    Need some pointers

    After much consideration I have decided to find a horse that is better suited for what I want to do. I love Jay to death and he would do wonderfully at breed shows, but I much prefer CDEs. He just doesn't seem to enjoy those. There are many more reasons too. What should I look for in a horse...

    Looking for Ground Driving resources

    Hey Guys! A few months ago I moved my horses to a new farm. I can tell how much happier they are there then the previous farm. The only sad part is there is no indoor arena at the new farm nor is there a good place to work the horses once there is snow. So I don't think I'll be doing much other...

    Average Transport Prices

    I am curious about average transport prices. I have a woman very interested in my mare, but she doesn't have a way to haul the horse herself. I'm willing to do so for a reasonable amount, but what is a reasonable amount? I want the trip to be worth my while, but I don't want to over charge her...

    Feeding Vit E supplement to Weanling

    This morning I was at the farm and one of the workers was complimenting me on how great my stallion's coat is. So shiny and healthy. Jay is on a Vitamin E and Selenium supplement. I add this too all my horses feeds since the North East is very Vit E deficient. This worker went on to say that I...

    I am so excited!!!

    I've had my minis at a farm close to where I lived that I could afford for a couple years. I've been getting angry with them more and more for not caring for my minis as well as they care for the biggies. My horses always got the short end of the stick and were frequently forgotten. And to top...

    My little filly.

    Gosh, Dru is getting so big. I love this little girl. She'll be two months old come next Monday. I clipped her about 2 weeks ago because it was getting so hot. I missed some spots but thats okay. I'll have to have someone help me when I go to clip her head. Before: After:

    Dru Pictures

    Just wanted to share some pictures of my filly. Dru was born April 21st. She's too cute and so friendly. She's doing great with her halter training. I'd like to have this one cropped so its only Dru. Could someone do that for me?

    Tarot Card Readers

    I felt the need to give myself a reading today, which I rarely do, using the Rider/Waite cards. I usually only give readings to others unless I feel strongly that I should give one to myself. So I did a three card draw. First Card: 10 of Cups Reversed. Second Card: 7 of Swords Reversed. Third...

    She's arrived!!

    Unfortunately I had to go away for a week this month. My mare was 2 weeks over due. I hated having to do that, but I left her with some amazing people who have tons of experience foaling out horses. I just got a call about an hour ago saying that Slippers had foaled. I now have a healthy bay...

    It's a sad day for Metal fans.

    It has been confirmed that Peter Steele died of heart failure last night at the age of 48. RIP Peter Steele, you will be missed. For those that don't know who he is, Peter Steele was the front man for Type O Negative. One of my favorite bands of all time. I find his death a bit ironic since I...

    Foaling sign question.

    I know that passing manure frequently in soft, wet piles is a sign that the time of foaling is getting closer. Does it usually mean that she has a couple more days or is it a sign that she's going to go within the next day? I can't seem to find anything on it, just that it's a sign.

    Warrior Dash 2010

    I got this brilliant idea the other day to run in this race with a friend. So I signed up and I've started planning my training. I have my first 8 weeks all set up. I was only doing this to support my friend who wanted to do it, but not alone. Now they have chickened out and I'm all geared up...

    And so the Dreams begin.

    Last night I had my first foaling dream. Feels just like when I was pregnant and getting close to my due date, I had tons of dreams about it. Two more weeks until Slippers' due date. Hopefully all goes well. In my dream I was so unprepared for the birth. Slippers surprised us all and had the...

    For those with a horse that competes in both

    I've been back to work with my stallion, since his winter layup after a bad trim. We've been working on in hand and jumping. Today when we went to work I started thinking. It must be hard for him to figure out what style we're working on. Are we working on a nice even pace and scoopy jump, or...

    All these foaling topics are getting me excited.

    I'm expecting my first foal and my stallion's first soon, and I can barely contain myself. I have names picked out for both a colt and a filly. I'm armed with everything I need for the foaling, as well as a cute blanket and halter courtesy of Marlene (Thanks again for a great SS gift). Now I...

    Clipper Care

    I've been seeing a lot of posts about people shopping for clippers, including myself. I thought it might be helpful for myself and others to get information from others about proper clipper care so that our clipper purchases will stay in good working order for years to come.
