My daughter is learning to cart soon with her mini. We have the cart but need harness advise. She is 33" and knows exactly what she's doing, we are the newbies I see so many online and I am a bit frazzled there are so many out there. I don't want her to have a show one just yet. So what is...

We have a 8 yr old Welsh mare that is just the most wonderful girl. She does all the good stuff and is very sweet with my daughters 14 and 4. We love her so much. The plan was for my 14 yr old to keep her "to parr" in her manners, ground work, neck reining and leg ques etc...until my 4 yr old...

Long story short our colt Rosco is going to be 20 days old tomorrow. I had knee surgery in March and a bit limited still. My daughter is 13 and excellent with her mini Barbie, the foals dam. She has him halter trained and has begun the leading and he is doing fine (for her) Rosco is...

I am calling my vet tomorrow to see what he has to say, but why would mare and the foal be eating her poop? I was out this evening and noticed our foal eating some of mom's poop. :new_shocked: then about an hour later I noticed momma eating her own poop. Has anyone else ever seen this before...

We had to call the vet out yesterday for our little Rosco, Barbie's foal. He was 3 days old yesterday and he was rolling and thrashing about. The vet has given us meds to give him for the next 5 days. He is a good boy and is taking it fine. They had to put a tube in him and put 250 cc of a...

I have been reading a lot lately about the mares foaling so late, not just mini's but full size horses too. So I am thinking that is has a lot to do with how our seasons have been changing so much and the winters have been running long and late. Now us humans go by our calendar so we have...

We named him Rosco. He is such a little pistol. I can't believe how quick they are up and nursing, walking, and bucking too :lol: it is the cutest thing to watch. Barbie is such a good mommy, she was not feeling good at all and was down alot, but when he would start to nuzzle around her to...

Our mare Barbie is in foal now and was bred to the same stallion that she was bred to last time. My question is would it be safe to assume that the foal would come out the same color as last time?

Here is a post from another site I keep up with and thought some of us here might have 5 or 10 bucks to spare to help him. Read his story if you get time. If you cross post then a lot of people with a few bucks can make a big difference for this ole guy. Prayer are always a good thing too ...

Hello I just came across this ad and thought I would post here to see if anyone in Washington or elsewhere can handle a little guy like this. Sounds like he needs lots of love and time to retrain?? http://seattle.craigslist.org/zip/149625315.html

Here is a post from another site I go to that I thought should be in everyones mental rolodex that owns horses. Maybe put the article on your clipboard thats in the barn so if it comes up you don't forget about it. If a vet has not read of the study finding and is just simply not aware it may...

I saw this posted on another horse site I belong too. Thanks for reading: Two miniature horses and 4 goats were stolen from Armona, CA, this morning(?). Taken were a black mini stallion and a palamino mini mare. No description on the goats. The farm is located near the intersection of state...

Hello all :bgrin Since we have gotton Barbie we have kept a light on for her in the barn as it is just her and the two goats in the next stall. We haven't put in a window low enough for her yet and we stall her at night. She is in there from 9pm to 6am. I thought about staying in a stall...

I was up on the deck today getting ready to take some pictures on this sunny day and caught my daughter out in the field with Barbie her mini. She was listening and talking to the foal. It was so cute......

I was wanting to see what others do about graining the broodmares. I have a lot of advise so far and read different things as well. My vet says don't grain until the last 30 day and then during the beggining of lactation. I have heard grain them the whole pregnancy. I have herd grain them in...

Hi all :bgrin , We have never used the clippers before on our mini. Is there a clipper class? Book you recomend? Do we hire and watch and then do our best??? What are the best clippers to get? What is necessary to get and not in the form of clippers and grooming tools. We have the normal...

Hello there I was wondering if there are any members out there that live in Washington state that would like to work together with me to try and line up safe houses, fostering, etc.. for CMHR help. I live in WA also and there are a lot of mini farms and mini lovers out this way that would...
