WELL I WAS INFORMED TODAY THAT I WAS THE TALK OF LIL BEGINNING.I WOULD FIRST LIKE TO SAY YES THE PICTURES ARE AWFUL-I AGREE.I WAS THE OWNER OF THIS MARE KRISTI WHEN CYNDI BOUGHT HER.I AM NOT AFRAID NOR ASHAMED TO ADMIT IT AND I WELCOME ANYONE WANTING TO TURN ME IN TO DO SO,I OWN 7 MINIATURES,IM IN LIGONIER PA AND MY HORSE FARM IS ALLSTAR MINIS.PLEASE DO HAVE THE AUTHORITIES COME TO MY FARM,ID WELCOME THEM AND SHOW THEM MY FAT MINIS!WHEN I GOT KRISTI ON APRIL 21ST TONY OF LITTLE AMERICA HAD TOLD ME THE 2 BRED MARES WERE THIN.HE TOLD ME SILVER WAS EXPECTING AND THAT HE DIDNT BELIEVE THAT KRISTI WAS EXPECTING ALTHOUGH HE HAD HER POSTED AS IN FOAL ,HE GAVE A $500 DISCOUNT ON HER BECAUSE HE DIDNT FEEL SHE WAS IN FOAL BECAUSE SHE WAS SO THIN.(YES TONY I DO HAVE YOUR EMAILS AND I DID FORWARD THEM TO CYNDI WHEN SHE ASKED ABOUT KRISTI)A DAY OR TWO BEFOR THEY WERE PICKED UP TONY EMAILED SAYING KRISTI HAD LOST HER MAIDEN LOOK SO SHE MAY BE IN FOAL BUT WAS STILL THIN.HIS EXACT WORDS COPIED FROM AN EMAIL DATED 4 -17-07 'I am really sorry that Future is so thin. In her winter hair she looked good. If I had known how bad she looked I would not have sold her. If you are unhappy with her, just have Brian bring her back. Of course, her Too Incredible foal may more than make up for her condition.'.WHEN BRIAN DROPPED THEM OFF I ASKED HOW EVERYONE WAS DOING.HE SAID THE FILLIES ARE FINE THE MARES NEED SOME TLC.SILVER FOALED THAT NIGHT EVEN THOUGH SHE WAS VERY THIN BUT NOT NEARLY AS THIN AS KRISTI.THE DAY AFTER I GOT THE GIRLS(I GOT 4 MINIS FROM TONY)I EMAILED ASKING ABOUT KRISTI'S FEEDINGS AND I THOUGHT SHE WAS DEPRESSED BECAUSE SHE DIDNT EAT MUCH AND WAS VERY LAID BACK.HE TOLD ME THAT HE WAS SORRY THE GIRLS WERE THIN AND THAT KRISTI WAS IN WITH A HERD OF 150 MARES AND STOOD BACK AND WAS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE TOTEM POOL.HIS EXACT WORDS COPIED FROM HIS EMAIL ' I am guessing you mean Future(I NAMED HER KRISTI). 'She was so low on the totem pole here in the pasture that she just stood back until everyone ate everything, I think.

AND THAT SHE GOT THE 'LEFTOVERS' WHICH WE ALL KNOW THERE ARE NO LEFTOVERS WHEN IT COMES TO GRAIN.I WILL BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO EMAIL ALL EMAILS TO ANYONE WANTING THEM AS I STILL HAVE THEM AND THEY ARE ALL DATED AND I WILL HAVE THEM COPIED AND HANDY FOR THE HUMANE SOCIETY.ALSO I WILL HAVE HANDY THE RECIEPT FROM VALLEYVET SUPPLY FOR HORSE SUPPLIES AND MEDICATIONS WORMERS AND ANYYTHING I THOUGHT MY MINIS WOULD NEED,IT IS OVER $1000 JUST FOR THE ONE RECIEPT ALONE WHERE I ORDERED ALOT OF SUPPLIES(FOALING SUPPLIES,WORMERS,CALCIUM SUPPLIMETS,ETC).I HAVE MANY RECIEPTS FOR WORMERS,HARNESSES AND ANYTHING THAT THEY NEEDED!I DO BELIEVE I SENT CYNDI A COPY OF THIS AS WELL.I WANTED HER TO KNOW THAT I DID AND DO WORM MY HORSES EVEY 2 MONTHS AS DIRECTED BY THE VET AND OTHER MINIS BREEDERS.I HAVE PICTURES OF KRISTI THAT I SENT WITH HER PAPERWORK TO AMHA.IN THE PICTURES SHE IS VERY THIN JUST AS TONY SAID SHE WAS AND HER BONES WERE STICKING OUT SO WE DIDNT REALLY THINK SHE WAS IN FOAL.ON JUNE 8TH KRISTI HAD A COLT IN THE PASTURE.WE WERE SHOCKED BECAUSE SHE DIDNT SHOW AT ALL SHE WAS JUST SO THIN.THAT WAS ONLY 6 WEEKS AFTER WE HAD GOTTEN HER.I ACTUALLY THOUGHT SHE WAS PUTTING ON A LITTLE WEIGHT BECAUSE I FED HER SEPERATELY BUT HERE SHE WAS IN FOAL.AFTER SHE HAD THE FOAL SHE WAS SO VERY THIN.WE HAND FED THE BABY SOME AND LET HIM EAT FROM MOM.SHE WAS JUST SO THIN BUT I KNOW YOU CANT OVERFEED THEM SO NO TONY SHE WASNT GETTING A LOUSY CUP OF FOOD PER DAY.I DIDNT PAY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS FOR HORSES TO STARVE THEM.SHE WAS FED 3 AND 4 TIMES EACH DAY BECAUSE SHE WAS SO THIN AND I KNEW SHE WAS FEEDING THE BABY OR IN YOUR WORDS TONY AGAIN COPIED FROM AN EMAIL WHEN I ASKED ABOUT HER WEIGHT 'I didn't mean to alarm you. She's not that bad, but timid with the mares and she was in a pasture with over 150 mares! She will pick back up, healthy, just sending her "groceries" to the foal. When she doesn't have to fight for her share of the oats, I am sure that she will put on weight.

: ). Boy was that fun! 
: Well she was just a spazzy pony. She was hard to handle, mean, and we really could not ride her. When we bought her the people told us she was five. And we found out she was 20! So as you can imagine, that wasn't a happy little pony. So we gave her to a rescue farm that retrains their horses and is a Kids w/ Cancer place. So that was a nice farm to go to. :bgrin So now we have our mini. And she is just right.
