    Kentucky Derby water glass

    I collected them for a while. I have some from the 1950's and 1960's on. They are very valuable as they get older. The gift shop will have them and ebay always has tons on there for sale. Good luck and they are fun. They are actually what they serve mint juleps in at the Derby, unless you...

    Halter Breaking 5 month old foals

    Very Aggressive 3 year old Stallion

    Well I am going to call the vet tomorrow and have him gelded. He is green broke to drive and I will keep him driving. He is purposely mean. It is not playful aggression. That is why I was so concerned. After I geld him and give him some time to calm, I will re evaluate the situation. He...

    Very Aggressive 3 year old Stallion

    I have had this stallion all of his life. He was shown since he was a yearling. He was a biter when he was younger, but now he is just mean. He jumped on my daughter who is 21 and experienced with horses and knocked her down and stomped her and bit her in the back. Now when I let him out in...

    What can I say (Jimmy Hand)

    I just felt I should share with everyone how unbelievable his funeral was. He was a criminal investigator for 33 years and all aspects of law enforcement escorted the hearse to the cemetary. There was an officer to salute us at each turn. I just couldn't believe it. The escort of police...

    My 15 day old filly has bloody diarrhea

    If you cannot get a vet now, mix pedialite and metamucil. You have to mix it quick because it turns into a gel. If you can get some of this down the baby 4 times a day to start, you maybe can save it. I use a syringe to get it into the babies. I had one that I knew I was going to loose and...

    AMHA VS AMHR ???????

    If you don't show I wouldn't worry about it. When I started most of my first horses were AMHR. My stallion I purchased was both. If you have one that is superb as far as conformation and can be registered under both I would. I started showing AMHR several years ago, so I prefer that...

    Update on Jimmy in Hospital

    Well this has been the longest 5 weeks of my life. It all started with pnemonia. Then on the ventilator, then MRSA sepsis in the bloodstream (most people die from this) I am so thankful to God that we made it. Yesterday we were moved to an Acute Care Rehab Hospital to get eating and walking...

    Which is the best bug spray??

    I don't know if it is your barn or just on the horses, but we invested in a barn spray system made by pyrana. Yes it is costly, but it works. We have a fly free barn. People that come to look at horses will notice first thing that we have no flys. I also put fly traps above the stalls. I...

    Is there any reason

    I have heard of that happening before. They can have spots. It is rare, but every now and then it will happen.

    Hospital Care I don't get this

    Well my opinion on Hospitals is this! Right this moment I am sitting next to my critically ill husband. He was fine 2 weeks ago, and now he is on a ventilator in the Critical Care Unit. Hospitals are like everything else. Law Enforcement, large corporations, Government agencies. The right...

    Over Protective Gelding

    I have one that is almost that bad. He herds the mares around like a stallion and will not let my other gelding near the mares. Yesterday he was actually breeding one of the mares. This really bothered me so I have him in a stall now. He doesn't have any testicles showing. I bought him as a...
