Easy enough for me! Don't they become immune to it though?

I'm still trying to learn what wormers are safe for mini's and what aren't. I know Quest isn't...is that the only one? What's the main ingridient in Quest? We're ordering wormer from Valley Vet Supply TODAY and I need to know what to get. We wormed with Ivermectin in late July and they are due...

He was done 3 weeks ago. It makes me feel alot better that most people are saying it isn't founder! We've had him since early this summer and he wasn't worked at all so I'm thinking it could be lack of work or even possibly changes in hay because the owner was getting whatever she could which...

Thanks everyone! I'm HOPING it wasn't founder but I'm getting the vet to x-ray him just to make sure!

Wow I thought I was the only one with a mini with a furry coat already! lol. I'm in Georgia and lately it's been lower 90's upper 80's and Champ already has his winter coat growing in! Poor guy! We have to keep him inside or he'll explode from the heat! Does this mean it's going to be a bad...

My friend's horse has "founder rings" on her hooves and I noticed they looked alot like Champ's. Champ is overweight (he's on a diet right now). His previous owner said he never foundered but they only had him 5 months. I still know and am friends with the old owners. I went out and took a pic...

Wow! That looks like it was really fun!

That's what I would do. Chain link or horse wire on the inside of the boards. I've never had any trouble with dogs/coyotes getting my mini. Our town is Coyote City (haha). We see them on a regular basis out at the barn and they never bother us or the horses. Once my trainer brought out her...

What a cutie! Congrats!

I know what you mean! It'd be nice to own a paint or appy mini but I don't really care! I've never owned a colorful horse. Bays, chestnuts and browns are all I've ever had and I'm not complaining!

Congrats! Great pics! Wish I could have gone!

My friend on another forum showed my pictures of her horses hooves. She has rings on them from where they think she foundered. I got to looking at them real well and they look alot like my mini's hooves! Champ also has rings on his hooves and they're really easy to spot. It really started to...

My trainer had one. It was very nice, roomy and almost never had any problems. It was also the only trailer my picky mare would ride in...lol. She loved the padded sides and how nice it was. She will NOT get in an old rusty trailer. She's too weird. lol.

I know about how far to space out cavalletti poles for large horses but what about mini's? I know it all depends on the stride but what's an average space between two cavalletti poles?

Thanks everyone! If we do end up getting one we'll probably order one from minitack.com. Has anyone had any luck with this company?

I'm probably not going to get my mini a blanket but I've always wondered - Can mini's wear foal blankets? I can never seem to find a mini blanket at any tack stores. Edited to specify - Can mini's wear an AVERAGE sized foals blanket.

Ok, where can I get one of these feed weights? I think we might have something that will already work. I talked to my vet and she advised me not to feed him anything with alot of protein. She said that's what you're suposed to use when you're putting weight on a horse. So now I'm confused. :

I've been a few times!

On youtube? I can't seem to find it...

Our feed store barely has any feed... :no: When I go what % is good for protein? I tore the label off the 12% sweet feed he's getting now. It says... Crude Protein...(min.) 12.00% Crude Fat...(min.) 2.50% Crude Fiber...(max.) 22.00% and it goes on and on...anyways...what should I look...
