Is it ok to let them share with the mare? He takes a bite and walks away every feeding.

Perfect timing thanks for the post. I have my first miniature horse foal and was wondering the same exact thing experienced with big horse foals. The mare when I purchased her was WAY fat. She got nothing except good grass/alfalfa hay until the last month and 1/2 and then it was just a ration...

I think this is a GREAT idea! I'll take my camera out to the barn with me tonite when I feed and will have at least 3 types to share.

Were your sheets the 4 x 12? How much was it a sheet? I was thinking of doing my entire barn with a similar product. Keep us updated on how it holds up. THANKS for posting!

She might have an upset stomach, horses will eat dirt, eat alot of salt, minerals, curl their lip, yawn if their stomach is upset. Clay pulls toxins from the gut. I have a bentonite clay brick in all my horses stalls. They will lick them for a day or two and then leave them alone for months...

A cheap projector from Joannes. I think mine was under 20.00. It will put your picture any size you want (you just move the projector closer or farther away from the trailer) on the side of the trailer you just trace and color it in.

Clipped my mare last night. It's my first foal clip too. Mare was wonderfully patient with me. I used a #10, it's the smallest number I had. Make sure to do under the belly too. Under the belly I went all the way up to the front legs, I've seen those little critters try to nurse between the...

I have a four camera wired system right now that is run with RG6 coaxial buried 4' in the ground and I've got snow from 6p.m. to 9 a.m. All my neighbors are home then. That's why I am switching. This camera is suppose to go via internet so the picture should be just like watching youtube.

Made slow feeders for all my horses big and little out of tennis net openings 1.5". They are GREAT! I've had horses for over 30 years and to look out and see content horses milling around and wandering over to eat a little hay and then come visit and then go to the water is a THING OF BEAUTY...

I'm looking at getting a system I can use with the internet. You might want to look at this one. Levana Wireless Baby Camera XSC6-03 its 89.00 at walmart.

We will be going to the Pinto/AMHR Show in Corunna Mi, Ionia AMHR and Midland AMHR. We will be taking Tweet and the Palomino yearling and the little pinto mare we purchased from the Double Diamond Dispersal.

I already saw your display all the way from Michigan. As always Marty one heck of a job!! Absolutely fantastic around your farm sign. I too like the snoopy..... THANK YOU for the pictures!

For those that have had problems with hanging hay nets were the openings 1 1/4" or were they standard big horse hay nets. These nets we ordered are hockey nets with openings 1 1/4" I shouldn't have to worry about feet getting stuck in them.

Yep they hang from the ceiling. I HATE feeding off the ground where they are consistently reinfested themselves with PARASITES, ingesting dirt and sand (colic waiting to happen), not to mention feces and urine. Also,if you feed off the ground they consume their hay ration in minutes (terribly...

Hockey goal nets...... you sew them together and weave a drawstring at the top put a whole bale of hay inside and hang it from the rafters so the horses have a swinging feeder. The openings are 1 3/4" inch. Were thinking of putting them up with a rachet strap that can be tightened up every...

I'll second the "I WANT TO DRIVE!!!!!" We may brave the cold this weekend and go trail driving, just to get some video for Ginia to entice her to visit in the spring.

I purchased two bred mares this fall both are due in Feb/March. When I built my house I designed it as a walkout with the garage under the living area. These mares will be in that garage well in advance of their due date. It isn't heated but maintains about 40-45 degrees when the temp outside...

Training begins the minute a foal hits the ground. It's all a progression. The better the progression the easier they learn. Always keep one ear on the horse, they will let you know, if your listening.

My new little mare barely makes it through her 2' door no recent pictures of her yet. She's due in Feb. Bred to this young man. This will be my first miniature horse foal. Praying for a healthy little one.... God, a little black filly would be REALLY NICE, but I'll take whatever you see...

Hi Leia, I get on here so seldom.....its nice to talk with you guys. Feet can't slip the stirrups wrap around your foot and have no slip grippy stuff on them. It comes in REALLY handy if you do alot of road driving you can swivel to see if traffic is coming up behind you. AGAIN I LOVE LOVE...
