Hi, I am asking this question on behalf of a friend that has 2 rescue horses that live on our property. Ted is a rescue that our friends,had brought in on Christmas Eve, he is around 2 years old. A week or so after he he arrived here they had noticed a large lump on the side of his face. He...

Hello, I was just wanting to see what people's opinions on what Kevin is. He is around 41 inches? I will check his height properly tomorrow. And a mini is usually under 38 inches aren't they? But If his parents were miniatures does that make him a mini regardless? I have owned his mother she...

We finally got the boys Castrated! I have been wanting to get my Kevin gelded for way over a year now, I finally got the money to cover the costs myself, our friends keep their 2 rescue horses on our property, they got them gelded too. Having 3 horses done reduces the costs a bit for travel...

Hi all! Today I went and treated myself with my money. Instead of buying more horse things I really don't need, I bought a new addition to my "Little Farm". I was so lucky to get this little girl, using the Facebook "Buy, sell, swap" page, I found her for sale. I was lucky to get in and say...

Hello, Within the next couple of weeks I am going to be gelding Kevin. Then I want to carry on with some training, pretty much desensitizing and some basic things, which he is surprisingly really good with. I want to make him my walking buddy to start with, and get him out and about and seeing...

Hello, In the next few weeks I am getting my Kevin gelded. We also have a rescue horse living here called Banjo, and his owner Tenae wants him gelded as well. And its cheaper for both of us in vet travel fees if we get them both done on the same day. Anyway, we called some vets and they said...

Hello, Does anyone have some advice on teaching a horse to stop pawing? Snickas is really bad for it, when you approach her with food, sometimes without food, she paws like crazy... She also paws the steel gate which is really loud and irritating. She is a very greedy girl, and loves her food...

Hi, So I really need to geld my 2 year old colt Kevin. He has been very 'studdish' and I am not experienced enough to handle a studdish horse. He is very strong and could become dangerous as I experienced today. He is normally very laid back and easygoing, now he isn't. I just wanted to know...

Hi, I just have a quick question about my little Texas, she is 3 months now. Sometimes when I am out with her she rears up at me for no reason, I'm not sure if this is her 'playing' because she does it to her mum too. But she has her ears back when she does. Its normally when she is bundled up...

Guess what!! I have been accepted for a Photography position at the RSPCA Animal Rescue! Its volunteer work, but it gives me a chance to finally express my passion and start gaining some experience! I'm pretty excited, I'll be taking photos of the animals for their adoption profiles, plus...

Hello, I have a couple questions that have been on my mind that I wanted to ask. This question is more of opinion, but when you bath your horse, do you let him off to roll, or do you keep him off the dirt and rug him. I have watched videos in the past, some wash and let them roll, some rug...

Hi, We have a bad mice problem here. We are constantly killing mice in our house and they aren't just in our house they are down the paddock and in our hay. I have a section of our shelter blocked off with our hay in it to protect it from the weather. I am guessing with this cold weather, they...

Hi Just wanted to know if its normal for my mare Snickas to be shedding. We are coming into winter soon and she had started growing her winter coat, then she foaled (April) and is loosing it all again. Like its falling out, If I run my hands down her back I have a handful of furr and of a...

I have another question. Not about Snickas or Texas. So on the 25th of Nov 2015 I wrote down the date Toby went over Willow. Its been 7 months now? I haven't seen him crazy over her since. At 7 months would she be really big if she was pregnant? I haven't really checked her for a while now so I...

I love this one of my two beautiful girls In these photos she looks brown, the way the sun is shining in her. But she actually does not look one bit brown, she has a pure black mane and a black stripe down her back and down her tail, pretty much black up the top and then lighter into grey...

Hi. I am just a bit curious about the way Kevin holds his tail. When he is out eating he will hold his tail up so it isnt touching his bum, its not lifted crazy high. If i walk up to him he will put it back down. I am just concerned if it is a sign of pain. I can touch his tail and...

Hi. I can't decide what to do with Kevin's mane. He has torn out a chunk of hair in the middle and it looks horrible. The little terror, I spent months growing it out. I don't know if he tor it out playing, scratching or when they scratch eachother. Does anyone have a suggestion? I can't...

Hi, I have been trying to sell my Harness, I have had a few people interested and some have asked what type of leather it is. Some asked if it is 'Indian Leather' or 'Australian Leather' But I wouldn't have a clue. It has no brand/stamp on the leather anywhere. Is there any way I can Identify...
