Thank you so much for your responses. What size wheel for an average "pipe" EE cart would you recommend for a 11H pony? I'm looking at a Frontier equestrian EE cart with brakes and heavy duty wheels. So if I'm hearing correctly I need to not measure wheel diameter so much as the height of the...

Is it very accurate? I read it but it stated that my 11H pony would need 55" shafts. I can't find a 55" shaft cart. So I wasn't sure I trusted how accurate those numbers were. After reading that I wrote down all those measurements and then My daughter and I went to the Carolina Carriage Super...

I'm looking at buying a cart for a 44 in or 11H foundation shetland. How long should the shafts be and what size wheel? She is 43 inches long. How do you measure the horse for the width of the shafts?

I don't remember the topic/title but it was rabbitfizz that made the post.

Rabbitsfizz How have you always managed to get lamanitic horses back on grass?

Thanks so much for taking the time to post these stories. It just might save one of us newbies. I read them with the mindset of oh, that's why you don't do that. Or, oh that's why we do that. In other words I try to learn some safety tips from them.

Who is that your driving

Not sure what happened for you - but just two weeks ago a standard sized horse at the barn I board at that was 25 yo had these almost exact symptoms and the outcome was that he had had a stroke. They didn't know it until after he had been put down. I'm so sorry. He would cock his head to the...

Can you shoot me a pm and tell me who you are taking lessons from? Just FYI Sue Hrizuk of Barn Star Farms is great - she is in SC.

How much do you sell the bridles for?

Google Freedom Feeder Hay net, and Cinch Chix hay net. Sorry double post.

Google Freedom Feeder Hay net, Google, Cinch Chix hay net also, the Hay Pillow.

Also - SMHN have strings that can be dangerous for a horse left alone for a couple of days. If you are going to use SMHN you really need someone there that can check on them a couple of times thru the day. Please google paradise paddock small mesh hay net comparison chart. It will bring most of...

First I agree with the other posters - horses, especially mini- really need to be taken care of and checked over for cuts bumps, scrapes and wounds daily. Having said that - if you are still determined to leave them in that situation - 1. Get 2 black rubbermaid tubs (one slightly bigger than...

If I leave mine out on pasture during the day and feed hay at night they get very obese pretty quick. If I keep them on a dry lot and feed hay free choice they get over weight. If I put them on a dry lot and only feed them hay that maintains their weight at a good level - they get very difficult...

Do you worry about them getting ulcers from an empty stomach? I do.

Don't know exactly how big your mini, how flat the terrain, how long the drive, or how fit she is, but two adults and a very small child might have been too much weight - could she have been objecting from being overly tired or too much weight?

Sorry Jetiki - I didn't see your post until this morning. This is an event listed on the Whips and Wheels Central North Carolina Club website. I don't know if we are allowed to mention specific names of farms on here. I can send you a pm and will.

How tall is he? Looks like the wheels could be a little taller and it would line the shafts up better. The shafts should go across the point of the shoulder and these do but at an upward angle which makes me think the wheels might be just a hair too short. Also, you can lenghten the traces just...

So, I'm thinking of going to a games day and the games listed are, Reverse Psychology, Cone Bending, Weaver Course, Six Shooter and Bingo. I don't know what these games are. Can someone tell me how they are played? Thanks.
