    Opinions on mini mule

    Mule not donkey? Yes, mules are sterile. Gelding him will get rid of hormones but at his age his personality is what it is. Being a stud doesn't mean he's bad or hard to deal with it just means you've got what you've got after gelding. If he's a sweetheart hell stay that way, if he's aggressive...

    Baby belly?

    I'd agree with you if she was nursing the 3 year old then the colt probably isn't hers. I'd get a blood test done but still keep a casual eye on her even if it comes back negative, they've been known to be wrong. I'm not one of the baby pros but I always go with hug their belly and try to feel...

    Blind eye question

    I dont think its uveitis, she doesn't show any discomfort at all and the other eye has no goop or redness or soreness. I've looked but haven't found an eye cup for a mini....yet

    Blind eye question

    Thank Abby😁. I have a fly mask for her and it helps but I can't find one that fits well. She's accident prone and even with it hemmed to fit better I've had her get it tangled up, I didn't know that was even possible before she did it, lol. I don't want to go all the way with enucleation, it's...

    Blind eye question

    Tilly (Finn's mom) is blind in one eye. It looked normal when I got her 2 years ago but has shrunk since then so I'm guessing a traumatic injury, it doesn't bother her at all. The problem is it's constantly being bothered by bugs(worse than the other) in the summer and year round she likes to...

    Activities to do with Mini Horse

    I'm going to second trying some trick training with him. It's a great place to start if you're trying to build a relationship and motivate him to want to do something. It sounds like he's a pretty layed back guy which is a great personality for you as you're starting with all of this but they...

    Mini Foal

    That's a hard situation. It does sound like the mare might have taken her but there's no way to know, hopefully she did and she got some colostrum. You did need to get her warmed up or you could have lost her too, good for you for reacting even if it didn't go as planned. It is not normal for...

    Mini Foal

    Oh poor baby!! Do you know if the mare accepted her before you took her to warm her up? I haven't had any experience with a mare rejecting one that hard. I had a maiden who needed two people in the stall, one holding the mare one helping the foal for about 12 hours until the mare figured it out...

    Towing Capacity

    I don't drive, no time not no want, but have to comment😁. One of mine (Izzy) is 34 and drives like a bomb. I saw a video of her driving before I got her and she had two adults and a child in I have no idea the cart and they had to hang on to keep her at a fast trot. She was a mennonite breeding...

    Gardening

    Love the roses! Yes please, I was thinking about those hoses as I was pulling my 100ft heavy stiff hose out to get the water done in the stalls this morning. Has anyone used one, do they last well?????

    Ears

    I don't know what they'd want you to do there but my rule has always been trim the outside edge so no hair is sticking out but leave the inside alone. I've never had a complaint either way about that.

    Congratulations! She's adorable!! Thanks for posting a written update, I don't have home internet and data is really expensive in Canada so I don't watch videos very much. Everything good with them now? Pictures, more pictures and updates are always welcome!!

    Aha finally a toy that works

    What a great spot for him! Is he going to get to keep the trees when you get him locked up? I'm short on paddock spacec right now so my donkeys get the run of the yard and driveway in the summer. I no longer have a garden around the house but at least it's weeded and I have to throw out handfuls...
