I have used two different types. The Andis 2 speed and the Oster A5s. I would rather use the Andis 2 speed, and am tempted to buy them next spring when I clip again. I think it also helped that when I used the Andis 2 speed, I was clipping damp (NOT soaking wet) miniatures as compared to clean...

I have not used banamine or any type of pain reliever on him. I do think that is has to do with his conformation or possibly pain.I have a vet appointment on the 16th, and hopefully I can catch him on one of those days, and show my vet. Here's his latest conformation picture from July.

I have a coming 4 year old gelding who I have been noticing since his 2 year old year to have very stiff hind legs. I'm not sure out its his stifles or hocks, but I have a half brother of this gelding who is a dwarf with the same stiff legs. Any input? I have him up for sale as I would like to...

Here's my opinion, as I'm in the same boat as you. For me, I live in southern Iowa and all of the miniature horse breeders, trainers, and shows are WAY up north for me. Sucks. For me, I think I've decided to work my minis as home as far as I can, save up the money, send them north to a trainer...

I figured teasing and heats would go into "OTHER" because I know some people use those methods and others. I also know some you live by the Almanac and always have.

This discussion came about on an all-horse forum I'm on, and its actually pretty heated. The thread is pointed towards miniatures and was started by a new mini owner with a supposedly bred mare, who was asking for different methods to test because her vets (and surrounding vets) refuse to...

I just wanted to update. I went to my vet and consulted with her about Ulcer treatment. We spent a half hour trying to figure out a dosage for him. You know those lines that tell you each quarter of a tube? He's gets 1/3rd of that a day. LOL. I told my vet she'd hate him more than she does my...

OMG. Do we have the same friend? I was telling a friend that I got a new colt, and she was just shocked at how old miniatures live to be, She called them "30 year plans" as well and compared them to children. She about died when I told her I have SEVEN 30 year plans. But seriously. This will be...

How much Calf Manna do you feed? I don't know much about the brand or anything. I am planning on feeding afalfa pellets/cubes. I think the plan is to keep him with my gelding until he's gelded (If I do). Otherwise he will not be out with any mares. Thanks for the response! Do you have any...

I brought a 4 month old colt home two weeks ago and he has been paired up with my coming 4 year old gelding. I honestly just don't know what to make of the colt. He is a sweet little guy when he has a halter on and is being handled by me. He is only just now starting to come up to you and sniff...

I would like to breed for a foal in then next couple years and I think I have a pretty decent goal in mind. I would like to use my own bloodlines and breed towards more show quality miniatures. I do realize that I could buy what I want, but I really don't like buying. But like I said, this won't...

I gotta ask, what is the ametuer classes and membership? I don't understand it. EDIT: I always thought it was meant beginners, but I have a feeling it means the pros?

LOL. Thanks Vanessa! I should have asked you but I thought that Lil' Beginnings had more people from more backgrounds. More the merrier! I did find Ohios Bay Lady and I also found quite a few Ohio horses that Castle Rock listed above. And you know just how much I LOVE your stallions.

I wanted to bump this up, and I know its old but I didn't want to start a new thread. Does anybody know of any pictures of "Baynes Little Satan"?

I re-read the message and it said Ohio Bay horses. Not the Cleveland Bays or bay horses.

I was told to look up old Ohio Bay horses? Any info? I haven't heard of them.

Well. I demand pictures once you're able to access them. You always have some nice little minis.

Welcome! I did see your response in you message from the other forum. Nice to see you here as well!!

As of 2012 he was still with the Odle's. He's with the 4+ geldings. http://www.imecnews.com/IMJY.TXT He's listed on their website as a stallion, but it hasn't been updated since 2011/2012. EDIT: You can always search them on FB as well. The farm is on FB and pictures are on the shower's page...

Thank you!
