They are 100% reliable and experienced. Go to www.flyirt.com. There are certain requirements for each country to import- not...

    Feeding Oats To Miniatures

    Hi- All 400 horses here are fed whole recleaned race horse oats. God made oats for horses- not molasses and floor sweepings . We basically feed a 10% protein to all mature horses- oats are approximately 8-9% alone. We add a supplement that is soy base pellet- no molasses, no corn called PNC. It...

    Komokos Little King Supreme

    Hi All- well as you know- King Supreme was the direct compliment to Buckeroo for many years here at LKF. He was an awesome little stallion. He was extremely consistent in type, refinement and proportion. We have LK Supreme Dream and LK Super Supreme here on the farm standing this year- both sons...

    Open Barn at LKF -CANCELED

    Sorry everyone, but due to the local weather emergency, we are forced to cancel the Open Barn during the AMHA National Meeting. We are under a storm emergency and they are giving fines to people out driving! This snow is unbelievable here! Many roads are closed and most businesses are shut down...

    Sunday, our little foal was mauled by two pit bulls

    You need an Anatolian! We had something similar happen 25 years ago. Since then we have had the Anatolians. They are wonderful protectors and will not hurt an animal that is not agressive. BUT- one that comes wandering in here looking to kill or harm- they are dead immediately. I know that...

    Red Bag Delivery

    Red Bag delivery- it is really simple (and very common in minis)- and it really can be "no big deal". If the first presenting sign during labor is a red bubble (it is the lining of the placenta that is normally attached to the uterine wall), then cut it open- use something sharp as it is really...

    Domperidone

    WOW- I am shocked at some of these answers! Just my experience I guess though. First of all you can overdose a mini with domperidone. If you overdose your mare she may turn very mean and agressive towards you or the foal. So be careful. 2nd -we use it ONLY after the mare has foaled. It has a...

    What does a Yawning Horse mean?

    Hi- for some reason this interested me as there are several possible issues with yawning. Here are some things I consider when a horse appears to be yawning: 1. Ulcers 2. Teeth issues 3. Getting ready to foal 4. Stressed- back up to ulcers 5. Either getting ready to rest or just getting up...

    A word about those senior horses.........

    You never know what tomorrow will bring. Mom and I wonder everyday if today is the day... Buckeroo turns 32 this May. Honestly we both said we hope he goes quick. I hate to see them get old. Mom talked about buying a defribullator just in case as most old stallions will die while breeding...

    Rain Rot

    We had some bad cases this year on broodmares- not sure why- I guess it was real wet summer. Usually it is common for a recently clipped horse to be put outside in the weather to get it. Anyway- We use Orvis with betadine added in. Scrub them with a comb or rubber mitt to get down into the skin...
