    trying to get my black horse a shiny coat

    Are the black oil sunflower seeds the same as for birds? I just checked on Amazon. I had never heard of this before and am so intrigued. How much and HOW do you feed? Shell and all???

    Lameness

    Totally not a pro here, but when my big guy went lame that suddenly he had an absess, it took over a week to come close enough to the surface to drain. I was doing the same, soaks in epsom salt and poultice. I have no experience with Navicular tho. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

    How To Tell Which Direction To Go...

    An additional thought... AMHA has a dvd of the three types of driving horses and what to look for. I found this to be much more informative than just looking at photos. To hear exactly what you are looking at while the horses is moving made a huge difference. I thought my horse was Country...

    Kandi Land Minis - "Babe" EDA -4/15ish, Maiden

    Thank you ladies. I will most likely not breed her back to Willie. I have sent him home to his owner. I have 2 mares confirmed in foal to him. After I get her back in shape I will try with another stallion... Or maybe wait until next year and breed to my new Jr Stallion, Willies son... I'm in...

    Cart Cover

    Becky, You should try Kingston. They are in Sacramento and you can go to the wherehouse to pick it up if you are coming down to Brookside tomorrow. If it doesn't fit, you may be able to return it without too much issue. The people there have been breat to work with. Kandi PS... just saw this...

    Cart Shaft and Breast Collar Question

    I'm with Becky here. I have noticed when my horse "bends" for the 360' turns this can happen, but if I concentrate on more of a sidepass to pivot I never have this happen. I do a ton of in hand obstacle with my horses to really get them to sidepass properly and find that this translates to cart...

    Scurry... Gonna try it.... Advice please???

    From what I watched and have read, It is similar to a cones driving course but with several different patterns from optimum time to complete, to slalom, to fastest time... The below link has information on the facility I visited. It is done with all different size horses from the VSE (mini) to...

    Dying manes and tails

    I LOVE this topic! Yes, I use the big black trash bags and duct take for manes and AI gloves for the tails. I also use the deepest dark brunette color for the most natural look. If you are in an outdoor arena at all I find the black dyes to look fake. Big claw clips to keep things in place...

    Scurry... Gonna try it.... Advice please???

    So last weekend I went to the Western States Horse Expo and spoke to the people at the Sargent Equestrian Center booth. I was just curious becuase they had driving stuff and almost EVERYTHING else was Big Horse based. So in chatting with them they told me about Scurry driving and that I should...

    Color Enhancing?

    OMG!!! Riverrose... That is my worst fear!!! My mom used to use bluing all the time on the dogs. I tried it one winter on my chestnut arabians white socks and they turned blue. I have always been fearful ever since using the bluing shampoos but have never had the same problem. I enjoyed the...

    Kandi Land Minis - "Babe" EDA -4/15ish, Maiden

    Remember this post... Posted 03 April 2013 - 07:23 AM OK, Last night I took all the appropriate pictures. I swear she barely looks pregnant now. If I didn't have confirmation and saw her belly rolling the other day and her looking wide as a truck I would say, nope, shes not pregnant. So all...

    Kandi Land Minis - "Babe" EDA -4/15ish, Maiden

    OK, I am taking my moment to say... I HATE MAIDEN MARES!!! OK, Out of my system. I don't hate them but boy am I frusterated. I guess at this point we are going with her later breeding date. The mare is a complete hussy and is still in love with her "baby daddy" and acts like she is in season...

    Toys for a Mini?

    What is with these guys and rubber feed tubs? Mine also love the feed tubs. So much that I have to take them out of stalls at night to get some sleep. 1:00 AM seems to be the preferred play time with those. My babies also like theBIG balls. My stallion loves his "Jolly Ball"

    Kandi Land Minis - "Babe" EDA -4/15ish, Maiden

    OK, Well, nothing new really to report. I have been super busy getting ready for a horse show this past weekend, so I hadn't been to visit Babe until today. The baby was super active while I was there, her poor upper flank was bumping somthing fierce. I took a picture but of course all you can...
