    Can pregnancy cause stifle lock symptoms??

    The pictures do help. I think both your mares are very cute sweet looking mares. Love the way they are both marked. As for Indi, it does appear she is a little straight in the stifle area which is the cause of stifle problems. But I have seen way worse and the horse never have a problem and...

    Can pregnancy cause stifle lock symptoms??

    I am not saying someone is not telling the truth here but just throwing out some ideas. How well do you know these people you bought the horse from? How old is this mare? Did she get stressed, buck, kick or just act a little crazy when you brought her home or on the trailer ride? Did she have a...

    Arrival announcement!

    Well he has come in with a bang. Didn't expect to see this much color, but WOW is all I can say! He sure is nice! Is he either a bay snowcap or a few spot. Would love some input on what he is and what appy pattern he is. Not real familiar with appy coloring. Here he is and no name yet.

    Reproduction Questions

    Sometimes if you are pasture breeding, you might have to hand breed to make sure they get a good cover and don't over breed. Things to consider: I know you said it seems she doesn't go out of heat. I think she should be vet checked. I would remove her from the stallion. Give her a shot to get...

    together or separate?

    If possible, definitely together when possible! They are horses and horses are herd animals.

    Various PreFoaling Questions

    I think your mare is VERY close to foaling. With her laying down that can make her vulva more relaxed looking and it can puff out like hers is. If she is not trying to push and is not sweating or seems to be in distress, I would wait on calling the vet. But I have lots of experience in foaling...

    Full moon this weekend

    For those that are mare watching and look at the full moon for one of the hopeful foaling times, this weekend's full moon is suppose to be 1 in MANY years. Sorry they were talking about it on the radio while I was doing chores and didn't hear most of the details. But I did hear that it is...

    Breeding Season Which Stallion for which mare?

    Just want to say all horses are beautiful! And I think all of yours are. But no horse is perfect and not all horses should be bred or you have to be careful what you cross them to. Wanted to say Elvis is your better stud prospect. Duffy is beautiful and I love his facial expressions and looks...

    question for those of you who switched from horses to minis

    Well for the physical changes in handling and working around minis versus big horses. The one and most important thing that does require lots of time bent over, or on your knees, or squatting is grooming and clipping. What I do once I know my mini will stand quietly is sit on a bucket that is...

    Breeding Season Which Stallion for which mare?

    I like your sorrel pinto filly but I feel she will have a short thick neck and throat latch like her sire. I would breed Mia to Elvis. Unfortunately, I don't think Fancy is a good cross with either stallion. Her colt was nicely colored by Elvis but I would like to see what he grows up like...

    Do you think she's in foal?

    She looks in foal. But I guess she has a least 3-6 weeks to go yet. She doesn't quite look as far along as my maiden mares and they are due June 9th and 10th. But time will tell. Good luck!

    Minimally expressed dwarf being bred...advice

    Well unfortunately, you can't help people that don't want help or think they know it all. Yes the animals are the ones who pay the price. Hopefully this little mare is sterile. That is the only thing that is going to save her at this point. Does this lady have internet? If so, have you told...
