    Dog Blankets for Newborn Foals...What size works ?

    I make fleece and waterproof foal blankets. Pretty reasonable. I agree that newborns need fleece to absorb wetness. A lot of dog jackets are small in the neck hole and they dont come down over the side far enough to keep the foal warm. I have fleece belly bands on mine to keep it soft. Here is...

    Perlino Creamello question

    We had a cremello stallion and a perlino stallion both. the perlino always looked dirty and creamy looking. Our cremello always managed to look the cleanest of all our horses 90% of the time lol. But yep, we could always tell the difference. Marsha

    Conformation/Critique on my two mares

    The colt looks nice but IMO has too long of a body. I'm sorry, but I just dont like the way Dream looks. her neck looks very thin and very short, it doesnt go with the rest of her body. she doesnt seem to have much hip or a good shoulder either one Crystal looks better of the two, a bit stocky...

    Conformation/Critique on my two mares

    I agree with pretty much everything said above. I would drive them and not breed them. This just proves that bloodlines dont make a horse perfect. They are cute but I wouldnt buy either one personally. I would consider them pet quality mares. I have learned that the saying that breeding mediocre...

    Foaling Help-UPDATED 11/8

    I love the foal time strips, so much easier to do too. One or two drops onto the paper is much easier to get a sample. I just tried to get their website up and its not working anymore. Maybe they went out of business or ?? Marsha

    Foaling Help-UPDATED 11/8

    I think she has time yet. I know they can have jello butt for a couple of weeks or so. By looking at the pics I'd say you have time yet. The milk isnt changing anywhere near where it needs to be and her bag looks like she has a month or more to go. Do you know if she did have fescue or just...

    Foaling Help-UPDATED 11/8

    Her hoohoo seems to be getting longer/looser. But holy cow, no bag to speak of. But my maiden mare looked like that about a week before foaling, she filled up that quick. I think she is getting closer. How relaxed are her muscles around her tail? Marsha

    Foaling Help-UPDATED 11/8

    It really varies, it can be hours to days. Everyone is different. Marsha

    Foaling Help-UPDATED 11/8

    the test has to be 6.4 or 6.0 before she foals. Sometimes it changes overnight or within a few hours. Marsha

    Foaling Help-UPDATED 11/8

    It has to be like skim milk before she is ready to foal and sweet too. Good that it isnt salty anymore but it also needs to not be so sticky too. She is getting closer. Marsha

    Thanks! Yes it will be. I am hoping it looks like the yearling filly who will be its half sister. I love Maple Hollow Farm's pinto girl too, very pretty. Marhsa

    Had a great day & got Bria home

    Gorgeous girl Would have loved to get her myself. And I agree, there were lots of great horses there but only so much money to spend. I got both of my girls this last week before the sale so I didnt have to be tempted by more. Marsha

    Troubles selling

    I agree that photos arent the only thing to sell a horse. And it is tough to sell these days. I really think its luck finding the right person wanting your right horse for them. I am extremely picky when I am buying and I buy for color, temperament, pedigree and conformation (not necessarily in...

    Troubles selling

    I had to take off the end that said salepage and it worked. But, yes, the link in her signature brought me to a blank page as well. Marsha

    Troubles selling

    I am not a fan of pictures that I cant get a good look at the horse. Also hate pics with fake backgrounds. It looks silly to me. No matter what price you are asking for them, you have to take good pictures. Set up would be great, but at least standing strait and showing the whole horse (not...
