I have never seen snow in real life! its beautiful!

My thoroughbred has a very pale nose, but because he is a bay im constantly told i SHOULD put black makeup on his muzzle for shows, but I just cant because he has such a light nose, and a big blaze that covers half of his muzzle anyways... I do trim his whiskers and all of that but I really dont...

Im really sorry to hear of your loss.

I got into horses when I was 11, got a 'family' horse at 12 and got my first horse of my own for my 15th birthday and i will be 16 when I get my first mini. (turn 16 on sunday)

Thanks a tonne guys! I have sussed out Mitavite Breeder, and also Pegasus Studmaster. We are currently feeding Pegasus Coolmax to our 'big' horses and they are doing quite well. She will be on lots and lots of grass for the first few weeks, and then will be moved to where our big horses are and...

Wow great costumes! I might have to give Haloweening a shot this year, though not many people celebrate halloween in Australia!

What is free choice oats? From reading I get the impression that it is where u leave them oats that they can access all day long?

Any aussies on this forum? I need some feed advise from some aussies! I will be getting a weanling mini at the beginning of next year and wondering what i should feed her? She will eventually be a mini for me to take to shows, and possibly breed from ina few years time. The paddock she will be...

Hey Rabbitsfizz, Yeh was just thinking about that and have found somewhere nice and close, 5ks. Mum is on the phone to them right now, hopefully it is suitable!

What height would a foal born at 20 - 21' mature to (roughly)? Also, wondering if anyone had heard of the following Miniature horses... Cascade Star Wars Coat O' Chrome Sierra Cinders Sterling Paper Money Paleface Lucky Boy Brewers Orion Monarch Cisco Glenmar Park Remarkable Bear La...

The welsh's yard is one of 5 paddocks that are joined, and the ones next to it are taken by standarbreds and some quarter horses. I could maybe have her across the road in a 1/4 acre paddock so she can still see the welshy's? The farm is a pretty weird (but still good) set up... there are 5...

Just had a look on a site with info on the Loquat tree and one lady says her horses eats them regularly and love them and they have not done any harm. I still think I might maybe prune the tree so she wont be able to reach the fruits, just in case. Or they might be nice as a treat for her, but...

Thanks again Susanne, I will check with all the horsey people around town aswell as the equine vets. Thanks also to Marty. The yard is an odd shape, and would be quite easy to make into two for rotation. It has knee high (almost) grass all year round. About the poop, we have a few gardens out...

Hey susanne... yup thats the one! Loquat. I am located just south of perth, near the coast line, it is pretty moderate here, it doesnt get too hot or too cold, kinda like perth weather but with a coastal breeze. I have a choice of two paddocks/yards. ONe with the chicken shed type shelter...

Good luck! I would find that quite hard to do! Do you have anyone who can take turns helping you feed her?

Wow she is beautiful, and a gorgeous name also!

Thanks guys, but nope thats not the tree, it's really hard to find information on as I dont even know its name 100% but it has fruit on it which humans eat all of the time, and we always have cockatoo's and parrots fly in to eat the fruits aswell. Thanks again.

Hey just wondering if anyone had any fencing sites or tips for keeping a mini in, preferrably safe and affordable. Thanks guys

Wow... Im a new poster on this forum but I would just like to wish you the best. I am from Australia, so unfortunately physical help is out of the question, however I will offer everyone in need moral support. Good luck and positive vibes coming your way.

Thanks rabbitsfizz I am loving the forum already! The mini will be kept on the 1/4 acre full time (very grassy even in summer!) But maybe stabled at night time, or just leave it open as a WIWO. I believe it is about 8 x 10 meters. Is that too small? Will also be fed hay and hard feed as...
