Just saw this, and wanted to add my prayers for Connie to have a speedy recovery. I know how excruciating back pain can be. My husband, John, woke up one morning a few weeks ago with such severe back pain that he couldn't even roll over to get out of bed. I had to call the squad to come get...

I've had several under 30" minis over the years.....but right now, all of mine are just over 30". BUT.....I do have a 3 year old dwarf named Button who is 21". She is definitely the favorite whenever someone comes to the barn. We also share her with nursing homes, parades, and handicapped...

This absolutely cannot be a 42 year old mare. It is very rare for a horse to reach that age....and if they did, they certainly would be in NO shape to conceive, let alone be carrying a foal. And teaching a horse to drive at that age....that's just rediculous. Someone is simply naive &...

Sometimes "Good" DOES win!

YEP......Carl Mitz is the BEST! Much more reasonable than my vets, and does a much better job! Don't know what I'd do without him!

That little darlin' is a Triple Ten for sure!

Hi Mike! Welcome to the Forum....absolutely THE best place in the world for Miniature Horse enthusiasts! There's a wonderful group of people here who will answer any of your questions & give you great advice. You have already been told about the Bluegrass Miniature Horse Club....but there is...

Getitia, It doesn't surprise me at all when I hear of your National wins. You have an unbelievable breeding program, and it shows in the foals you produce. You are one of the most knowledgable breeders I've come to know in the years I've been involved in Miniatures, and one I've always...

That IS great news! But it's just a step in the right direction. I remain cautiously optimistic, as so far he has only be "charged"....hasn't been convicted yet. And we all know how crooked the justice system can be. I will celebrate when this guy is convicted & sentenced...hopefully for...

This colt could still be carrying Sabino even tho he tested negative. The Sabino test available now, will only test for one of the Sabino genes, and there are others that there are no tests for yet. ;-)

I'll take 16 today

The new bags are dated 0SEP1......so that means they were bagged the first of September 2010. AND, the pellets look fine & smells wonderful. That also means that the bags I returned (which were dated 9Nov12) were bagged Nov 12, 2009...almost a years ago! They had been setting around in a...

I am so sorry to hear this. Dr. Eberth's passing will leave a big void not only in the hearts of his family & loved ones, but in the Miniature Horse world as well. My heartfelt sympathy goes out to his family.

I checked the dates on the bottom of the bags, and they all said 9NOV12 (so, that means they were bagged last November??!! I returned them to the Co op where I purchased them, and they are replacing them with some they are getting from another location and which are dated SEP1 (I am...

Thanks Bess. You are right....it is supposed to have a slight licorice aroma. And keeping some to test is a good idea! The off-colored pellets seem to be that way all the way through tho...so not sure if it's mold or what is going on.

Actually, I've had no problems at all when buying my feed from TSC. It was when I got it from our local elevator that I ended up with the bad bags.

Thank you Kay! I was wondering if maybe I wasn't over-reacting, but I'm sure I'm not. It IS absolutely the worse smell I've ever smelled in any horse feed I've used. Will be calling Purina AND returning it all to the elevator I bought it from!

I have been feeding Strategy to my adult horses for a while now. Have been getting it from our local TSC store in heavy paper bags. Recently got a batch from our local elevator who carries Purina lines. Noticed it was now in white plastic bags. Opened up the first bag a few days later & it...

Welcome back Sandy!!!! Good to have you here again.
