Wow, I'm so glad Karrel made it home OK. I'll keep the driver in my prayers The temps started to drop here late this afternoon. The wind has picked up and it's just bitter cold out there. Your storm is headed this way. My poor chicks out in the barn are NOT amused, but they have heat...

Thanks so much everyone Zac is a sweetheart, but can be a pistol too! I always say that Mia had to learn on her own to be feisty, Zac has an older example~LOL

How are you doing sweetie??? Lindsey & Dianne have the Marlee painting framed (beautifully!) and it's hanging in their living/dining room. It looks so wonderful!! You did such an amazing job...crying doesn't even begin to describe their reactions. It brought Marlee girl back to them

I haven't been by in a while, so I wanted to drop by and wish all of my friends a wonderful Christmas and happy, healthy New Year. Steve and I are doing great and will celebrate our fourth anniversary on New Year's Eve. Mia is *8* and Zac is 3! Do you believe it?!?!? I remember everyone...

Yep, someone just tried that with us on a travel trailer.

Yes the mats can be torn by horses and pulled up...some of ours considered it a great game to pull them all up overnight at shows. You can run a strip of duct tape down the seam for horses that paw more. BUT, we used pelleted bedding with the mats our last 2 years at nationals and I don't...

Steve told me a little while ago "shouldn't you be laying on the couch being QUIET?!" I think I was over-supervising~LOL Oh well, he's used to it

I feel so bad for them. I have a system for chores and most days, it goes without a hitch...other days...well, it's not pretty~LOL I think they've had a few of those days in a row!

I had a hysterectomy on Thursday. No more forum babies from me I've not been on the forum much while trying desperately to get prepared for being out of commission for 2-6 weeks. My pain level is actually about equal to what it was BEFORE surgery, which is amazing!! They were able to leave...

I use regular round bale (solid bottom) feeders. They are all inside large portable panel paddocks inside our chicken house. The stallions and dry lotted mares have large paddocks with access into each indoor pen/paddock. Even Jammer has his own round bale. Steve laughs when he puts it in...

Hmmm, Macy had an almost black, HUGE spot over her entire hip (she's a fading grey) when she was younger. Jammer (sorrell tobiano) has dark spots in his color, we called them "smutty spots"

We have HUGE packs of coyotes around here, HUGE. They stripped a large yearling mini mare OVERNIGHT two years ago when she went down in a creek, apparently bogging down and breaking a hip. STRIPPED to large bones left only, OVERNIGHT a 250 horse....that's a BIG pack! She had gone top ten in...

To me, as a seller, "pending" means the papers are AT the association already...and for an extra $20 or so I can have them rushed to me to complete the sale. "Eligible" means the buyer need only send in the paperwork I have provided to them or have ready to send. I'm selling a lot of young...

See, I'm on the other side I guess. I recently borrowed a lovely mare from a friend. She was barn, herd, everything sour, to the point of attempting to spin and bolt home, not just being stubborn. It was fun to RIDE again, but she was NOT fun to ride, just constant fighting. I sent her back...

Cell phone, chains for stall and padlocks and preferably a dog that loves you VERY much and hates anyone else While keeping your horses safe, pelase remember to keep yourself safe. D had someone try to get into her sleeping stall the last night of Nationals a few years ago. Fortunately I...

OH MY GOODNESS!!! How wonderful!!!!

Also, closing the US slaughter plants took away the BOTTOM to the market. If EVERY horse is worth a minimum of $.80/pound, EVERY 1000 pound horse is worth $800.00 When that was taken away, out went the bottom..

Our leopard stallion and many of his foals show a singlefoot gait (like a running walk), as do some older type full size appaloosas. Liz McMillan (yes that one) crossbred minis and walking horses, eventually getting gaited minis. When you see a horse with the "Walking M" prefix or WM suffix...

Does anyone know who the animals were seized from?

and people wonder why I rarely come to the forum anymore...
