    Recession

    It hasn't affected us EXCEPT for the fact that our 6 acre farm hasn't sold yet....... Not complaining though......... We will still continue to work on our new barn, fence etc preparing for the day when we can finally relocate to it.......... We're not using a realtor at this time so we could...

    Ring test for sex of foal

    ..... Probably needed to pee. .. Some say this might have something to do with the water in the sac or in your mares case - water in the bladder?

    Did the registries sell our contact information?

    Don't recall that one but I periodically get emails listing horses for sale or auction etc. These emails aren't usually from the owners but from someone who is acting as an agent or such for them. Those emails do offer you the chance to unsubscribe though.

    Do you clip coupons?

    I clip the coupons from the newspapers then I don't feel so bad about getting the paper 7 days a week.... I try to use most of them when the item is on sale unless I need it right away. I then save what I didn't clip for my daughter for her to go through. She likes to use them all on one trip...

    Cowboy Hats

    No unfairness to it. Smart if you ask me..........There use to be a trainer that would wear gloves with the thumb dipped in apple juice - went through a lot of gloves but not unfair.......... What about people that keep grain/ grass in their pockets then turn that pocket toward the horses nose...

    How are the folks from Kentucky managing?

    What a bummer! Yes it has been and still is rough on a lot of people. Takes the whole family to keep things going. I hope your horses are doing well now. No water or electric ! Was dangerous to walk outside this morning with all that ice falling everywhere. Lines and trees are clear of...

    Oklahoma ice storm

    Laura, That is what it looks like here in Kentucky also. I just got through breaking almost 3 inches of ice off the top of our heat pump unit...... Between IKE this summer and now this we may have to cut the rest of the tree down in our front yard - it is looking pretty skimpy...... Ky has...

    Oklahoma ice storm

    Getting it here in Ky also. I called Texas this morning and the guy said someone in Ok that talked to him that morning said it was bad... Lee and I just got through putting up calf panels to keep the horses underneath their overhangs and inside their shelters... This allows us to get them out of...

    Hot water heaters

    Carolyn, I was reading on these recently. What I picked up was the statement, "they are efficient but they are not economical". Don at Pecos E has one if you want to contact him as to how he likes his. He also has a hot water heater as a backup ? and he explained why to us a few years back...

    Everyone Watching

    Think about ALL of the hungry children that could feed.. Considering the state of the current economy this is WRONG!......... More of the same.. Yes there will be Change - change in our pockets and big bucks in their bank accounts.. As to the question - yes I watched but I was not inspired.

    Using Agents to Sell Horses

    If the agent requires that your horse (s) be on their farm be AWARE that this is a way to get monthy board from you. After paying months of board and no sold horses you will find that you are in the hole rather than making a profit...... Some people have to have boarders to offset their own...

    FARMER'S MARKETS or ROAD STANDS

    I don't know if this has been mentioned or not, but check with your local restaurants. They might use you as a regualr source of certain in season veggies........ I saw a person on tv once that grew herbs and supplied their local restaurants with them.

    Anybody belong or use "Direct Buy"?

    I don't but I did call about it though.The closest show room to us is in Indianapolis but we go visit our son and his family there every few months anyway. When I found out you had to pay a fee to join I said no thanks... I figured in today's market you could find super deals on furniture, etc...
