My earliest was a filly at 299 days last year, was a lightning fast delivery and no problems at all. The same mare foaled at 311 days this year, a perfectly healthy filly.

Only horse people would understand what normal poop means. I email a friend of mine and the subject is sometimes something like "such and such is pooping normally--yippee." Glad to hear yours is pooping normally. Means a lot!

Steff, To my knowledge, he is still alive and has 119 registered foals. I own a direct daughter of his (Hunt House Farms Tickles) and also previously owned another daughter (Southern Charms Diamond Lil)--I kept her filly from last year (JBR Frosted Freckles), so I have a granddaughter now of...

I've had several horses over the years like this....do you have wood fencing or trees where she can nibble on the bark? I had one filly who did this and it caused wet poop like your mare. Once prevented from being able to eat the wood or bark, she cleared up almost immediately. My horses...

So very sorry for your loss. There are a few pintos in his pedigree...I am thinking along the same lines about the LWO gene. Here are some on his sire's side: Komokos Brandy Wine, chestnut pinto; Komokos Little Champ, chestnut pinto (three times); Bond Sir Galahad, black pinto; Bond Peppermint...

So sorry to hear about your filly. I had a filly born two years ago that developed joint ill in the right rear hock joint at one day old. At first, we thought it was a fracture. She endured almost daily joint flushes for three weeks and was on injectible antibiotics (gentomycin and Naxcel)...

Only one registered foal listed in AMHA in 2000 and none registered in AMHR. Did you contact the seller to ask about this?

You all are very lucky! We are paying at least $6.25 per bale for grass hay here in central Florida....anywhere from $10.49 to $17.99 for Timothy/Alfalfa and $15.99-18.99 for alfalfa!!! It is finally raining down here, but the new hay prices have set the bar, so I doubt we will see hay any...

I have had the PregTest for about 6 years now and have had good results with it....mostly once the mares are over 3 months pregnant--you scan in a different area after the foal has dropped (2 inches in front of the udder on the belly). I have had varying results scanning from 14 days to 3...

Hi--this is the first time posting here. I LOVE mini apps (big ones, too) and only have miniatures now. I have been breeding since 1997 and have developed some very nice, show quality babies over the last few years. Check my website when you have time at www.jbrranch.com. We are located in...
