    One of my minis has a big belly.

    All mine eat more than the recommended ammount of Equine Jr. Getting fat will not give them a belly. If I were you I would up the ammount of Equine Jr she is getting back to what it was previously or even more. My weanlings started to get bellies on them when they were on SafeChoice and hay. So...

    Local Fire-Scary afternoon

    It seems to be getting worse. I drove to LAwton yesterday and had to drive through the miles of smoke coming from the fires on the Refuge. And now Ive been watching the new cast about the fires in TX. What next? We need rain soooo badly. Sandy, it is near impossible to describe how dry it is...

    Fires in Texas....

    It looks awful down there. We have been having fires here in OK, but nothing compared to what they are experiencing. CNN was reporting over 1000 homes burned so far this year. I pray for those families.

    Hunting & tanning hides

    I've done it before and honestly it is HARD! Especially if you dont have the right tools. Once the skin is off you have to scrape the flesh side of it to be sure and get all the meat/fat off. Then you have to cure it in salt for so long. Then using the actual tanning chemicals starts. I gave up...

    Our Cheep Carport / Mini Barn

    Very cute. I hope to do something similar to this next year. You can also buy the carports with sides installed on them too for a bit more money.

    Stifle locked!

    I dont think that is enough protein for a foal that age. Course it depends on the quality of your hay also. Anyone else?

    Who here feeds Nutrena Safe Choice

    Im the one that started this thread originally. And well, my horses are still on SafeChoice. I put my weanlings on Equine Jr but everyone else is on SC. One difference is that right now I am not showing any horses. If I were, I would probably have to add something to thier feed for their coats...

    HELP!!!

    Yes, I secong the prep H and cover with a slinky. If the area is still very noticible maybe add a bit of the black show makeup at the show.

    Nationals Weather

    Yeah, we are so used to 100-110 degree temps now that the other morning we got up and it was like 85 and my 2 kids DID actually go and get hoodies to wear. I laughed at them the whole way to the car. Here in SW OK we are on like day 90 of temps over 100. And not a drop of rain like the rest of...

    Fire!

    Viki, have you heard from them lately? I was watching the coverage on TV last night and it looked awful there.

    Where can I find

    My vet says she is almost certain that it is an overabundance of these little gnats that we have here. She told me that she was seeing lots of horses and cattle with the same problem. The Dex is a steroid (i think) and must be used cautiously as it can cause founder if you give too much.

    Could use the power of positive thought

    YAY!!! Im so happy that you can finally start to put it all behind you!

    Where can I find

    Don't know a relief group, but if you find one I'll join too. A couple of my horses have it bad here. Only thing that I have found that helped is a shot of Dex, frequent bathing with an antibacterial shampoo, desitin over bad spots, and then daily app of fly spray with lanolin in it. Not so...

    pasture time/feed ? for weanling w/belly

    I just got all of my babies over on the Equine Jr as I have always found that they do best on it. They were all starting to get a belly and the hay that we have here is not much more than a filler. I feed the Equine Jr as much as they want. I try to give them enough that they still have a tiny...
