Poor Sterling is rubbing parts of his face raw from being itchy from flies. We have a Mr. Stinky up, use fly predators, and remove poop, but the few flies we have love Sally's and Sterling's face. Sally has a fly mask which Sterling regularly pulls off. She has Appy eyes, poor thing. I am...

This is Petunia who we have had since November 2019. She was huge when we got her. She's on a straight Bermuda diet, and she really doesn't eat that much! She's gained about an inch a month. We had our vet do a blood pregnancy test. It came back positive, but the vet said the timing wasn't right...

Poor Sally is having a terrible time with flies with her Appy eyes. Sterling, her colt, is three weeks old. Is it safe to spray Sally with fly spray? I have a fly mask on order for both of them. Is it safe to put a fly mask on a foal?

Sorry about the dumb question. I am watching Sally on a baby monitor. The vet said to call when I see contractions (he only lives ten minutes away). Tonight, she has been laying flat out a lot. This is new for her. She usually has her head up and front legs tucked under. Yesterday morning, her...

Good morning! My husband and I adopted a mini horse who had been on her way to becoming zoo food. The rescue told us that she was pregnant, and that when she arrived at the rescue, she was skin and bones. She is not so thin anymore, but her skin is thick. The vet said that was because she had...
