I too use a golf cart to exercise my show horses. My golf cart is electric, very quiet and can go slow or somewhat fast if I want the horse to canter beside me instead of trotting. Most of the time I make them work at a fast trot. I just taught an 11 month filly how to work on the golf cart. I...

I need help finding reputable quarantine and exporting facilities in Texas. I noticed Oasis is no longer doing it and have moved to AZ. I have found one so far, Shortview Export. Also I remember there was a post on a Texas quarantine facility NOT to use. Could someone please message me with the...

What are the chances of a breeding stallion who was not cryptorchid in his younger years to become cryptorchid later on (10-13 years old)? Has anyone had that happen before? Please share your opinions and experiences.

I see your point but would have to disagree with splitting up Amateur and AOTE championahip class. I started showing Amha last year and this year was able to start showing in AOTE. I honestly trained and conditioned my own horses that have never been trained by a professional trainer. At my...

Brush brush brush. Everyday. My pregnant mares are starting to shed like crazy, but with the weather like it is, one day warm and the next day rain or cold I will not shave them. February is not a good time to shave horses anyways. Just brush daily, twice daily if you need/want to. You can use a...

I have a mare registered with Cottontails name. That's all I know though. Sorry couldn't be of help.

Thanks for your replies everyone. I am still wanting to see if anyone out there has used this exact camera. I may just order it and hope that it will work. It sounds really good.

Has anyone purchased this camera for their barn? I came across this website and found this wireless camera that I think will work for me. I was told to go with a "wired" camera because of the longer distance from the house to the barn. I am not sure what the distance is between house and barn...

I give Rabies, West Nile, Tetanus, and Rhino. Pregnant mares get Rhino at 5,7, and 9 months. Firm believer in giving all the necessary shots to all the horses whether they are for showing, breeding or just pets. I also don't understand why some breeders don't vaccinate foals when they are old...

Could I ask whats great about your stallion that you must keep him as a breeding stallion? Great stallions make the best geldings and are more enjoyable because they don't have hormones. I have several colts and stallions and one by one I am planning on having them gelded. One of the stallions...

I know how you feel. I am dying to do full body clips on all of mine. Perhaps you can try clipping just their heads with #8 and see how they do. That way they still have body hair, but you'll be able to see their pretty faces

Are you buying or selling an AMHA horse? You don't have to worry about transfer fee if you are the seller. Buyer pays the transfer fee and it is $15 if the horse is transfered within 6 months of the sale date. If transfer is sent in after 6 months of the sale date, the fee is $25. As a seller...

I can't answer your question because I don't know the answer. But, I just wanted to say that I head and necked some of my show horses in January and they do just fine. Of course I only clipped them with #10 so that the hair can still grow fast. Right now we have been having a lot of rain lately...

Thank you Diane

You are right. Thank you for reminding me.

I would like to know how many foals my stallion has sired in the past before I purchased him. He is AMHA and AMHR. Can anyone help me out? Pretty please Send a reply and I will message with his registered name.

Here's what would be a problem for me. Keeping all those minis together in one pasture. You have bred mares, yearling and younger and an older stallion. Here is what I would do: seperate youngest horses into their own pasture (yearlings and younger), seperate bred mares into their own pasture...

Sounds like our farm we just bought. Didn't know when we bought it that pastures were full of garbage including sharp glass and beer bottles. It was overgrown by weeds.The farm sat empty for couple of years so pastures weren't cared for. I don't have an answer for you but what we do is just go...

How long have you had this mare? Did you buy her already in foal or bred her yourself? I ask because I wondered why you asked about what shots she should have. In my opinion, she should already have yearly shots (as well as any shots that require 6 months boosters). If you bought her in foal and...

Couple months ago I thought about changing my farm name. I paid to have my farm name reserved with both associations a couple years ago. I had e-mailed both AMHA and AMHR and asked what I would have to do if I want to change the name and reserve a new one. They said I would have to fill out a...
