These photos are so great and torture for someone wanting a mini so badly. But keep them coming,it is good torture.

@horsehug Sounds as if your Shetlands are practical for where you live. Shetlands are a bit short and squat compared to conventional sized horses? And your explanation of Mini's being a marketing of some Shetlands, way-back-when, makes sense also. How far back are Miniture horses...

I'm down in SE and we are having inches of rain. Under flash flood watches. In a town near me, they have a dip in the road that goes under a RailRoad overpass. Old fashioned kind. It flooded enough to be to the top of a regular car when someone didn't believe the road blocks and went...

So great you have some sunshine. We are starting on a week of rain here in the SE. I think it would be easy for a mini horse to get up to it's knees in mud before much longer.

They are so beautiful, and what a nice pasture you have for them.

Guess that must be where they had horse hair in old sofa cushions and the like. Or sold it for horsehair braid that looks nothing like horsehair to me. My grandmother use to sew a lot, so I heard the term from her. Do most minis like being brushed to have the undercoat taken out when it...

Such a beautiful Mare. Approximately how soon before the baby should arrive?

Hi @diamond c Could you try an 8 inch pan? I think it would be great fun to try a pie or biscuits or a cake. I just found this video about making biscuits. That mention of putting 1/4 to 1/3 of heat on bottom, and rest on top. I would have never thought of that.

Hi all, I was doing some research on the internet and came across this site and I'm wanting a Mini horse at some time, maybe during this year. What are the main differences between Miniature Horses and Shetland Ponies? And why would you choose one over the other? I'm trying to decide...
