    Skins issues....

    Hi, I'm a relatively new mini owner of three years. I have a black and white mare who I thought had ring worm. I have been treating with a fungicide spray. My other minis do not have it so I'm not sure what it is. She had spots on her face and chest. It seemed to clear up but now she had some...

    Info needed on stallions

    For me being agressive is trying to occasionally bite or nip. He's very good. We have him to breed the two girls. I have seen him mount both. Here's my other question: once they're bred, will he stop trying to breed them. My only experience is with goats and sheep.

    Info needed on stallions

    I have asked questions before as I'm relatively new to the mini horse world. Our minis are 2, 2 and 3. Our stallion's behavior is changing and I anticipated it would as he matures. I guess what I want to know is will he get aggressive when the girls are in heat and calm down when they're bred or...

    She bites her legs and rubs her shoulders. She seems to rub when she first comes into the barn.

    Itchy Mini

    Hi all! I'm a rather new mini owner. I have a mare who as soon as she comes into the stall, starts itching against the wall. I have put powder on her for mites but she continues. Any thoughts? My other two are not exhibiting this behavior.

    New stallion owner

    Thank you so much for your response. His name is Liberty and he was returned to the farm he came from because his owner had a stroke and died. He is only a year old so I don't know how he was treated but I'm assuming it was good because he loves to be groomed and has never been afraid of me. We...

    My baby mini is running away!

    She doesn't want to come in to the barn....she want to do her own thing. I'm thinking of taking a horse treat out in my pocket next time I go out to get her so it's a positive thing?
