HI all. I just wanted to post a huge thank you. A wee while ago, I started a thread about the GE Nippers, and the barracudas. I got heaps of good advice about these two products and which to purchase. I decided on the GE Nippers as they were easy payment from here in New Zealand and got good...

Can any recommend a great place to buy a pair of the G.E. Nippers 12". I want to look at importing a pair but am not sure who what stockist is good to deal with. Any ideas of good stockists in the USA? Any help greatly appreciated. Sandra

Hi all, I finally convinced my hubby to let me have a donkey. He always said, no, no no!!! But my friend breeds just one or two a year and when I went to visit a big horse I was buying from her. I fell in love with him. I know he is not a true miniature, but he is not a huge donkey either. His...

Hi all, am not sure who in the USA makes rope halters for minis and large horses. I was wondering who currently uses them and where you could recommend to purchase them from. Any ideas would be gratefully appreciated! Sandra

Hi, all. I had my second to last foal born this morning. He is a bit premature but is a stunner. His mum is a palomino and dad is a buckskin. I have put pics below. Hope they are not too big. I am thrilled with him. He is finally the "double dilute"?? that I have been waiting for. I have had...

Hi all. I am looking at investing in some new hoof nippers. I remember someone on here talking about a new style, easy to use one handed and easy for women. They had a spring in them I think. I know they were quite expensive. I was wondering if anyone on the Board owned a pair and/or could...

Hi all, I have to say I have been very jealous watching all your foals parading on here. Being our winter, I could not wait for my first foal to arrive. And arrive he has! I came home to find this boy running around in my paddock today - born during the day, early but happy, and full of life...

Hi all. My darling husband today shocked me by saying he wanted to sort out getting me a barn for my miniatures, and of course his llamas. I have been wanting one for ages, as I only have a small stable/shed and a bay in a old barn. I have done a search on the board and have seen some...

Hi all. I have read with interest all of your different threads re. "where to from here" and those regarding breeding programs in the States, low prices for minis etc. I say I have read them with interest because I can see similar patterns starting to happen here in New Zealand. Sitting among...

Hi all. A friend has a sick mare and foal here in New Zealand. We are wondering if any one has had a similar experience or any advice. The mare has a three month old foal at foot who has become sick. About a week ago the mare had a very enlarged udder, which reduced with 24 hours. The mare...

Hi all, i am a bit of a colour nut when it comes to miniatures, and love to work out what possiblities you can get from different breeding combinations. I was really looking forward to one of the foals on our farm being born. Mum is a palomino with no white at all. Dad is a buckskin minimal...

Hi all from the warm south island of New Zealand. Could not resist sharing this picture with you all. This is my daughter with one of her foals. My daughter, who is three years old, claims all the foals for herself. this particular foal happens to be a pretty special one. She got stuck during...

Hi all, I came home today to find a gorgeous new filly foal running around the paddock. I knew mum was close and she has been alarmed but waited for the nice warm sun to have her girl. She is a very rich bay in colour, has long legs and a friendly disposition. Born 31st October, Halloween, New...

Hi, we have had three days of torrential rain here in the South Island of New Zealand. Have been keeping a very close eye on my mares but none were too close to foaling. This morning, found a wee wet bundle sitting in front of his mummy, very cold and wet. Needless to say, rushed into survival...
