Here is a good on refeeding a starved horse, much research went into it. http://www.completerider.com/nutrition.htm http://www.petfinder.com/for-shelters/back-from-the-brink.html?printer_friendly=1

I have a pair of rabbits. I got the first one at the feed store where he was abandon. I needed another pet like a hole in the head, but he was so sweet & tame I couldn't resist. It first he was about 75% litter box trained, but a couple months later he started marking corners, and then he even...

Agree 100%. I feed quite a lot of hay compaired to may people. But I specifically chose the native prairie/Bent grass hay mix because I know the farmer, the field it came off of, and that it tests very low in NSC (sugars). My boys have hay bellies because of the high fibar that they consume, but...

Yesterday I gave my two mini's and one saddle horse a belly, neck & 1/2 head clip. I also trimmed their bridle paths, took the long feather off their legs, and trimmed tails to just above the fetlock. I plan on keeping them fit through the winter (longing, long lining & driving) as much as...

Thanks, you guys are great! I was going to guess max at 300 pounds. My bigger guy can actually leap in like a mountain goat. It is just little Billy that has trouble.

....but I don't, other than a guess. I know there will be no one answer, nor am I expecting anything perfectly accurate, just a maximum estimate. Not only should I know this for worming purposes & feeding, but now a new issue. I just bought a new trailer, a really nice aluminum 2 horse. They...

I roached Bill the first summer I had him. I liked it and he didn't seem to mind. It has grown lots in the 1.5 years, so much that is is now heavy on one side of the neck. And he is rubbing it out, I think because he gets hot under it. I am thinking about roaching it again whan I body clip...

I saw the preview and am curious. Is it grusome and gory? Or just suspensful and scary?

I bought a used cheap steamer/double boiler at a Goodwill store that has the collender. I put the beet pulp in the collender, fill the pot with hot water, let sit 1-2 hours, then pull it out to drain. I'll also rinse it again if I can. You can not believe all the dirt and grit that comes out of...

Beet pulp is high in fiber, low in sugar, so safe to feed to IR and over weight horses. I use it as a carrier (instead of commercial pellets or grains) to get supplements/medications into the horse. IR/overweight/easy keeper horses don't need lots of calories, but they still need all the...

Oh he is soo cute, really reminds me of my pony Shorty that I lost to cancer. If he was "lost" closer to me he could just move right in.

Sure, several times. Once for training purposes, other times were in combat and took a hit due to splash or transfer. Have you ever been Tazed? Not that is a rush! Not something I want to do again. But it least it only hits you for a second, where pepper burns for hours, even after you wash...

I have been using the Snacker for the 2 mini's and the Grande(s) in the loafing stall (big horse) for close to 2 years now. They are holding up very well with no sign of wearing. I can put two flakes (about 10 pounds) into the Grande, maybe another couple pounds if I really stuffed it. The...

I'm going back next weekend. Hopefully I'll get a video of the in hand course.

I took some pictures last Friday and got a few of the mini class. Here is the link, they are on pages 4 & 5, mixed with pictures of the big horses. http://s19.photobucket.com/albums/b194/kra...Trail/?start=84 It was a great course, lots of nice horses, mules and donkey's. Here is a video of a...

For a lot of reasons, I just received this last week......... Dear horsey folks: I was in Pleasant Hill (OR) Feed store yesterday and met a woman with a problem. She has health issues and her husband was just diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer. They raise and show registered, papered...

Oh I live GP's!Yours are so very pretty! I had one as a child, she lived to be quite elderly... 7 or 8 years. A very sweet black and white piggy named Patches. She had the medium length hair with curly Q's, but I really like the long hair. I would like a pair of pigs, but they would have to...

This is Hondo, my first mini the first day I brought him home. It was a year ago in November. He was seven, I was thirty nine.
