    Backing up at a show?

    I don't know showmanship, but in obstacle, you cannot touch your horse--only the lead rope. I teach most of my horses to back up with voice command. I stand in front and-holding the lead close to the halter--drop my hand under their muzzle and lightly push them back while saying "back, back...

    Oh, my goodness--I am laughing so hard. Love the use of the slippers. I sorta figured you would wear them though. LOLOLOL. I wear them all winter long--I make them and usually go thru 2 or 3 pair a year. Hubby wears them too. The shredded paper came out of the bag of shredded paper that...

    Clipper advice please

    I was going to say the exact same thing. I love my Andis--in fact, we have 4 of them. We use the double k mostly for bodies and the andis for everything else. Andis is a bit more expensive than some of the others, but well worth the money. I have had two of my sets for 4 or 5 years now and...

    Miniature Show Horse Feeding

    Not all grass hay is created equal. I have learned that there are a few grasses that have as much or more protien than alfalfa. If you wish to be specific about what you are feeding you may need to have the hay tested--or at the very least, know what kind of grass is in the hay.

    WHOO HOO got my 100% this year! Secret Santa

    Hi, I got a ups package Thursday afternoon. It was a beautiful box of Harry London chocolates. I tried real hard not to eat any before I took a photo, but if you look close, you can tell that I did not succeed. They are really good. Thank you to my santa. I don't know a forum name so will...

    How Do You Pasture Your Stallions

    I let my mares and geldings out to pasture during the day for 8 to 10 hours and then bring them into a dry lot for the night. Since the side pens are next to the pasture and the fences are not great, the stallions stay in the stalls during the day. We let two stallions out over night in two...

    "Straight" Miniatures?? I dont understand

    Thanks, we thought he was pretty nice. He was a yearling that year. In 2001, he was in the driving ring being very stupid. We had him driving good at home, but took him into the ring to drive that year at nationals and he wouldn't go. Just stood there. LOL Kinda embarrasing. He went on to...

    Who have you bred (or not bred) for 2013?

    We did not breed last year or this year. Sorta planning to breed 4 or 5 next year, but we said that last year, so we shall see. The market is just not real good right now so would rather wait a while.

    Stupid Is As Stupid Does

    My pile will include some color because we shred all the paper and magazines that come thru this house and use it for bedding.

    "Straight" Miniatures?? I dont understand

    I agree with you on this. When I advertise or tell anyone what we have, I usually say "all our horses are AMHR registered. Many ot them are also ASPC registered and some are also AMHA registered" I don't have an "only" in the herd because they are all important to me whether they belong to...

    "Straight" Miniatures?? I dont understand

    The way I see it, a miniature is a miniature is a miniature. If it is within the height range, it is a miniature. It doesn't matter what its breeding is. Unless the registries close completely to outside horses, any horse that is either 38" or 34" and under can be a miniature horse. Calling...

    Has anyone used Diatomaceous earth food grade?

    I have used it for fleas in the house. It does kill them, but since it is not a poison, it does not have residual effects. You need to keep using it over and over to kill newly hatched eggs and to kill fleas the dogs bring back into the house. I have a friend who feeds it to her horses on a...

    Stupid Is As Stupid Does

    Now you need to make a video of yourself next to your newly started manure pile while telling everyone what you intend to do. Then you need to put it on utube and start posting it on facebook and get all your friends to share it so it gets everywhere. Then post it to twitter and wherever else...
