    Cichad killers(look like wasps)

    Around the barn yards are dry lots with a lot of sandy soil. For the past three years we have these wasp like cicada killers. They are huge and scarey looking and buzz around, but they are peaceful and really are not a problem. But they do make me nervous because of their looks. I am afraid that...

    What are your barn rules?

    I forgot.... Hubby is not allowed to talk to potential clients about prices, or anything pertaining to my horses. He is a great guy but he can't tell one horse from another!!! Robin

    What are your barn rules?

    No one goes into barn area without us. Gates are shut and chained, even if I am only going in for just a second. Feed room is always double locked. No one smokes under threat of DEATH. I never let any of the 4 H girls in with my adult stallions, even though they have always been well...

    Hi Jill... I have used it for the usual uses, bringing milk in after foaling etc... but it was my vet's idea to try it on an open mare.

    Domperidone

    I used it on a NON Pregnant mare in order to bring milk in so that she could adopt and feed an orphan colt of mine. Mama had died right after foaling. It took 3 days for her milk to come in. It is a wonderful drug. Saved me a HUGE amount of work. I ordered it (with the vet's prescription) from...
