I can tell you from a first hand experience that a snake bite is NO PICNIC! I was bitten by a copperhead on my ring finger a few years ago. I spent a week in the hospital!! My finger still swells on & off. Janis

Laura, I'm sorry to hear you have it. We had it go thru our family about a month ago. It was the sickest I've ever been in my life. I missed 4 days of work - should have been 5 but everyone was crying for paychecks - I could have cared less. My husband didn't have the vomiting part, my son...

I completely agree about a good gate keeper! At my very first show, I was about to go into the ring and I guess I looked terrified. The man at the gate asked me if I knew what to do - I told him "I didn't have a clue!!!". He laughed out loud and told me "that's ok, none of us do - just follow...

Really? I thought they would measure taller - I've got a mare that's right at 34" and I was worried about her and her foals. I can't seem to find that little "place" where they want us to measure anyway. I don't know how I'm gonna measure any future foals :DOH!

Thanks Becky!

Hi everyone, I'm sorry if this has been discussed on another thread and I missed it. I was wondering what happens to the papers on the foals of horses that have had their papers turned in because they went "over" under this new measuring rule?? Since the sire or dam is now "over", does that...

We just received one from that Kate Williams too! They need to find a REAL job! Janis

What we have here is a little different. Our mares foals are allergic to the the colostrum. This mare had many foals for us then then we had a colt the we "thought" must have gotten into fire ants. He had blisters all thru his mouth, on his tongue, his privates and bottom. We stripped the...

I don't want to alarm you, but this is my experience. We had a mare the would show ALL the signs of labor, she would get so far, then completely quit. She did this MANY times. We voiced our concerns to our vet and got the response "she'll have it when it's time". She ended up doing this for...

Tony, I am so sorry for your losses. I can't even imagine the heart break. We all know that no matter how much we try to make things safe for our horses, stuff happens. I hope that time & prayer will ease the pain. Take care Janis

Such a pretty boy! I'm so sorry! Janis

I think it's just common courtesy to answer every e-mail whether it's someone just "kicking tires" or an inquiry about a sold horse. COMMON COURTESY POEPLE! But, how about this one - get an e-mail regarding horses - e-mail back & forth a few times then get a phone call - in the phone...

Rita, I'm so sorry! I know she had a wonderful & loving home with you. I'm sure she's just loving her green pastures but will always remember you and the love you gave her. Janis

Hey, I live in Texas and have been looking for a Pyrenese or anatolian or cross. I would rather have a female, but males need love too! Let me know if you can't find a good home for him Janis

Amy, same sire for all of them. Our silver buckskin stallion. We just love him. He puts such gorgeous foals on the ground for us and every one is a big surprise because we never know what we're gonna get. It's that "box of chocolates" thing!!

Our silver bay mare has given us 4 beautiful foals - all a different color: we have a light golden palomino filly, a silver buckskin stallion, a sorrel filly and a red roan colt. How's that for variety??? I'll try to post the pics.

I have read this many times and it ALWAYS makes me cry. Janis

OH, I GET SO CONFUSED Thanks everyone - I'll send in the tests to be sure. Janis

Ok, now another thing that makes me think that they are both perlino is both sires & dams are buckskin or silver/cream buckskin. Am I right to think that buckskin X buckskin wll produce perlino?
