass Hay

    We feed hay free choice but it is a mixed grass hay and not high in protein. We switched to round bales this year, we make our own hay, because my husband has shoulder problems that made handling small bales difficult. We have bales out in the pasture now since it is pretty much chewed down and...

    Nationals VS. Worlds

    Have been to both and both are great and enjoyable shows. It is much easier to qualify for Nationals, you only have to go, for the most part, to just two shows. Worlds are more expensive to show at and qualify for. Some types of horses do better at one or the other. I do think that Nationals are...

    A or B, which do you prefer?

    We have all A size double registered minis. I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder and I just do not like the very shetland looking bigger horses with big plain heads, and some lack the body depth and spring of rib that I think is important. I can appreciate the hackney like action but do...

    Tell me ALL about the National Show!

    You will find loads of beautiful horses and every class you might possibly want to show in the future. I think this will be my fourth trip to Nationals and I have also been to three or four World shows in Ft Worth which is also spectacular. You will learn a lot and possible spend a lot too, as...

    First time to Nationals--- Where to stay or where NOT to stay

    We stayed at the La Quinta last time, it was the airport one although it is not at the airport. Very nice but also a bit pricey although you may find some good deals online. We have reservations for the Wingate this time, it is well rated , hope it lives up to the rating. I usually like La...

    AMHR lookup

    Thank you. This was my horse and she was on one of those rescue sites on Facebook but I did not see it originally and now I think it is too late for me to find her, she has probably either been bought or sent to another sale :-(

    My First Appaloosa!

    It is hard to tell from the picture since she is not shed out but it looks like she might be a bay.

    Newbie really needs help here

    We have 15 minis, 22 boer goats and 2 big horses on about ten acres of divided pasture. The goats go out with the big horses not the minis and we have had no problems. 2 acres is not a lot, if it is weedy and brushy goats will clean it right up. If you have more property that is brushy or woods...

    New to the board and to Miniature Horses too!

    Welcome, your mare is a lovely bay color and it does look like she may have dappling when shed out.

    Official AMHR measurement needed ASAP HELP needed this week

    Despite having two measuring sticks I usually measure mine big at home. If you do not have a stick you can use a yardstick and a level, all the other advice is good.

    First 2013 foal at Rodie's Mini Ranch

    Very nice, those spots might pop out after awhile.

    possible inbred mini....questions about potential issues....

    A lot depends on what problems she may have in her background. Many breeders have had success with careful inbreeding but if there are problems like dwarfism they would be more likely to show up. There is nothing you can do at this point but wait and hope for a normal foal. You might want to...
