Quick update on my skinny gelding, he's fat and happy again! I maintained his feeding schedule through the end of the winter and after his round of wormings, he's back to his old self again. Levi is on pasture now and doing extrememly well, he looks great! Thank you all for your comments and...

WOW! Harry is beautiful you did a super great job!! :clap:

Im training these two for a woman in South Dakota, no way would I own an Arab or any type of Arab cross. I rode that Arab cross today with no problems though and two other geldings in training. I dont know what his problem was that night, but I full movement again but straight out from my body...

I've been bucked off, thrown off, and jumped off of horses but this last time really hurt! I have a pair of horses I'm training and the half Arab was being frisky the other night. I caught him, groomed him, saddled him, and got on. The first time he threw me I landed like I was sliding into...

Yes his teeth are good and he has a great appetite, comes right up and eats heartily, nothing drops out of his mouth. His temperment is great a real passive horse since he was gelded and aims to please. He's by himself so he doesn't get pushed out but he can touch other horses over the fence...

Brome is a type of grass hay and the bales are heavy, tightly compacted. Our other horses are on half that ration and no feed. They stand around all winter so there's no use in pushing feed to our horses and we don't believe in feeding alfalfa or free choice to our horses. Our bred mare just...

I have a 4 y/o paint gelding that I just can't seem to put weight on. He's super thin, his hips and withers are prominent, and he just looks like crap. He's fed 3 lbs. of horse feed and a bale of brohm a day. The vet's been out and put him on an aggressive worming schedule and we are only...

My opinion is that they are fat, these bumps are fat deposits. Of course I'm not a vet and you should have them checked out, but in my experience mares that get that cresty studdy neck are over weight. Like my sons quarter pony!

You bet I'll get pictures on when I pick him up. Actually our horse trailer is being built next week so I'll be picking up Monte next Saturday.

I bought a new project yesterday, pending a vet check. He's a 2 year old QH gelding cattle bred. I spent a lot of time looking him over yesterday and the current owner was more than accomodating, which I greatly appreciated. I'm excited to get him home and get some time with him, when the 60...

I was just giving you a hard time fella. As a matter of fact I do only have one rope, I'm not necessarily a minimalist, but I don't like clutter and I use only one at a time so why have two? :nod:

Nice looking hoss you have there, but I did notice that your rope is pretty clean :cboy:

Spring has finally sprung in my neck of the woods! It's 50 or so here today and I can't wait to get back in the saddle after the winter lay over.

Mine prefer the poop popsicles and then don't know why they can't bring them in the house...

Same at our place, unless someone drives by at 5 am or 5 pm they won't see us feeding our horses. We have one gelding who just loves to chew on wood whether it's bark or fence. I'd either stop to take a closer look or just go over and stop by. If you can see ribs, spine, and hips or if...

Ok lets get back to the original jist of the post...abandonment of horses. I just heard on the radio this morning that PETA wrote a letter to the mayor of Spearfish, SD requesting they change the name of their town. Good intentions don't always make for good business. Now that PETA, SPCA, and...

What a great picture! The first equine I learned to ride on was a Quarter horse pony named Joni, or Po (Joni Pony shortened to just Po). She was a gamer and loved to run but was bought from the Amish who used her to pull and so she has a hard mouth. She's given rise to a term my wife and I...

I wrote an article on pro-slaughter a couple of summers ago for an online horse magazine and holy cow was I berated and crucified! I can't believe what some people will believe. PETA and the HSUS really pulled a fast one on the country and I just shake my head because the average John Q...

Yes I'd also like to freeze brand our herd, but I too haven't gotten around to it and I haven't convinced my wife of it yet. I just heard on the radio this morning going to work that two mules were found on a local golf course with sale stickers on their hindquarters, but nobody has come...
