    Pregnant mare Care

    I have a little mare who is supposed to be pregnant. I've had her 2 months. She is due July/August so I am told. She has had 3 foals previously but I have NEVER had a pregnant mare. She is an excellent mother. Her filly came with her and is being weaned at the moment. They have been separated...

    Foal with eye discharge.

    Bought the mare and foal 2 months ago. The foal has a discharge from one eye. Vet said there is nothing wrong with the eye and it is just like the sleep that we get in our eyes sometimes in the morning. Can't describe it very well. The discharge is whitish/creamish, very soft and falls off or...

    Medically challenged mini, quantity over quality.....when do you say enough?

    I doesn't get any easier for you whether it's this week or six months from now. It is always a heartbreaking decision and one us animals lovers have to make sometime or another and it never gets any easier. So sad.

    If you won the lotto....

    How's this for boring. If I won Lotto I would hire someone as a permanent poo picker upper. Then my life would be complete.

    Seen any good(or bad) movies lately?:)

    Saw "Philomena'' last week. Wasn't really expecting to enjoy it but it was compelling. It keeps coming back into my thoughts and I guess that is a sign of a really good movie.

    winter laminitis What information can you share?

    Just keep in mind that for many recovery can be a long, slow, process (and I mean looooooong and slooooooow) even when all the right management strategies are in place. Prepare yourself mentally and emotionally for that possibility and don't let your guard down for a minute. Good luck. Founder...

    Is any one else really tired of this weather?

    Well Chandab we have the +40C here and I think I'm going to die. Wish I could send a few of those degrees over your way.

    Favourite movie of ALL TIME.

    Following on from another post I was wondering what people see as their favourite movie ever. "LOVE ACTUALLY" is my favourite. Never miss it when it comes on TV and I rarely watch repeats of anything and I certainly don't think of myself as a romantic but I just love that movie.

    Is any one else really tired of this weather?

    May I gripe too please. We've been having a heatwave here, drought, heat.......can't stand heat, dams empty, tanks running low and critters drinking 700litres of water a day, being dry roasted, trees dying, ever present chance of bushfires ..........I do a lot of whinging. I'm very good at...

    Im lost...

    For what they are worth here are my thoughts. You say you "love them very much", I say how could you possibly love them when they are obviously making your life an absolute misery. We are programmed to "love" our parents and family and feel there is something wrong with us if we don't but...

    Seen any good(or bad) movies lately?:)

    Saw FROZEN a couple of weeks ago. It's an animated movie and it was just wonderful, fabulous, marvellous ....... and it was good too LOL. Enjoyed Hobbit 2, missed 1 for some reason. A lot of action, lots of seriously ugly Orcs, fabulous dragon, amazing sets. I enjoyed it thoroughly.

    Fat mini diet help

    A lot depends on the type of mini. Most of those you see on American sites are miniature horses and are very fine, slender, small boned (get the picture) and in show condition. Many minis here in Australia are miniature ponies and are much more chunky and solid (repeating myself here). Most of...

    Fat mini diet help

    I agree with Rabbitsfzz entirely. That weight does not sound overweight to me on a 33'' horse. I wish you the best of fun with your new mini. .......a word of warning.......be careful not to end up with a whole paddock full of them.

    Thankyou Marsha Cassada. That is one problem I am never likely to experience here.

    Another Winter Storm

    Crazy weather here too. The last few days I thought I was going to die in the awful heat then this morning I'm wearing a coat and beanie. Dumb question....why is the ice in the trees dangerous?
