Thanks Kim, Sofie was over at MaryAnn's being bred back to Cowboy, and when I picked her up, MA told me that she had heard her start this coughing the day before, right after having a treat. No one else had been sick at her place or mine, so not worried really about anything contagious being...

Has anyone had a horse do this, and what did you do to treat/did it just resolve on its own? Sofie started this sporadic dry cough a couple of weeks ago, after having an alfalfa treat. She only coughs several times a day and no rhyme or reason to it, has no other symptoms of being off, good...

Either way sounds pretty bad!! But thanks for the education

Thanks for that input and detail, MaryAnn. The vet says she is getting too much hay, even when I described this in detail as above. So I will cut back the grain and up the hay in the hope that will help her! These guys also have salt & mineral blocks, plus get a 1/4 scoop HorseGuard supplement a...

Also was thinking of you and thought I would check in....you are in my prayers daily and I hope you have a wonderful weekend and have lots of energy to enjoy it.

May I ask Jill or MaryAnn, if I have an "idle" 33" broodmare that is not bred for '09, who is an extremely easy keeper, what ratio (approximately) would you feed her of senior complete to grass hay? What I'm giving her now isn't working because she is way too fat (right now she gets 1 c...

Kellie, I think it's the strange spring and summer weather we've had here this year. I had to re-clip 3 of ours late in July because in spite of a late spring clip, they had regrown thick coats. Their hair wasn't more than an inch long (looks like Billy's legs in your pic), but it was woolly...

Oh, it's Reggie then that I adore! Those big beautiful liquid eyes Is he a steer (like a gelded colt?) or do you do that with cattle if they are kept as pets? Hope you don't mind my asking; I don't know much about them and it's interesting to me

They are here in my town and I have never heard of them! What a creative order confirmation, that is really fun!!

Brandi!! I LOVE that Buddy the Jersey bull calf!!!!! He is my favorite and I think the camera loves him too!

They are both fantastic! Congratulations and so glad you shared pictures for the rest of us.

I don't know either! She sure has the PG belly back, maybe the foal has turned and moved into a new position, like you mentioned. It is maddening isn't it! All we can do is watch and wait. My big-horse neighbor was over today and looked at my mystery mare and pronounced her "extremely fat"! She...

Let's foal already Bonny, I feel your mom's pain! I keep checking in on your latest posts because I'm in a similar boat. I have all but given up on the one I've been watching since March (seller gave me written "due date" as March 14th, later told me mare had been with stallion till I picked...

Congratulations! He is fantastic

I love that Arenosa bloodline! She is a beautiful filly and I too would like to see more pictures of her!

Congratulations! He is beautiful and SO tiny! :wub

Welcome Colleen, Very exciting that you've got at least 2 people nearby just from the forum! I've also only had minis about a year, and finding some local people who were willing to mentor me and just be sounding boards for my questions, plus becoming addicted to this forum, have been the best...

Brandi, I am soooo glad you made the effort to get Lady into the right place. That was heartwarming to read and see, and so good of the new owners to let Aaron visit. He looks so happy

Kim, she is really something special! I especially love her face in the halter picture, Nancy is right. I think it's great how she's come back to her first home after being out seeing the world

Thank you everyone! Susanne, we are going to meet one of these days! It sounds sappy, but in all sincerity, having these horses is the fulfillment of a lifelong dream for me! Wanted my own horses forever, and as an adult, the big ones have lost their pull on me but the minis are exactly what I...
