Oh no! That’s terrible! It makes my heart hurt.

Wow! That was a close call!

UPDATE Bubbles stayed in town with us for three or four nights. (It’s illegal to keep horses inside the city limits here. My “follow the rules grandson” wanted to know if we’d asked the mayor for permission 😆) The predator lights were installed this afternoon. My sweet husband and sweet...

That was such fun to watch! Thank you for sharing. Your time and patience shows. Great performance. :-)

I thought they were nocturnal, too!!

Just ordered predator lights. I’ll ask someone to spend a couple of nights out there to be on the safe side after we install them. Thank you all for your help and advice! I’ll keep you updated. :-)

That DOES look just like Bubbles’ wounds! Thank you.

This sounds like a great idea. My post may have been confusing because we have a miniature horse and I was thinking a donkey may help. Now that you mention it, I’ve heard of these lights! Will definitely investigate them. Thank you!

That could be an option. This is an old family friend who loves horses and would want to keep them safe. Your minis don’t get their legs caught in the wire?

Just found out that there definitely are coyotes here in SC. Also someone suggested that a donkey is a protector. Any thoughts on that?

Thank you. The pasture is clear of everything but grass. Everything. Wooden fences surround each pasture. We don’t have coyotes here in the midlands of SC that anyone has heard of. A dog was here today visiting and she was fine with it. I just can’t imagine. She got her shots last week so I...

Do not know why the photo posted in the middle of the post. Sorry!

All of a sudden, our little mare’s personality has changed. She’s become head shy and skittish instead of the happy and eager horse she was a few days ago. We examined Bubbles closely and found a couple of tiny punctures on her ears. We were afraid something had attacked her so we brought her...

You are the best! I hope you have pictures. That would be a sight to see!

I’d love to have the name of or the link to that group please. I’ve been looking high and low. My husband is not fond of using our minivan to haul our mini. Strange man. ;-)

Welcome! This is a wonderful group and Mo is quite the handsome man! Gorgeous! He’ll be so much fun.

How exactly does one go about weighing a mini?

Gosh. I wish I’d read this yesterday. My vet was out and gave my mini both of her vaccines. She didn’t seem to have a reaction but I haven’t been to the barn today. I learn so much from y’all. Thank you!

I didn’t think of that. I assumed the longer grass would be easier to eat. I see how the shorter grass would be easier now that I think about it. This is my first mini so I’m still learning - there is a lot to learn about minis!

He’s adorable! And I’m envious. It seems whenever I’m looking for another mini (I have only one now) there are none to be found! Mine needs a buddy.
