Hi Everyone! My rescue colt, Big Boy, will be gelded on Friday. (thank God! ) The last time I had a colt gelded I was lucky enough to be able to drop him off with his breeder and pick him up a week later!! SO, I want to know if there is anything I should make certain of either with...

Just wondering if anyone uses anything in or on the hooves to prevent those darn ice balls from building up and making the poor babies walk on stilts? I've heard of globbing vasaline in the hoof or spraying a non stick cooking spray in them. Anyone try anything that's safe and works? Thanks...

Hi Everyone! If you have been to the Orpheum in Boston, can you tell me if the "mezzanine seats" hang over the orchestra (floor) seats or is the mezzanine further back then the orchestra seats? Trying to decide between almost last row on the floor or front row in the mezzanine!!!!! Thanks a...

Hi Everyone! My colt is now 5 1/2 months old and I want to know if it's ok to have him out with my mares. He was EXTREMELY studdish when he was with his mom up until a month and a half ago, even actually breeding her (not just mounting, actually breeding!)! I weaned him and have had him in...

Hi Everyone! My 5 1/2 month old colt is still scratching!!!! He has rubbed one of his shoulders bald and is rubbing his butt and neck on the fence! I suspect lice although I haven't actually seen any. His shed does have a few bird nests in it!! Ugh! Maybe ringworm? But don't know where the...

Hi Everyone! I haven't posted in ages! Been busy busy busy! Many of you will remember the story of my rescue mare, Freedom. I took her in to foster her for New England Equine Rescues back in Dec. She had come through the New Holland Auction with 30 other mini mares and bought up by a...

Hi Everyone! Boy, I was rewarded bigtime when I took in Freedom! (my rescue mare that was bought up by a kill buyer at auction in Dec!) Took a gamble on her having no idea that this beauty was cooking inside! Funny cause from the day I discovered that she was in foal (when I was brushing...

Hi Everyone! As many of you know I helped to rescue 1 of 30 mares that were bought up by a kill buyer at auction back in Dec. Brought her to my backyard to quarantine her for a month and then planned to move her over to the farm where I keep my other 3 mini's. The mare, whom we named...

Hi Everyone! Sorry if this has been asked a hundred times, I just want to be sure! I wormed Freedom within the first two hours after foaling 6 weeks ago today! So now what? I was told to put Freedom back on her regular worming schedule but what about the colt? Do I just start worming him...

Hi Everyone! Freedom's colt is 4 weeks old today! When should I start offering him his own grain and how much? He does try to eat with his mom but she pushes him out most of the time. Thank You!! Tammy

Hi Everyone! Freedom's colt is 3 weeks old now and he's rotten to the core!!! lol I definitely need lots of advice on him!!! First I need to tell you that I missed out on the most important handling time with him due to Freedom being EXTREMELY protective with him!!!! She wanted to kill...
