Brought horses in from the pasture to good old Winters "mostly stalled with daily turn-out time" live over the weekend, and came to terms that they were all too FAT. I measured all of them for the girth x girth x length calculation, then divided first by 300, then by 330. I know for full-sized horses the number to divide by is 300, but have read and heard various places that for ponys and miniatures you need to divide by 330. Without loading several of them up and hauling them to the grain elevator in town to double-check calculations, which method do the majority of you feel is most accurate?
I also want to invite all of you to view the updated Sale and Mares pages on my website. As a "nod of recogition" to reaching retirement age, I'm offering several really nice well-bred mares that I had acquired with the original intention of keeping them for my brood mare band. Trying to make chore-time a little lighter so we can maybe have a few get-aways without imposing so much on our friends we trade chores with.
