    Vet visit...hmmm

    Yes, I found the neutrena mare and goal feed works wonders and isn't super spendy!! It helped my filly grow just wonderfully and she is nice and filled out!! It's worth a try!!

    I only want my Mom!

    Oh good!!! My mini started eatin hay, grain, and water just an hour after birth. It was weird ad she would choke once jn a while, but I couldn't really keep it away from her. Lol. She started grazing at 6 days old. Idk if she was just an advanced baby or what but its our first and only foal we...

    ♥ ♥ ♥ 2012 Foals ♥ ♥ ♥

    I will have to post pics of my filly born April 17, 2012!! She is so cute! I just love her. It was just a one time thing. We don't breed minis. Lol

    Feeding paprika?

    I think hay, water, and grain and maybe some vitamins are the only thing horses should have. If you want your horses coat to shine use the vitamin called equipride!!! It is a miracle worker!!!!!

    weaning

    My minis just didn't care to be seperated so I started weaning her at 4 months. I don't believing in seperated them so they can't see each other, it's more comforting for them to see each other.

    Good word of mouth................

    I am from Minnesota!! I am going to look at the mini express to find some mini masks!! Star lake farm is also a great place to find cheap mini horse stuff!!

    pros/cons for fly masks

    We have fly masks for all of our average sized horses but I think I am going to order some for our mini horses and mini donkeys!!

    Vet visit...hmmm

    Also with worming, I would have her checked for worms before worming every month because our vet said don't load your horse with wormer unless you have to! We had our horse tested and she said they were free of worms so he said to only worm our horses once a year!

    Vet visit...hmmm

    I have a weanling filly that is 4 months also! I always fed her mom neutrena mare and foal feed, and the first day my filly was born she was eating the grain ( she choked on it but she loved it) and she still eats that grain to this day! Do you know anything about her history? I would have...

    Before and after - what a difference.

    Yes what is your trick?? My mini mare had a palomino filly this April and her stomach has not gone down since the day she gave birth!! What can I do? I trained her to drive this summer and I drive we often, I trained her to lunge to help build muscle and lose weight but nothing is working...

    What are your show grooming tips??

    My dad always uses that for getting grease off of his hands from cars, but I never thought it would work for horses!!! I will have to try that now!!

    Also, what should I do about the fungus in her hooves??
  14. kay56649

    My mini has little or no frog and hollow hooves in the front!!!!!

    Should I be soaking her feet? I am totally blind on what I can do at this point except for getting her hooves trimmed! We have had a few people look at our other animals and our farrier does a beautiful job on them, it's only her that he doesn't do good on!!

    My mini has little or no frog and hollow hooves in the front!!!!!

    So if you had to give me advice on what needs to be done in the first trim, please explain what it should be? Should I be putting thrush medication on it or is it just due to her hoof being to long?

    My mini has little or no frog and hollow hooves in the front!!!!!

    I am honestly not underestimating our vets! They don't have enough experience with horses. We have tried to get their opinion on some horse things and it's either "I don't know" or some common sense reason. We have been working on her standing better for the farrier and touching her feet more...

    My mini has little or no frog and hollow hooves in the front!!!!!

    Also, all of the rest of the farriers in town are usually booked and most of them won't even take new people! The good farrier in our town won't accept anyone else new. We have ready called him. So we are pretty much stuck with the one we have. Next time we are over we will ask him to correct...

    My mini has little or no frog and hollow hooves in the front!!!!!

    Our vets here know nothing about horses, just how to give them shots and take coggins. We are limited to only a couple of farriers in the town I am in. We will try to give her the best hoof care we can! Thank you so much for your advice!! I will see what we can do about farriers, because he...
