I work at a vet clinic and Doc says a horse will only be worm free for 3 to 4 weeks after a deworming. When you deworm you are killing the worms in the intestines. Then there is some kind of trigger in the system that tells the larve in the linings that hey its time to hatch!! because there are...

Mine have fuzzy hair but they can feel my charger just fine. I just bought a new one because the last one was a pulsating one and my billy goat had NO respect for it. The new one charges 15 miles of fence. I had my stud try my fence once and I wet his hind end down and wet the ground where he...

My all time FAV QH is Doc Bar.... April

Lymes in dogs will paralyse them to a degree. Not sure what it does in horses.... EPM will make them loose muscle tone but they will stager. I will ask my boss (vet) to see what Lymes does to horses....... April

I think also that it was a little eary... and of course one way to see if it was born alive and took a "breath" was to have the autopsy done, but I also know of another way that is NOT for the faint of heart.... you can take a sample of the lung tissue and put it in a cup of water.... if it...

I usually dont coment on these kinds of topics, but here I go.. I eat meat...... goat sheep cow pig chicken.... I draw the line at horse. BUT I also believe that horse slaughter houses are a "nessesary evil" also. I would much rather see them killed then being turned loose to starve or get hit...

Oh I know how you feel!! Im really to GELD mine... He keeps getting out and was in with the mares the other day... I will have to Lutalyse one mare cause I dont want any babies next year. I finally had to put him back in the electric fence. He is minding his manners now. Wont go near the...

Well Im going against everyone here.... I HAVE bought a dwarf. She was my first one and have had NO regrets getting her and she has had NO health issues and will be 6 on July 26th. She has very straight legs but an undershot jaw and I have to keep her teeth ground down. I wouldn't go into...

I have SAFELY hauled several of my horses in a stock rack in the back of my truck. If I have 1 or 2 I would rather do that then hook of the 16 foot gooseneck. Saying that I dont haul them in cold or rainy weather. As for getting things in their eyes... fly masks. As for them jumping out... if it...

I know this has probably been posted to death.... I looked in the mini info pages here and there wasnt one.. anyone got a good one for a beginner to look at?? Maybe it could be put on the info pages?? Thanks April

Heres my 19 YO mare..... She gets nothing special unless she has a foal on her. They tend to drag her down a bit so she needs extra. She has had a cracked tooth pulled and flaoted but other then that she is out with the herd. She is low man in the pecking order but does fine. April

I can't find what I did with my info on a gentleman in Kansas that does it. He did mine last year and it took awhile to get them back but I found out he had had a heart attack and was behind. I want to send more. Does anyone know who I am talking about? I originaly asked here for a sharpener and...

Squirrles and pack rats are the WORST... Poison will only work if they EAT it. Most of the time they just pack it away and dont eat it for awhile. I had rats living in my Tarus.... I had to set rat traps on top of my motor with TIN FOIL on the trip. I killed 1 within an hour. April

Im blessed with knowing a little about motors and such....Of course I grew up with my Daddy being a weekend shade tree mechanic. My mecanic I use knows better then to try to pull a fast one.... he tells me it staight. It also helps he lets me go in and I ask him a million questions about what...

I work at a vet and my boss says that a TRIPLE dose will kill tapes..... I would rather just use Gold or Equimax. After you deworm, your horse is only worm free for 6 weeks..... 12 is too long 8 is better but every 6 weeks is the best for deworming. April

Do you ask for a certin thing to be tested for?? Or do they test for all colors??? How do you narrow down what to test for? For example..... this filly I registered as a bay pinto. Sire is reg as a buckskin but looks exactly like her maybe a little blacker and her dam is a bay. What test would...
