I think it's 60 cc per hour, but I'm not positive! Try some corn syrup to give him a boost. If the milk bar doesn't work soon, use a combo of goat milk and kefir to feed him. That's what we did last year with my one foal, Mom had a prolapsed uterus and took over 2 weeks to get enough milk...

You all are too funny!!! :new_shocked: Technically I don't do chores in my jammies because I hate wearing dirty clothes inside. I have designated outdoor clothes that get washed every couple of days. But my outdoor clothes are always those that are too filled with holes and stains to be worn...

Hi Susan, My 2 stalls are dirt floors and I hate it! Simply because we do have some flooding sometimes and the pee spots never dry. I would give just about anything to have concrete floors with a drain in the middle :

Being only 281 days it was more than likely way to early to save him. He definitely looks early to me, the tipped ears and long milk toes tell that story, plus the somewhat wispy coat. From just the pictures it looks like it may have been a twisted cord, but depending on how much you or the...

I used it once a few years back when nothing else was available for the flu/rhino combinations. I had a few sore necks but nothing really bad. One thing to keep in mind with that brand is that instead of doing an initial injection and then one booster shot, this brand requires 2 booster shots...

We actually use it already for personal use in our family for our chiropractic care, so it's good to know that it can be used for horse stuff as well, thanks for the info!

Since I am not breeding anymore the fescue problem is no longer a problem here at my place. However if I were still breeding I would probably steer clear of all fescues no matter what variety, but I'm also a huge worry wort. The guy I get this hay from breeds Paint and QH's he feeds it to his...

Okey Dokey, here is the picture of the fescue I feed. Fescue comes in many types, this one is called Fuego and it is an endophyte free variety. It's very clean and soft and the horses love it.

HI Debs, I'm feeding the Triple Crown Low Starch, I love it. The only reason I started feeding it a couple of months ago was to save on some of the hay I'm feeding. Only 3 of mine really need grain, like I've told you. But I'm running low on hay and wanted to stretch it some with something...

Oh Marty, I'm so sorry that Tracey had to leave you now. I'm so glad you made the decision to let her go now while she still had some light left. It's a very hard decision to make at any time with any animal, I know from experience. I too, think that she held on much longer than she normally...

I feed an Endophyte free fescue hay called Fuego, I will try and get a picture of it today and post it.

Took this a few days ago. It was way more intense in person, definitely the prettiest silver lined cloud I've seen :

At restaurants I typically tip just over 15% for good service, if the service is excellent then they get 20% or a bit more. If you are at a nice restaurant or just feeling generous it's also nice to tip your host/hostess. I worked at an extremely busy somewhat upscale restaurant as a hostess...

Oh Bev, I'm so sorry.........please let us know how your mare is after. I know just how you feel about the whole breeding thing which is why I was done after last year. And I have the same thoughts you do about selling some to right homes and seperating others Sending Hugs

I asked my farrier about this last year, and he said, "Sure they look nice and have better action that way, but it's horrible for their legs and tendons!".

I have a new part time boss who's name I can't pronounce, he says it very differently, it's hard to catch just by listening to him say it. Because of the type of person he is I feel he would take offense to me asking him. The name is: Baheej Thanks!!!

Drink a lot of water!!! You can also get these packets called Emergen-C, all health food stores have them as well as some walmarts, they come in a box of 32 packets I believe. The tiredness will pass, I promise...........I gave up soda over 2 years ago. The only kind I drink now is an...

Well I just got back from the Doctor and here is what I found out......... HPV is definitely NOT only transmitted sexually. I am not sexually active, and they suggested I still get it. All insurance companies, at least here in NM are covering the vaccine cost. However, I am NOT insured, thus...

I've suffered from eating disorders and consequently major weight fluctuations for years, the result......... My pancreas has been damaged and I'm slightly pre-diabetic, I'm already prone because it runs in my family. Like you Mona, I have a HUGE sweet tooth!!! Over a year ago now, I...

Everyone has given you great advice so far and I'm going to add a bit of my own. I know where you are coming from, I was your age not very long ago at all (only a few years), and like you when I got into the miniature horses back in 2002 I had very huge grandios ideas for what I wanted to...
