    Tika is due to foal on April 17th but she's well within foaling range. She's got a very thick, sticky, Maroon discharge. I've never seen that in any of my mares before wether they were maiden or experienced. She also has a tiny bag but cant express any fluid at all. She's carrying the baby...

    highstepping

    I have 2 minis that are full sisters. They both have excellent movement at liberty. I've noticed that they both put their heads up and stick their noses out when they are in my favorite reaching for the stars trot. Is there a way to get this same movement with their noses tucked in such as in...

    My newest love!

    I haven't posted on here in a while but I thought I'd share pics of my newest auction find. Her reg name is Century Farms Darque Magic but I call her Beauty. She certainly lives up to her name. She's a yearling this year and can be a bit high strung but that just adds to her flair. I'm hoping to...

First day he was unable to get the nursing part so had to bottle feed which he didnt mind. Finally got him nursing on his own...

I tested it this morning got 85% chance of foaling between 10 am and 10 pm. Tested her again around 8pm she's at 95% chance...

    Halter Classes

    I'm finally taking Dream Girl to her first show May 15th. Yippee. She's a yearling and a mighty fine one at that! So i was trying to pick classes for her and was wondering what the difference between a Amature Halter Class and a Yearling Mare class is? Would a yearling be best off just...
