    Round Bales

    We feed round bales. All our bales are stored inside a big morton building, then attached to that morton is another building, that building has a overhang type of cattle shed. We can pick up a round bale with skid loader and drive right into the other building, sit it down and then the horses...

    Have any of you tried Fly Predators?

    We have a bunch of guinea's that are really good at eating ticks, so we have very few ticks here.. I am thinking that they would eat the fly predators. I am debating yet, I still may try them this year

    Have any of you tried Fly Predators?

    I have been wanting to try them for awhile, but my husband has alot of poultry and I am afraid they will eat them all.

    Rabies shot who gives them?

    In 1977 I had an Arabian horse die of Rabies (rather be put down), plus myself and 2 other people had to take the series of shots (way more shots back then )... It was a terrible experience... So yes, all my horses are vaccinated each year. Very reasonable peace of mind

    Sleeplessness

    I also take Ambien, and have now for a few years. I work a graveyard shift and I just can't sleep. It has worked great for me.... But I still don't get "hours" of sleep. But the sleep that I do get, is a deep sleep (4-5 hours) and it seems to be enough for me. I have tried all the over the...

    "Straight" Miniatures?? I dont understand

    I agree with you on this Jean.... I also have been in this business a long time and very well remember... If she was just AMHR, she was nothing... It was all about AMHA and the bonus was AMHR (and alot of people didn't care if there were AMHR papers at all) .. Through all the years that I...

    "Straight" Miniatures?? I dont understand

    Ok, but that still doesn't answer my question... So is "Straight" just/only/exclusively AMHR registered? Meaning, that if my foal is sired by a AMHR/ASPC stallion and out of a Straight AMHR mare.... the foal would be Straight AMHR, right? And LaVern I truly do understand what you mean by...

    "Straight" Miniatures?? I dont understand

    LaVern... Ok, I kinda thought it was a marketing thing.... then I wasn't sure if it was meant to be, " No recent Shetlands in the background of an AMHR horse"... I have several AMHR horses and many times I refer to them as "AMHR exclusively" because I also don't really like the term "only"...

    Stupid Old AMHR Breeder

    JMO I love my AMHR "only" horses.... I love the AMHR registry.. I am happy they are doing this for another year, I just wish they had done it a few years ago when I hardshipped an AMHA "only" stallion into AMHR.. Sure would have saved me some money.. Oh well.. If i happen to run across a horse...

    Opinions, experiences sought on Mac computers....

    I bought a Mac 3 yrs ago... It was a bit of a learning curve and I did take an hour class that the store offered.. After I bought the Mac, both our daughters each bought a Mac and love them.. Personally, I will never buy another PC

    Daily Ulcer Preventative?

    I have a stallion that had ulcers last year. So bad that I almost lost him. I have since had him on "Succeed" daily for quite a few months. And will continue. It's kind of expensive, but for one horse, it does last quite a while. My horses diet is Purina Senior, soaked alfalfa cubes, a...

    Does The Minimum Wage Hurt Workers?

    This is something I have been wondering about farmers (in my area anyway)...They hang Huge prices on their hay... they stack it out in their fields and if they don't get their Huge prices... they don't sell it at all.. And they will let it sit and rot... Some how that just doesn't make sense to me.
