Thanks for the help. One more question. You mentioned tape worm meds and I saw them at the feed store. I give wormer (I alternate Zimecterin Gold or Equimectrin, Equimax, etc.) very 6 weeks. Do I need to add a tape wormer too? No one ever told me to get a tape wormer?? I don't want to take any...

I'd like to get a daily wormer for my three boys. I need to know Brand? Link to purchase? Should I rotate? Can I put in their feed? How much? Any problems? Thanks, Robin

I don't think he is a miniature but he is small and SMART.

I don't understand. Where are they? How much to import? Rabbit is a real cuttee! Just asking-- the whole reason we want a Gypsy cobbis for my son to ride so a smaller Gypsy would be perfect. I was just curious if there was a miniature gypsy. The reason I want this breed is becasue they do so...

I can relate. I recently had surgery and was unable to see my babies for over 3 weeks. Now I can visit at the fence. Not only have I missed them but they don't understand where I have been. I usually spend a minimum of an hour a day with them and now nothing for weeks-- they had strangers...

I wasn't able to log in for months (only lurk) so I'm playing catch up. Heres some of my babies: http://1178100224.slide.com/p/1/Miniature+Horses and a few in this one (tomato eating horses) http://1178100224.slide.com/p/1/How+to+Make+Salsa I love seeing all your photos. Robin

I feed him alone successfully. Wheww. I was worried. I guess I separate them. I need to think about gelding this spring. Thanks for your help. Robin

I love the Gypsy horses. I have minatures but I'm thinking of getting a Gypsy Cobb to ride. Anyone know of anyone trying to breed a miniature with a gypsy? Is this possible? moral? Forgive my ignorance. I know zilch about breeding. Don't jump on me if this is no ethical--I'm asking--what if a...

I have three stallions. Comanche and Toby are almost 3 and Bobbles is 5. Commanche is the alpha. I recently had surgery before I went into the hospital I moved their buckets from the barn to the fence so I could feed them without going in the paddock (until I recover). Every morning and...

I'm fairly newto caring for horses (6 months). It rained here for about a week solid. My paddock area was a big soup puddle. A few days after everything stunk. I assume it was the older straw that was buried under the mud and mixed with manure. I shoveled most of it up and spread new straw and...

What a great idea--I am a dummy. I was walking 2 miles 4 x a week until I got my minis--I stopped because I was busy taking care of them--it never occurred to me to take them on a walk. I miss my walks. I live in a equestrian neighborhood where every one has 3 or more acres. Not a lot of...

I read that you should harrow in very hot or cold weather to avoid the spreading parasites. Do you mean just mow over it? Thanks, Robin

Stunning! Have pics of her other side? I want to see her mane. Great looking horse. :aktion033: Robin

I'm green and learning. I've read a lot of books about minis, grooming, training etc. but I neglected to learn about pasture management. For any other newbies out there: #1 thing I wish I would have known. I have 3 minis on one acre of pasture. I wish I would have known to divide the pasture...

I have really had it with this soup. I found this online. I'm ordering stone dust in the morning. >>>>>>>>>>> Re-Route Water. Divert rain and other run-off water away from areas that are prone to making mud. Install rain gutters or curtain drains on buildings, and install downspouts in...

I'd like to know more. I've been putting out straw my whole paddock is like soup. I muck my paddock --how hard is it to shovel poop from the rock dust? THanks, Robin

Its been raining all week (Northern VA) and my paddock is like a mud slide. I've been slipping and sliding so I this morning I bought and put out several bales of straw. This straw is yellow and my three guys to town eating it--Completely ignoring the dry hay in the barn. Previously they...

I don't have any mares (maybe thats why they are doing so well) They are in a large paddock or one of the one acre pastures. After the first day they are doing great. I made my descision to keep them together ater reading http://www.grandin.com/inc/animals.in.translation.ch4.html The author...
