Hello, I don't know if this is a stupid question or not but I am having a problem with one of my mares. My head of the pack mare, or actually filly (she is one years old), has begun mounting on one of my other fillies. She is doing this alot. I know dogs do this to show dominence but do horses...

I definetly made sure I did not get the Quest. I did buy it in the syringe but what should I set the weight to. All three of my fillies are about 6months old.

Hello, ok this is probaly going to sound stupid. But I need help on the "how to" on giving the tube paste wormers. I am new to all this. Can somebody give me a idea on how to do this. I know how to give dogs their medicine but I don't think my horses will let me open their mouth wide and stick...

Thanks for the info. I will do that.

Sorry for the triple post. That is what happens when you have slow internet and you get inpatient.

I am currently using a daily wormer called Continuex on my three minis. Does this work as well as the tubes you give every 6 weeks or so? If so, do I need to switch to another brand after they finish with the Continuex so they don't build immunity from it. I would greatly appreciate your...

Thanks for the website. It helped alot.

See this is what this forum is for! I had no idea there was even a word for it. One of my fillies had done this, but she was not down long and I was able to roll her over and she got right up. Now I know it can be serious. Thanks

I do understand. I trimmed just a little off each. The breeder I bought them from showed me how. I wanted to get them use to the process so when I do get a farrier who will do the real trimming they will do a little better for him. I am having trouble finding a farrier though. They are not just...

I have a question on trimming the hoofs on my 4 month old filly. She will not sit still. She will jerk me around until finally I give up. What can I do to calm her. My other 2 fillies will let me trim there hoofs with nearly no problems. Please help! Please remember I am new to horses so I am...

Hello, my name is Heather and I am from Texas. Just wanted to let ya'll know that this forum is the best. I am new to minis, actually horses altogether. We just purchased our 3 mini fillies last weekend and I am in love. I am on this forum everyday finding out new things from ya'll. I know I...
