    Last Foal @ Rodie's Mini Ranch

    How old is too old??

    Would you consider buying a mare that is 16? I am looking at one due to foal in 2012, has a solid foaling history and not over bred. Is 16 too risky? I cant afford a mare of this calaber if she was younger. If she would be ok to foal how many foals could I get from her without it hurting her...

    Driving a stallion

    I have a 3 yr old stallion. He is very easy to work with. But of coarse he can be obxnious around the girls. Is it wise to teach a stallion to drive? I know people do it. We have always had geldings for driving. Any thoughts?
