    Brand new member of my herd!

    I told him what you said and he said he didn't care, she could be purple with a rainbow mane and he'd love her anyway.... rotfl I keep losing him and finding him out there with her... he's hooked. My life could well get very complicated now. lol He doesn't do anything half way, she'll have a...

    Brand new member of my herd!

    Hi folks, my husband has been getting so attached to my minis, and he had decided he wanted one of his own. A good friend of mine had just adopted this little lady and she needed a good home so she contacted me. She hadn't had much, if any, hands on and her coat had rain rot on it, which is...

    Your First Miniature.....

    This will be long, my apologies in advance, but to tell you the story of them, it can't be helped. lol I grew up very hard, the only bright spot in my childhood at all was my grandfather, and he protected me from things that no child should ever have to go thru. I remember I'd go and spend time...

    Bedding advice please?

    This actually makes the perfect sense. It's NOT raining or anything today, it's actually sunny out, so today is the day we take this bull by the horns. I didn't think of the chat, but that's a great idea. My husband keeps saying it is a leak in the top of this shelter, but that's not where the...

    Bedding advice please?

    We have decided to build a floor in it, it'll fix the problem and I won't have to worry about them eating it. I am seriously terrified that a coupe of them will eat it, they are both munch heads and will eat anything they can reach. They get plenty to eat, and you can tell, they get all of that...

    Bedding advice please?

    We built this one ourselves too and it works wonderfully until we get loads of rain like we've been getting. The kick in the head is that we built it on the highest spot on the 1 acre lot we bought specifically for them, so we thought that would work great, but as MY luck always goes, we built...

    Bedding advice please?

    It's me again, you can all run and hide again if you like... GO!! lol I'll try not to go too long winded here this time. We usually don't have too much rain, so I have a run in, nice enough size and they all do well in it..... until the past week, and the rain has been coming by the...

    Getting a camera for my minis - help

    Hi, it's me again. I've been looking all over for a good camera to put on my horses pen without breaking me to do it. I am a very computer savy person, been working on and building them since 1986, but when it comes to cameras, I swear I am about as useless as they come. Do any of you have any...

    Good and bad news - my first pregnant minis

    I am going to try and get some better pics of him, he is such a spoiled brat that I can't seem to get any of all of him because the instant he hears me coming, he's in my face... so FACE pics are easy, the rest is not. And he's very hard to sneak up on. lol

    Good and bad news - my first pregnant minis

    I have her in a stall right now. I've been swapping them out between him and her and both are never out at the same time. It's only for a couple of days, so I think they should be ok with this. Providing it doesn't rain, the other pen will be ready within 48 hours, and if not, the Vet will be...

    Good and bad news - my first pregnant minis

    I am calling the Vet this morning to make the appointment for that. I want to get that fence done this weekend, if the rain ever stops, and then get him done when I can put him in his own pen. I'd hate it if he got that done and one of the girls kicked him... But yes, that makes perfect sense...

    Good and bad news - my first pregnant minis

    No, I absolutely don't want anymore surprises, that's for sure. My plan was to let him and Tori have one baby and then get him gelded, as I am not into this for the breeding... like I said, I wanted my daughter and I to have that experience one time, but as for breeding them or anything like...

    Good and bad news - my first pregnant minis

    I tell you one thing I am definitely learning, and that is if someone wants to rid themselves of a horse, they will tell you anything they think you want to hear to get it off their land and onto yours. I've never seen anything like it in any other animal, it's very intense. And if it isn't them...

    Good and bad news - my first pregnant minis

    No, as I mentioned, it wasn't full term. From what I was able to remember to tell the vet and another girl that helps me along the way and from what I gathered from google... it appears that she was about 4-5 months at the very most. I knew the instant I seen it that it was not full term, it was...

    Good and bad news - my first pregnant minis

    Thankfully I don't sleep much as it is. I never have. I am in bed by 2-3 AM and back up at 6 Am without an alarm clock.. so I don't require a great deal of sleep. That really comes in handy when things like this come up. We learned about colic with Banner, and i was out there with him until...

    Good and bad news - my first pregnant minis

    I like to think I have a handle on it, but I am finding out I have a ton more to learn, but I am enjoying doing it and I spend as much time as I can with them and when not with them, reading and learning as much as I can. My 14 yr old daughter is obsessed with them. Sky belongs to her and she is...

    Good and bad news - my first pregnant minis

    This is Banner in the pic my husband was sent to make him buy this baby for me for Valentine's Day. Hi goal was not for breeding purposes, nothing other than getting this little guy for me as a surprise and getting Peebie a friend to help her thru issues we were having with her. This is what he...

    Good and bad news - my first pregnant minis

    Unfortunately I didn't save anything for the vet when she got here, she scolded me a little about that one as well. I pray it doesn't happen again so I won't have to do it. But yes, I did at least do that one thing smart, I called a Vet later in the day when she opened and I could get them here...

    Good and bad news - my first pregnant minis

    I went out Monday morning to feed my babies, like I always do and noticed something beside the stall and thought someone had been throwing objects into my horses pen and boy was I ever mad. It looked like a red towel from the distance I was seeing it from. I went into the shed, got their hay...
