    Does anyone know what kind of cart this is?

    (I'm assuming it's ok to post these pictures since they are in a book....)? It looks like a K-Bike (or similar) to me, but the book was published in 2007 ( says photograph copyright is 2005). I don't think the K-Bike was around then, was it? Anyway, any info is appreciated 🥰 Thank you.

    Wild Oats?

    I opened a new bale of hay this morning and found quite a few of these in it. I think it may be wild Oats (after an internet search), but, I'm not sure... Does anyone know what this is? Thank you in advance for any help 😄😍

    Age estimate

    Kazoo's sale ad listed his age at 7 yrs. I didn't think to ask how she knew/determined his age.... A few days ago I caught him yawning....looks to me like he's more like 11 - 12 yrs. I don't really care how old he is...just nice to know. Opinions 😁? (He got his old halter off...no doubt with...

    Horse/mule bite?

    Just noticed Prince has this swelling on his neck/throat...there's a couple of places missing hair. Does it look like he could have been bitten by Kazoo (most likely) or Farah (less likely)? Prince and Kazoo do play rough...I've seen Prince bite him on the crest...maybe I shouldn't let them...

    Diet Advice for Mini Mule

    Kazoo will be here tomorrow He is quite overweight. The current owner (who has only had him a few months...and he was overweight when she got him) admitted to overfeeding...she's giving him Timothy pellets as well as grass hay (I believe Timothy and Bermuda), occasionally some alfalfa, and...

    Opinions on mini mule

    Saw an ad for a project mini mule. I was under the impression he was gelded, but when I spoke to the owner she said he wasn't. So we would definitely have to have him gelded ASAP....but he's around 7 years old...and just reading at the American Donkey and Mule Society site it recommended...

    So stressed....

    WARNING: Venting So, I keep Prince (my pony) at my brother and sister in law's house. I don't usually go over there on the weekends because they run their business out of the house, and the weekend is the only time they don't have other people coming and going (I work in the office so I'm there...

    Does this look like small pony size?

    I ordered the small pony size (under 12 hands) because he's around 42-43 inches....but it looks ginormous 😂 I don't think I can adjust it either...I hate having to return things. I better check the harness in case it has to go back too 😣 I really hate how the noseband doesn't lie flat...

    Are Donkeys Noisy

    My sister in law is considering getting a donkey. My husband told me he used to live next to someone that had a donkey and "it was worse than a rooster" ...he said every morning at dawn it would start braying...and it was LOUD 🤣 Is that typical of donkeys or was it just that one? It wouldn't...

    Buddy sour horse left behind, what to do?

    I wrote a huge, long post .... then realized it was probably more than anyone wanted to know 😝 I've been trying to exercise Prince more, but when I take him out, Farah (20 yr old Arab mare with a messed up leg) loses it...she'll run back and forth, calling for him. I don't want her doing that...

    Do you tip the hay delivery guy?

    I've always boarded, so this wasn't something I had to think about before :) I'm going to have hay delivered tomorrow ..... so, do you tip the guy that delivers the hay? If so, how much? Thank you!!

    Dually Halter

    Has anyone used a Dually halter? Are they worth the price? Prince is starting to get a little stubborn, but he's still quite a bit nervous as well .... from the description it seems like it might be better than a rope halter. Thank you in advance 😊

    Long Toes

    I'm looking for a larger miniature horse or smaller pony to eventually drive. Recently there has been a 6 yr old ASPC gelding posted on my local CL. I keep looking at his ad and going back and forth on him for several reasons ..... He's a tiny bit taller than I was considering and I was...
