My maiden mare went into labor on her due date, she had no bag to speak of and she had never loosened the muscles in her back end. After several minutes I saw a red bag start to appear. I quickly opened it and saw one tiny hoof, for just a moment as the mare immediately got up and started...

Hi Everyone, Although I don't post on here much I thought it might be a good way to get the word out to those who haven't heard. Robin Good of Romandaro's Miniature Horses in Smicksburg, PA lost her husband Roger, to a tragic accident last Sat. night. She buried him today the 27th. I know many...

HI Everyone, I don't post on here much anymore but I wanted to let all of you who know Robin Good of Romandaro Miniatures in Smicksburg, PA, know that she lost her husband Roger to a tragic accident last Sat. evening. She buried him today, the 27th. Please everyone, keep Robin in your thoughts...

Just a question for all you breeders. What is the most number of foals you have ever known a mare to have? and what is the oldest you've ever had a mare deliver?

Wanted to post this here and say thank you to Marnie of Sunset Ridge for selling me the gorgeous little mare Westwinds Kolour Me Wilde. Wilde had a beautiful black and white homozygous filly on March 22, sired by her lovely stallion Image. What a wonderful little package : Thanks soooo much...

Some of you have asked me how the mare that I had bought back in March is doing. She had arrived back here infested with lice and nothing but skin and bones. Here's the pic of her in March when she showed up: Here she is today, doing a lot better, could still probably stand to put on another...

We have a beautiful five year old mare that we have never been able to get in foal. I have owned her since she was a yearling. This year I decided to take her into the clinic and have a uterine scope done to see if we could find a reason. The scoping showed a considerable amount of scarring in...

First, I am the seller in “disgusted with sellerâ€, I’m sure you saw the post, it was aimed at me and my beloved T-Bone. Please take a moment to read this. Last Nov. (six months ago, we have not bred any mares since this) both my weanling filly and the other persons yearling filly both...

Sorry double post

This morning at 4 a.m. Molly delivered a beautiful tovero colt with bright blue eyes by our T-Bone. I've been amazed, I always say colts are soo slow, not this guy! He found the spigot right away, figure out his legs in less than a half hour and was up and nursing. Mom likes to get out pretty...

First, I had posted about Delight who lost her foal to a red bag/dytocia last week. She is home and doing great. The results of the cultures on the placenta that was so discolored came back and there was nothing there but an e-coli infection. Nothing major! That was great news Second, the mare...

Hi everyone, this is our little "black" overo filly born three weeks ago. Please check out the pictures attached. I can't decide what she is. We tested her for the dilute gene thinking she was maybe a smokey black, that came back negative. She is and was born with jet black legs, mane, tail...

We had our second LIVE foal last night. Perfect textbook delivery, took all of eight minutes : Good thing I was watching like a hawk, the sack did not break on it's own. We could have lost another one! What a year it has been. I am sooooo pleased to introduce you to Hidden Timbers Miracle Dust...

Last night my little 30" mare, Delight, went into labor. Before she ever started I felt something was wrong. You know how we mommys know when our children just aren't right! She was acting strangely for her, this was her tenth foal, when labor finally began there was NO presentation. After a...

Hi everyone, just a quick question. I purchased a mare last summer already bred, I was going to name the baby with my farm name. After all, I may not have bred her but she's been here for seven months and I foaled her out. The original breeder is upset that I want to put my farm name on this...

Does anyone else have this problem? Most of the colts and some of the fillies are so easy to name, just pull a name out of the air that seems to fit reasonably well and that's fine. When those really special ones come along, do you have as much trouble finding that "PERFECT" name as I do? This...

After last weeks tragic loss of Dreamers colt this was a badly needed blessing. Cherry foaled a beautiful black and white overo filly last night at 11:30. All went perfectly, thank goodness, couldn't have taken another tragedy. She's friendly, likes to suck on my nose : Sure needed this little...

This morning our Dreamer went into labor, she wasn't due until May 27. Nothing was emerging, I called the equine hospital and told them I was on my way. We arrived 40 minutes later, her water had broken. They checked her and ran her straight into the surgery room, half hour later they finally...

This is a plea to those of you who haven't been around the minis very long. I bought back one of the most beautiful mares I ever owned. When she stepped off of the trailer I couldn't believe my eyes, I just wanted to CRY. She was a skeleton with a little skin and a lot of raggy hair attached...

HI, this is my first time on here. Thought this might be a good place to ask where we can find mini fun/open shows in the New England area. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Wow! I can't believe the quick response, thank you all so much. The info was actually needed for a very good...
