Hi! - It's been quite some time since I've been here. I hope I'm welcome back. I dispersed my herd about 7 years ago. Some of you might remember my appys and pintos, I would like to hear from anyone who owns a "Little Wee" prefix horse. When a horse is sold, the seller hopes they go to the best...

It can be a hormone imbalance.

It has been about a year since we sold out our entire herd in a retirement move. But, how I miss those little ones at foaling time. That was my favorite part of the whole thing. But on the other hand, I'm sort of glad I no longer need to worry about where they'll go or how they will be cared...

Lisa -- How about deeogee. You know, spelling out "D-O-G." DeeOGee, with the emphasis on the O. - k

Hi - Questions I think you need to have the answers to before any authority is approached: How much does the lot where the mini is vary from what is required for a horse? What is the minimum lot required for a horse? What is the zoning for the area the mini is in? What is the general law in...

I'm so sorry for your loss.

I saw the pygmy horse thing too & hated it. It would be very confusing if I didn't know anything about miniatures. Some years ago, someone came to our farm looking for "Tom Thumb" breed & claimed they were the smallest in the world. I said I wasn't familiar with them and they acted like I was...

Since this sounds like a group feeding situation (correct me, please, if I'm wrong) just a word of caution -- if they chase her other than eating, it may be that she is not getting enough to eat anyway. It could be they are so preoccupied with eating that they allow her in to eat, but then want...

I just remembered another one....... I was fixing the corner of the pasture fence, down by the intersection. A fellow pulled over in his truck & started asking me questions about the minis. I'm not shy & was glad to share with him. Well, shortly into the conversation, he started screaming at me...

A few years ago, a family stopped in (not unusual at all) but the mom demanded that I show her the horses, saying it was the middle of the afternoon & I should be "open." I always showed the horses to whoever asked, but this woman was abusive LONG before we approached the barn. She also...

If you look at any media that carries advertising -- the advertising follows the subject. Look at TV, for example. You won't find too many women's products advertised during NASCAR presenations. Or you won't find very many men's products on soap operas. Watch the news.........it's selling cars...

I knew him as a foal. He was, well, McNifficent! Loved him. He was bred by Linda Dunn in PA. She's been into minis for a very long time & had some nice horses. I'd love to see a pix of him now? -- karen Couldn't wait & went to your website.........yep, he's still beautiful!

My question, then, would be -- what else do you need to hear to get you to understand? I think we've been pretty inclusive. But if you don't understand by what's been said here, I don't think you'll get it. Sorry, that's the way I see it.

I am not familiar with EIA or its effects, since it is virtually non-exisitant where we are located. I have not, however, heard of EIA developing into a joint ill situation. But, I do know somewhat of joint ill. We had a foal with it one time. The survival rates for it are quite low, but with...

We bred miniatures for decades and only in the very beginning did we stand a stud to outside mares. The experience brought with it: A mare kicking me square in the stomach when I tried to hand breed her. With both feet, mind you. The owners of another mare deciding they wanted to take her home...

They look very interesting, but there's no price indication anywhere. That's really irritating on any website. How much are they? What are shipping costs? And "how to order" should be right there too. I'm sorry, but I think these things should be right up front on the stie, as on any site with...

When our farm was really at it's fullest, we'd look out at the herd & try count horses. There could be 3 of us standing & counting & we'd all get different answers! They were almost all appaloosa & trust me, those spots run together just like a herd of zebra stripes. They fool the eye. After...

Hi Geri!! How's my boy doing?? As to the water, I'd suggest starting them at home with a peppermint hard candy in their water to flavor it. You know, red & white, round, hard as heck. Then when they go to the new place, continue the peppermint things for a while until they are accustomed. It...

I just wanted to remind folks that because horses have the same prefix does not mean they are related in any way. MANY times, just came from the same farm/breeder. I have sold many pairs as breeding pairs. Both members of the pair had the same "Little Wee " prefix, but they were not related in...
