I’ve made a few different threads regarding my new minis, but I thought I’d combine them all into one thread so we don’t have to jump all around to the different threads lol. Also, they haven’t arrived yet and I’m getting way too excited and need somewhere to rant haha. So the original questions...

She looks pretty good overall, however the first thing I personally noticed was that she has a long back. Ideally, the horse will have a shorter topline than the underline, and on your mare the topline is quite long. I also personally prefer a slightly, very slightly thicker neck, which in my...

Both of mine have all of them I believe. I just adopted two new ones (they haven’t come home yet) and I didn’t check when I went to see them, but now looking at photos from the summer, they both have them on at least their fronts :)

Haha love that! It was on my list too, but I’m pretty sure I’ve decided on Arrow for the gelding, and it’s not really a mare name in my opinion :)

Interesting! I’ve heard of Jessica Rabbit but never really watched or read anything about her. That is a cool name!

Thank you! Awww that’s adorable, I love it!!

I’m not exactly sure how big they are, I bought a weanling and suckling halter for my current larger mini and they were too big for him. I’m thinking Arrow looks like he has a slightly longer, more dainty face so may need something different but may not 🤷🏻‍♀️

Oh okay, I’ll check those out! Greenhawk has $50 free shipping as I’m sort to close to one of their stores.

I noticed that the U.S has much more mini stuff…wondering if maybe minis are more prevalent there? Yeah I’m kind of wanting to avoid the postage rates…lol it’s so expensive sometimes!

Oh interesting! I’m hoping that will happen too :) I do like Rose, I was also thinking Bella or Dazzle, maybe Orchid, Echo, Iris (thought that was cool cause of her blue eye, and it’s the iris that’s colored), Molly, Java, Dolly, Pearl (black Pearl) and Meadow. Those are just some of the ones...

As lots of you know, I adopted two miniature horses. They will hopefully be here next week. I live in Alberta, Canada and there aren’t too many Canadian stores that are just for minis/ponies or even sells mini stuff. Does anyone know of any Canadian tack stores (with free shipping would be...

Thank you! She needs the perfect name haha and I suck at names lol

I tried to edit the original post but for some reason I can’t. Anyway I found a decent photo of the black mare, I know y’all have really wanted to see her so here she is!! They haven’t been dropped off yet, hopefully next week though!

I met her last week, and that’s how I found Arrow’s name. It just came to me. And they’re not registered as they’re rescues, I’m definitely planning on getting to know her a bit before I decide for sure but I wanted to see what you guys would think of so I had some more ideas!

I do know you love names! Oh my gosh I LOVE THOSE haha. Actually I did find a photo of her, but her forelock is so thick so it covers her eyes in that one haha so we can’t see her blue eye. I’ll edit the original post to have that photo of her.

I have another post about my new mini rescue gelding and his unique color, what to feed him etc. But I’m getting a pair of minis, that gelding and a black mare with a blue eye. I wanted to dedicate a post to her specifically, I don’t have good photos but she’s basically a solid black with her...

Yeah I think that’s a good idea. The other mini is needing some muscle too, and actually my two current minis need to build some muscle, I’m thinking of maybe using it for all of them?

Gotcha. I had my big horse on Complete Pellet from StepRight (he was a senior at 22 but it worked for him, so that’s where I was thinking of starting as it really improved his topline, in conjunction with the exercises I did with him :) do you think that’s a good place to start?

Interesting, I’ll keep that in mind! I was feeding my senior horse Step 4 Complete pellet, as he needed to build up muscle and topline as well so I was considering starting Arrow on that.
