It is Called Cornin'. It involved a sack full of shelled field corn and throwing it at your neighbors windows (does no damage just makes noise) and then running. The next day you gather up all the corn in your front yard and you have enough to go cornin again the next night. Anyone else ever...

The National Voter Registration Act of 1993 or as it is sometimes called the "Motor Voter Act" is when they started letting the DMV'S and the Public Assistance offices register voters. You can do a search on this to find out the details of what that act says. This link...

This is to formally announce our new miniature donkey "Cracker Jack"!! We believe he is about 4 months old. We are trying to get aquainted with him and to gain his trust. It is a new experience and we are taking it one step at a time.

We got it at an auction. They called it a pony trainer. We painted it John Deere Green and Yellow, and put new chains on it. We introduced some of the minis to it today. Here are a few pictures. We kept the first time use down to a few minutes, just a start to get them used to it.

We went to the annual Cart and buggie auction at Dinkys yesterday. Wow!! I have never seen so many carts, buggies, wagons, carriages and sleighs in one place. They had a stage coach that went for $20,000. They had a Cinderalla carriage. They had several horse drawn hearses, one came with a...

We have two Dobermans (1 male and 1 female). We are wanting them to have a litter of puppies. He was a year old in May and he kept trying to do "it" but he just kept "humping" air, and not always at the correct end either. We tried to help direct him but he would just shy away. Tonight we...

We went to an auction today. You know how hard it is not to buy, especially when you see something you've been wanting. We saw this beautiful black 30 inch weanling filly that is a granddaughter of Boone's Little Buckeroo and Candylands Best Kept Secreat. We also bid on very small 26 1/2...

We purchased couple of Supermask brand fly masks in the miniature size. They work well on the yearlings we have but they wont stay on very good on our 4 month old Nick. Does anyone have another brand that fits mini foals better?? If so what brand is it and where did you get it?? Thanks...

Girls gossiping at the fence!! Nose to Nose!!

Nick is such a sweet little guy. He comes right over to us and lets us put a halter right on him. He also leads quite well. He is a very sociable horse and loves to be around people. He is really getting settled in and is comfortable in his new home. He whinnied alot that first night...

when a horse clicks his teeth at another horse??

From searching and reading up about hoof nippers on the forum here, we have decided to go with the GE 14 inch Race Track. The cheapest place I have found them is $178.00. Does anyone know of anyplace to get them cheaper or is this about the best price. We just want to check before we order...

Went to a place called Dinky's last night. This place is run by the amish and they auction off almost anything. Most of the animals are in poor shape when they are brought there. When we saw this little colt we just had to have him. He may not have papers and he will be gelded but he will be...

John has made quite a lot of progress on building #2 and here are some pictures. We have already put a big round bail of hay in the bottom part (as shown in picture 3) Picture 4 was taken before we put the bail in. The top loft part should hold around 16 square bails of hay.

John couldn't wait to start working on another building, even though he still has some work to finish up on the inside part of the 1st one. With cold weather coming on he thought we needed a way to feed the hay and keep the hay, horses and ourselves dry. This one is going to have a storage...

We just happened to catch them all together relaxing in the morning sun. Would love to see everyone else's herds too!! :aktion033: :aktion033: :aktion033:

Some of you asked - so here are a couple of updated progress pictures of the 1st of several small "old west" buildings hubby is making. It is not complete yet but he does have the wood on the sides now. Here is the building from outside the pen and here is a view from inside the pen...

Hello friends!! Back in July, before we got Cash and Sassy we had put a deposit down on a couple of other minis. Daisy Mae born 6/14/07 and WindChaser born 6/16/07. The owner thought they would be ready to go in late August, but after info that we got from reading posts on this forum, we...

Thanks everyone for the advice and the information - Even Nathan - we know you mean well. The two little ones are in a much friendlier mood today. They came right up to the fence and didn't run away when John petted them this morning. I went out into the field with my chair and my brush and...

Hello, My husband and I are new to miniature horses. We have been reading a lot about mini's here on this forum. We got our first mini a couple of weeks ago (a 4 month old colt) He was our only horse and was getting to know us pretty well (Letting us pet him and letting us put a halter on...
