    Canker or Frog Abscess?

    Thank you so much everyone! I probably should start a new feed, but while I have all you helpful experts here… one of my minis is SUPER Harry this winter. His coat is so long. Sorry to be a hypochondriac and please excuse the weird roses.. but do y’all think this looks normal or do you think I...

    Canker or Frog Abscess?

    Thank you! It's the same foot and it is over the past 2 weeks-- it has been getting better it seems. But they do disagree on whether it's an abcess or canker

    Canker or Frog Abscess?

    Hi All, Thanks for being part of my trusted voices-of-reason! My farrier, trainer, and vet all have very different opinions and I am finding it hard to tell which method to follow. My big horse (so sorry for not posting about my minis this time), either has a frog abscess that won't go away or...

    Fighting or playing?

    Chewing on stump

    Hi All, My minis have hay and they have each other to play. I do training sessions with them daily and they still chew on this one tree stump everyday. I give them Vermont blend, vitamin E, and electrolytes at dinner with Timothy pellets. What else can I do or should I let them keep doing this?

    Toddler Stirrups?

    Hi All, I bought a wintec kid saddle thanks to the great recommendations from you all. I LOVE it and how adjustable it is. Thank you! I got webber leathers for it and now I'm just struggling to find small toddler/kid stirrups other than those western ones. Where did you guys buy your stirrups...

    Mini vaulting surcingle

    Hi Guys, Coming to the best of the best for help finding a vaulting surcingle that will fit a 36” mini :) hoping to put mini stirrups on this and make it basically like a saddle. If you guys have used other saddles for minis or saddle-pads that you like for beginner kids, I’m open to that as...

    What's the healthy range a 36" mini should weigh?

    Hi there! My little guy looks a bit chunky. He measures 9 hands, 36" and the weight tape says 270lbs. But he looks ROUND. I can a bit feel his ribs. Wondering if he's obese and what weight he should be? In contrast, my other little one measures 8.3 hands, 33" and 245lbs. Thank you in advance!

    Blue Roan?

    wow so interesting! Thank you. Since this is a new(er) term for me, does that mean he'll lighten the way greys do with age or stay this color? minus the seasonal color changes

    Blue Roan?

    Hi All, I know this sounds silly, but I don't see typical dark areas on my mini's legs, but his face is definitely darker than his body. Just wondering... Would you guys say he is a blue roan? I haven't even had a him a full year yet, so these pictures are a combination of how he arrived to me...

    Where to buy miniature horse bits

    Hi All! I just got this awesome ski jorring harness and bridle from Patty's Pony Place that I'm very excited to use this winter for light skiing and sledding. I'm wondering if anyone knows where I can buy a 3.5 or 3.75 D ring or Eggbutt snaffle for my little ones? Thanks in advance!
