    What do you Jump?

    Oh my goodness... we practiced jumping yesterday & I FORGOT to take PICTURES!!!! Ahhhhh!!!! Must be the pre-first-show-ever-coming-up-nerves!!! Will try again Sunday. Maybe. Hopefully. After all the work I go through to get set up, you'd think I would take pictures. Sigh. I did find some on my...

    What do you Jump?

    Paula, I just love your pictures! I really need to start taking more. I really like the idea of the feed sacks & Styrofoam blocks. My hubby works at a TSC type store that ships in & out a lot of products, I'm going to have him start collecting! He has gotten me a couple specialty pallets for my...

    What do you Jump?

    Oh boy! You wouldn't believe the "junk" we've jumped. Safely of course I'll see if I can get some pictures this weekend. I've mostly been digging around in the shop, & whatever I can find is what we've been using. The scarier & stranger the better! Flower pots (with the flowers of course) was...

    My stall bedding problems are gone

    The barn my guys are in is an old house that was converted for thoroughbred (claimer) racehorses. From the condition of the stalls, I would say the horses were a bunch of basket cases. There are huge drops (1-2') into the stalls, gouges chewed out of the wood, and holes dug along the neighboring...

    The "in" color

    I agree, eye of the beholder. But I LOVE dapples of any color. That would be my favorite right now. Of course I was roan obsessed for the longest time. I think any color that is shining healthy would be beautiful no matter what, but I guess I'm just partial to little horses in general, haha...

    Smokey's First Outting

    I took my guys to nursing homes yesterday! I have to say, having a driving whip or something would have been helpful in cueing them to step over with their hip or shoulder when in tight quarters, I don't think it's a bad tool to have! And if it helps you not fidget, it's doing double duty! Kudos...

    Tornado Woes

    THANK YOU everyone! I drove up to a nearby town yesterday (took my minis to 4 nursing homes to spread some smiles) which is where the first tornado touched down. We saw trees twisted, crops gone, an entire farm in shambles. This small town living is amazing, I know it's the same everywhere, but...

    Tornado Woes

    I hate to ask, but can anyone send some prayers to northeast Nebraska? A town called Pilger was hit by dual tornados (google it) this afternoon. I don't personally know many in the community, but the one death confirmed at this time is an in-law's brother. The town is gone, search & rescue are...

    Shampoos

    Interesting! I've been banging my head trying to figure out what to do for my guys flaky dandruff, both are dark, so it really shows! We have a pump house where we can't control water flow, so finding something that rinses out well is a must. I'm going to try the vinegar. I always have gallons...

    Too much drama wilted me

    Thinking of you, sending prayers for strength to get through it all. When it rains it pours, but after the storm beautiful things come. Hugs! And yes, congrats on the grandson!

    Looking for Farm name of Mini Budweiser Horse at AMHR Nationals

    Hey Performancemini... not sure if the expo is past or not, but yesterday I was helping a lady with her miniature donkeys, she made her driving team bud "clydes" for a parade one year, she used kids tube socks (cut off the heel down) & cut up a white wig to make the feathers. She showed me that...

    Too Cresty, Any Tips?

    Search "crest" or "cresty neck" on this site. There are a lot of good suggestions for exercises & supplements in previous posts. I recently asked the same question and was able to get a lot of good answers, and researching here helped to. If you get overwhelmed with the search results, try to...

    Leaving Halters On.....No!

    Isn't step one of horse ownership to be responsible for the safety of your horse? I will admit, I have left halters on for brief periods of time while supervising, but we have never left them on full time. We had several feedlot horses who never had halters on, they hated to be caught because it...
