@Standards Equine please post a picture of Jasmine in the high tops when you get them! @Marsha Cassada ~ I know Mindy from Chimicum talked about using pads for between sizes. I really like the Fusion boots too.

Congratulations! Looking forward to seeing pictures of your new little blessing... how fun!

@Mchalder I'm following your thread here and looking forward to your little guys transformation. Praying for wisdom for your farrier today! ❤

I usually feed twice day and do an hour of turn out in between the morning and evening feeds this time of year when the grass is dry. They are easy to catch and happy to come back in after an hour so it works for us. On days I don't do turn out I just throw them some more hay before I go out...

She is adorable! So glad they landed with you.

@Kelly if you want taller horses, just start doing CDEs. They measure at the withers. :) Kind of funny too with all the precise measuring you can have a different unverified measurement recorded on your registration papers. My friend says she has seen people throwing a fit at a show when...

I do like Tonto too though. His coloring and pattern seems fitting for it. We need to see his face! 😊

Congratulations!!!! Yes, post a picture of his face. Very happy for Dapper Dan too. Dapper Dan was a racehorse whose owners last name was Phipps. Name him Phipps! Edited to add Mr. Phipps. Dapper Dan and Mr. Phipps! 😄

Yay! Good job! Maybe now you can catch him rub his forehead and release right away each day until it's no big deal. You two are on your way!!!

I have 3 horses and when they are given the same amount of hay, one of them finishes an hour before the other two, and she is eating out of the smallest hole nibble net while the other two are fed loose hay so I would do the test if you are concerned.

It's hot here too, but we have drip systems set on a timer, otherwise I wouldn't have anything either!

@trails4jd~Weigh out a pound of hay and give it to your horse and time how long it takes him to consume it. Then you have a rough idea of how much time to let him out for that equals around a pound. Not an exact science, but it will be close.

Just one of the many reason a lot of full size horse people think we are ridiculous. The man down the street that drives percherons laughed in my face when I showed him a harness. He thought they looked like Barbie clothes. Kelly if you want Breezy to measure taller, better do it before he...

Can't wait to see the new horses you are picking up! Hope DD feels better and that he'll get a good compainion. I'd go for the gelding. I keep my bossy mare apart from my geldings most of the time because she harasses them.
