Okay we drove 198 hours and 10 minutes this year! That's over 8 days of driving. Congrats everyone! I (hopefully) attached the PDF of the final driving spreadsheet. Let me know if I've messed it up and the PDF won't open for you :)

Happy New Year fellow drivers. In an effort to help me keep track of everyone's time please put the horse driven and time driven at the top of your post. That way I can easily find your times. Then feel free to tell us all about your driving day, or just your day in general. Rather than have...

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! I will get the driving hours updated ASAP and start the 2025 driving thread. Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season.

I should never join "for sale" facebook groups. I found a lightly used Marafun harness that will fit 4 of my 5 driving minis! It's hurricane blue and lime green. The super nice woman I bought it from shipped it out today. I was always going to buy a marafun but other things (vet bills, house...

@Standards Equine I'll get that fixed! Thanks for pointing it out to me. Okay here you go. Sorry it's so tiny. I need to update my inumbers program so I can just drop a link. But until I get that figured out...

I refuse to buy any feed for any of my livestock that has a coccidosant in it. There isn't enough in the feed to do anything but create resistance in the parasite and the risk to non-ruminant livestock is too great to have it anywhere on my property. This needs to stop being added to feed all...

@Marsha Cassada Blue is a good boy. I did/do have him for sale but everyone that claims to be coming to look at him never shows up. I'd rather get Wally sold but same. There just isn't a big market where I am for driving horses. Everyone wants to pay you $200 for a pet pony for their kids to...

Because my computer and icloud hate me here is another crappy screenshot of the hours from the last crappy screenshot to now. Also included is your YTD total for each horse :)

One hour each for Candace and Blue after dad helped me get the lines adjusted. Been a while since I've driven a team. It was a blast. Candace is usually lazy but in a team she's in charge and will not let the other horse out pull her. We actually have to put the left horse slightly behind her so...

I've been totally locked out of my account for a couple months. I'm here and back to counting hours! The fall driving is beautiful. My tiny trailer is amazing (likely a total waste of money in most peoples opinion but I kind of love it. Plus no one asks to borrow it :P)

It pulls really nice. We picked it up in Jerrall, TX. Took it out today to drive Wally and I absolutely love it. You do have to bend down in it but it's not terrible. I love that they can see out and that they have individual stalls. My wagons fit in the back really nice and the tack room is...

Wally is fat fat fat. I'm guessing EMS or insulin resistance. He's been on the same crappy grass hay as everyone else and he's got a HUGE neck crest. So exercise is the plan! 60 min and 4.25 miles today with Wally. He is a strong little bugger. He pulled myself, my 4 year old, and my dad in...

Okay so last month my dad and I drove 2400 miles in 3 days to get a mini horse trailer. It's titan low pro but it's been custom fit with slant stalls. The second stall is a solid stall so you can push your wagon/cart up against it and it won't roll into your horses. It'll hold 2 minis and my...

@Marsha Cassada thank you for starting this thread! I agree that we don't see as many people on here anymore and we've lost a lot of our very knowledgeable mini horse veterans. @1roadtoad anyone and everyone is welcome to any of our discussions. If you come in the middle of a long ongoing...

We've had the same problem with our big horse easy boots. I switched to Renegade Viper boots cause you can replace the Velcro. However, they don't make mini. Going to look in to the CLB's cause Candace needs something.

As the owner of a very co-dependant riding horse my suggestion is work with it instead of against it. You will all be happier. Adding a third member and making the duo a trio may help BUT I learned many years ago that a buddy sour horse needs that other horse to feel confident. My horse ripped a...

Can't wait to hear how it went! Also... What are the boots you have Phillipe in? Candace needs boots.

30 minutes driving Perry today while ponying Candace. My 4 year old son rode with me while my dad walked along with us since it was our first time ponying a horse while driving. 40 minutes drivning Candace. She was soooo slow. I think her feet may have been hurting her a little so I'll be...
