Thanks! :)

Do you have a link for the rebate? Went to the website but didn't see it.

I get both U7 and Quiessence from my Southern States Coop so you might want to check with your local feed store to see if...

Well that figures - just bought a gallon last week! Will need to put a reminder on the calendar to get some more before the rebate expires!

You can get round rails at Cove Creek Industries, just south of Charlottesville on Rt 29

Thanks for the nice start to my day and I LOVE your donkey in his blanket - too cute!!!

We have these in our barn, except without the yoke, and love them. Then swing into the stalls so they are never in the way. We open them after feeding and use a stall chain while doing chores and...

You can still find it if you look hard enough - I bought a gallon jug last time I saw some - should last for a good long while!

Don't know why they stopped making it - great for both new and old...

The vet I used to work for had sliding doors and he used heavy chains - never had to worry about injuries from the latch and it was easy to look down the barn at the end of the day and see that...

Ours are in the center for 2 reasons -

First, we have stall chains and it keeps them from visiting each other and second I HATE grain in the water buckets so feed tubs are in one corner and water...

If you are turning them out for 30 mins in the morning, add 30 mins in the afternoon and keep increasing the amount during those 2 times until they are up to a full day.

Two things made me a believer long ago -

First, watch a horse while they are being adjusted - you can see the relief and relaxation when they are finished. When it was over our horse looked...

When our horse used a half pad we got a set from Wilkers - the fleece saddle pad is thinner where the 1/2 pad rests which elimnates the bulk and makes it look more finished around the saddle.

We...

Congrats! We saw your hunter hack class - you all did great despite the pony-antics in the ring! :D

When we built our stalls, we started with 6 inches of fairly large stone then smaller on top and finished with stone dust mechanically packed.

Since you are patching, you could also use smaller...

You could add more stone dust and rent a mechanical compactor to bring it up to level and make the base firm, then add your mats on top of that.

Used it on DD's first horse - went from getting a piece of the hacks to winning the classes. Had people coming up to our trainer asking what we had done to him.

Using it on her current horse too...

Our wears a miracle collar 24/7 - only off for bathing, grooming and riding then right back on - he is hard core cribber who will crib on the cross ties if you leave him standing there for too long. ...

We have a concrete pad for ours

My daughter took her first horse to a 4H qualifying show - he is 100% long legged, fine boned TB, bay with a blood spot on his side.

I am standing there holding him and a group of girls are...

The purple is a Shiraz Cabernet and the bright blue is a Cabernet Merlot - haven't had the first but like the Cabernet Merlot. I also like that blend from Jacob's Creek.

While I like many of...

We have had chiropractic/acupunture work done on 2 of my daughter's horses - I just happened to have ridden both before and after and I can tell you there was a huge improvement.

On one horse we...

I am in VA and we have stone dust too - I use it around the barn and under the over hang where the horses. Depending on the area, some people use limestone - you will just have to check with your...

We have a 12x12 area under the run in at the back of each stall which can be boarded off - they can walk in and out of their stalls, but can't get up enough steam to do much else.

When ready...

Try adding MSM - works great on our itchy TB.

LOL - Goodhors, your post made my day! When I was young, my mother lost me in Macy's in NYC - after that she got a harness for me. My grandmother had a fit but mom stood her ground - come to think...
