    Choosing boots

    @Standards Equine please post a picture of Jasmine in the high tops when you get them! @Marsha Cassada ~ I know Mindy from Chimicum talked about using pads for between sizes. I really like the Fusion boots too.

    Pasture intake per hour

    I usually feed twice day and do an hour of turn out in between the morning and evening feeds this time of year when the grass is dry. They are easy to catch and happy to come back in after an hour so it works for us. On days I don't do turn out I just throw them some more hay before I go out...

    @Kelly if you want taller horses, just start doing CDEs. They measure at the withers. :) Kind of funny too with all the precise measuring you can have a different unverified measurement recorded on your registration papers. My friend says she has seen people throwing a fit at a show when...

    I do like Tonto too though. His coloring and pattern seems fitting for it. We need to see his face! 😊

    Opinions on mini mule

    Yay! Good job! Maybe now you can catch him rub his forehead and release right away each day until it's no big deal. You two are on your way!!!

    Pasture intake per hour

    I have 3 horses and when they are given the same amount of hay, one of them finishes an hour before the other two, and she is eating out of the smallest hole nibble net while the other two are fed loose hay so I would do the test if you are concerned.

    It's hot here too, but we have drip systems set on a timer, otherwise I wouldn't have anything either!

    Pasture intake per hour

    @trails4jd~Weigh out a pound of hay and give it to your horse and time how long it takes him to consume it. Then you have a rough idea of how much time to let him out for that equals around a pound. Not an exact science, but it will be close.

    Your Drive Day

    Just one of the many reason a lot of full size horse people think we are ridiculous. The man down the street that drives percherons laughed in my face when I showed him a harness. He thought they looked like Barbie clothes. Kelly if you want Breezy to measure taller, better do it before he...

    Mysterious wound

    Can't wait to see the new horses you are picking up! Hope DD feels better and that he'll get a good compainion. I'd go for the gelding. I keep my bossy mare apart from my geldings most of the time because she harasses them.

    Your Drive Day

    Our horse park here where the CDE's are held had the horse show people come out for a day to do free measurements so competitors would be in the correct divisions...Pony vs VSE. There is a big division here between show people and CDE people. I have two friends that will do both, but only to...

    Your Drive Day

    @Edelweiss ~ She measures 37" at the last hair of her mane. My other two are 35". She probably appears shorter in a photo because this cart seat is much higher than other EE carts which gives me more leg room. I am only 5'7" but my legs are long, so in other EE carts my knees were higher...

    Gardening

    We are getting a really good harvest this year! We also have eggplant, strawberries, cantaloupe and honeydew melons. Even though I thinned our peach tree it still snapped with all the fruit. Ate so much pie and cobbler I can't look at a peach for a while! And plums galore! Now I need to...

    Your Drive Day

    A friend brought her two grandsons over this morning. They had never been around horses, but were naturals and wanted to learn everything! We had so much fun and the entire time they kept asking if they could come back. Annie was so good with them. @Edelweiss...This is a pumpkin! She is 37"...
