    HPR 2024

    Have 3 mares due this year. Figured I’d share their progress now. If you don’t like pics, here’s a good place to stop lol. First foal is due in the next month or so. Last two are probably going to be end of June or early July. I do have my live camera up for those of you that enjoy foal watch...

    Showing 2024

    Who all is planning on showing this year? I started my boys conditioning this week. I’d love to hear/follow y’all’s process particularly for AMHA/AMHR/ASPC rated shows. Haven’t decided for sure which shows I’ll go to but planning on working it to allow me to go worlds/nationals or MAYBE even both.

    HPR 2023 Foals!

    Hi everyone! Hope all is well. Figured I’d go ahead and share my thread. Got a bit longer to wait but a good way to start tracking progress. Izzy is first up (Firewaters Isidora Of Olympus) and she is bred to my stallion RHA Redis Loaded Dice. This is the mare that unfortunately delivered...

    Who all is expecting foals in 2023?

    Still have some friends waiting on babies, but that doesn’t stop me from looking ahead to next year. Who is expecting babies? I’m hoping for 3! These are my hypothetical crosses. Haven’t confirmed any for sure yet though. Looking at March/April babies (I’m praying for that anyway!) I’d love to...

    Before And After Of Clipping

    Since I’ve started clipping this spring, I figured it would be fun to make this post. Just shows how hard it is to accurately judge a minis weight with a winter coat WITHOUT putting your hands on them. It’s fun to see how different they look haha. Let’s see your before and afters! 1. Yearing...

    HPR 2022 Foals

    And I’m back. Early for this years foal. I have one for sure in foal and one that is anyones guess. First one that would be due is Aristocratic Big City Rhapsody AKA Rhapsody. She’d be 251 days today. I don’t think she’s bred. Had her ultrasounded and it was inconclusive. Haven’t felt movement...

    AMHR Nationals/AMHA Worlds

    Anyone watching AMHR Nationals right now? Or planning to watch AMHA Worlds? It's been super fun to watch with HUGE classes this year. Some classes are so big they have had to split them. They did charge for it this year since they did not sell enough banners. But it is only $9.99 for the two...

    Showing Off

    Thought it would be fun to see some pictures of those minis showing off their moves. These are a few of my personal favorites of my own.

    Belle 2021

    I thought I was long done foaling this year. But apparently I was wrong. My little black mare evidently snuck a date with my stallion sometime last year. I was wondering cause I was going to breed her for a foal next year and she wouldn’t come into season earlier this year. Fast forward to now...

    High Plains Foal Season 2021

    Well, the spring did not quite go as I planned. With grad school, I have been very busy. Only expecting 1 foal in 2021. A new mare to me but I am very excited about her foal. She is 168 days along, which puts day 300 on April 12th. Still a long time to go, but figured I might as well start this...

    Izzy 2020

    Well, I was looking at getting another mare to replace one that I am selling. I came home with two. This is Firewaters Isidora of Olympus. she was pasture bred and is supposedly "due" any day now. There were two other mares with her and they foaled 3 weeks ago. Her udder still is not impressive...

    Hopeful for 2020

    Okay, I’m really hoping my eyes aren’t deceiving me (they have before). This is one of my minis that I am really hoping is in foal. She is 32.5 inches. She was bred in late April. Haven’t seen a heat since. The first picture was July. The second picture is normal winter body. Third picture is...

    Clipping unruly horses

    I thought about posting on one of the other topics but I didn’t want to hijack it so here’s my own... I have a couple of minis who absolutely REFUSE to let me clip their eats and lower legs. Nothing has worked. I’ve had them for 1.5-3 years. I’ve tried so many different ways. Typically they...

    Information Look Up

    Hi, I apparently lost one of my minis pedigree report from AMHA. I was just curious if anyone here wouldn't mind looking it up real quick and sending it to me? His name is RHA Redis Loaded Dice. Thank You!

    Training Specific Actions

    Hello, I just got my girl back from the trainer. She is driving very well. My question is, if I were to work with her to teach her the type of stuff seen at shows, how would I go about it? As in the pleasure trot vs the extended trot? Also good head carriage? I know she can really extend, I...

    Conformation Ideals

    I know there is a thread similar to this started, but I don't want to hijack it. I'm hoping to start showing this summer and I was wondering what y'all like in conformation? I am thinking halter and possibly driving. One of the horses I am considering showing has been shown at World as a...

    Driving styles

    I am attempting to train my minis to drive and I was just wondering if I could get some tips? Also how do y'all decide what style of driving works with a mini? I have been looking at all the different classes and I just can't decide.

    What to look for when showing?

    I am considering showing for the first time this summer. The horse I'd be showing is my two year old colt, Littl Americas Secrets Crescendo. He has Dilver Meadows Phantom Storm, Orion Light Vant Huttenest, Dels Cowboy etc. in his lineage. I want to drive him next summer so I was thinking maybe...

    Color Question

    So this might be a very simple question, but I was just wondering. I have a miniature mare that is 4 years old and registered as a bay. However, she definitely appears black to me, even if she is sun bleached. Her sire is a beautiful black and her dam is a palomino. When I clipped her this...
