Thanks you all. I have been busy with life for a few days (grandson in state ball tourney, aunt broke her hip) and have not been back on forum till now. What the mare seems to do is stop cycling for a week and then back on for 2-3 weeks. This evening when I got back home, she was not teasing and...

A couple of months ago I had a stallion gelded. Last month I turned him out with a couple of mares. He still exhibits stallion behavior unfortunately and one particular mare cycles constantly. Her hind legs are so nasty right now from all this behavior. Whenever I turn out another gelding and a...

Recently saw several pieces in Mena, Ar in a shop that specializes in Cowboy and Indian Art work.

Bump. More than 14 months later even people living under rocks now know who she is or more appropriately what she is. Now for those of you who might think Carriage Bb Bob had a crystal ball...I believe he was just reading the writing on the wall.

Is there anywhere on this site that gives names, location, and contact info of trainers?

I have heard even after gelding that a stallion can impregnate for 30 days. Also heard 90 days. How long do you keep one away from the mares? Also, would one that was dominant over another stallion remain dominant if he was gelded? What if both were gelded at the same time? How soon would you...

I used the strips for testing swimming pool water. They worked great and were cheap. Generally went with when they reached day 300, or had a full udder, or were showing signs of stage 1 labor. Any of these situations seems the time and the strips were so inexpensive I did not feel wasteful.

My 3 that stay on dry lot share about 7 cups morning and evening. So about 2 1/3 cups twice a day per horse. They are A size, but on the larger end of the spectrum. Everyone else varies according to size and quality of pasture.

Miniv this food actually smells good, like Granny Smith apples.

I just wanted to share that I am so pleased with the low starch feed I am feeding my insulin resistant few that I have recently put all on it. This type of feed is cooked through an extrusion process making all the nutrients more readily absorbed. I know there are different low starch feeds on...

Thanks for your input. I have started paying more attention to what the farrier is doing and thought I might try to get handy at it. I know it will kill my back just like grooming them down low does (and weeding flower beds, ouuuuch). Would like to save money and be able to know what I am...

Those of you who do your own trimming please describe what you have found to be the best nippers and other tools. Any and all tips would be appreciated as well. Thanks.

He passed away today on his 79th birthday. He was one of a kind. The local radio station has been playing his songs all day and taking requests. So many songs and so much talent. The song I really liked was If We Make It Through December. Let's honor Hag and name some more of his hits you...

So touching. I think Frank and Seven shared a heartfelt "good-bye, see you in the next life."
