Vet and Farrier out today. No Rotation in Maggie's hooves!! Yes!! She is trying to push an abscess, up towards her cornet band on her right hoof. Farrier got her trimmed up, didn't charge anything extra for all the extra work. Vet only charged for 4 xrays, instead the 8+ she took. That was...

She gets itches and so on too. Have had Maggie so long, we are just happy to be around each other. Though....Maggie has always had a sweet tooth. Used to give her a slice of apple or carrot, or a horse cookie, every once in awhile. I don't use treats with her, to get her to do anything. It...

I had 9 of the Large Wheaten Ameraucana chicks hatch so far... only 8 are alive right now. Kat sent me 14 eggs. So not a bad hatch so far. Maran hen kept loosing track of the chicks, so I just brought them into the house. Not that I really have room with all the bantams, brooding in the house...

Beautiful garden and greenhouse Debby.... cute chicken too. Sort'a working in the garden.... need to take some up dated photos.

Maggie would love sugar free peppermints! As soon as I can get her body under control and feeling better, will give those a try.

Yes, have the pills in the bubble pack. And glad you told me about that. Thank you!

Alfalfa is not good in a horse with Cushings, IR, which has caused her to founder. But Thank you for the info Mona. Will check those out Chanda, Thank you.

Did not know they needed to be put in the Frig. Thank you for that. Yes, the Vet said 1/4 dose.

Mona, sadly, most timothy pellets are too high in natural sugars, at least for Maggie. Thank you Chandra, have had people tell me they are out there, but haven't found them yet. If I have to , if I can find a recipe, will make something up for her.

Yes, her Pergolide came in last night. They are in pill form (was told it is easier on horses), and gave her a 1/4 of a pill as prescribed by the Vet. At least as close to a 1/4, as I could.

Wee Maggie, has always had a sweet tooth... apples, carrots, normal horse cookies. She doesn't get them often, but she does love them. Now that she has Cushings and IR.... is there a Horse cookie out there, that is safe for minis with Cushings and IR?

This is Maggie, just before I made the tiny paddock, in the sheep run in shed. First year she hasn't shed out right. Will be clipping her, as soon as this batch of rain stops.

Thank you Mary. Sorry to hear one of your Mares has IR. No fun. Maggie has always been so healthy, so this kind of blind sided me. I have her on a Magnesium and Chromium supplement now... Quiessence. Because the hay here is iffy at best, and I would have to have each batch tested... I am...

Thank you Debby! Paula, these are not my fist Ameraucana bantams. These are replacements for the few I sold a couple of months ago. Shouldn't of done that. LOL I really love these bantams, super sweet, even the Roosters. Have been told, as they get older they don't lay as much. OK with...

Congrats on your new, very beautiful mare!

Lets see, so far this season I have hatched out.... 11.. of my Lavender bantams for a project I plan to work on. 15... Belgian d'Anver Bantams, Quail, Blue Quail, Millie, Lavender and one little odd ball colored one. Lavender Ameraucana bantams ( lady I was buying them from to replace...

Is wonderful news you were able to get some hay! No better feeling in the world.

That is good to know Chanda, Thank you!

Well crap.... Maggie's test results came back.... she has Cushings, she is also IR. sigh ~~~ Vet is ordering more Perglide for her now. Thank you Debby and Kendra.

If you are worried about her.... have a Vet check her out. If she isn't in foal, she could have Thyroid issues.
