I have 3 of the K&H ones on my front porch of my house for my barn..er.. front porch cats. They LOVE them in the winter and when it is cold they only...

Mine have the metabolism of Shetland ponies but I still try to have hay in front of them all the time. But not unlimited super premium orchard grass....

Both of Lisa's are heading to Hilltop. Maybe you can get somebody in the area to check them out.

[SusanO]

Yes you are right - no HO bulbs at Lowes. I had to stop on the way home to take back the bulbs I bought Thursday night. It is more complicated than getting...

Hay buying was hit and miss this year so I am feeding a variety to stretch the good stuff. They eat the good stuff and pee on the other less desireable...

[SusanO]

Well it depends......... My first mare was 15.1 as a two year old and I think she shot up a half an inch over the years. She looked very "finished"...

[SusanO]

I still think you get the best bang for your buck with a two year old. The prices are not that much higher than foals and the breeder has assumed the...

I just remembered - there WAS a company in Florida that had a business model like this. I say WAS because they went under after being in business for...

[SusanO]

I might do it in early Spring if I was running out of good hay and no other options were available. But that price is not sustainable for me all year...

[SusanO]

If I win the lottery or get my other projects paid for - whichever comes first I will change out the light fixtures. The lights are not turned on enough...

Those prices are on par with alfalfa around here. Most of the larger feed stores carry Halls ( New Mexico) 50 lb compressed bales for about $16. But I...

I have a friend that just bought two. Both young stallions. They are not at her farm as they are being prepped for stallion licensing. The word is that...

[SusanO]

I will look at the old bulbs harder. I bet they are HO. I do NOT leave lights on in the barn. I rarely use them but with DST and having to clean stalls...

[SusanO]

I have a bunch of these tubes that have burned out or are just about burned out in the barn hallway. When I go down there in o dark thirty in the morning...

[SusanO]

Hey my horses dropped their summer coats and what is growing in is healthy and gleaming. Lots of dapples. None of mine need to gain weight. ( I am hoping...

[SusanO]

If you pick the hay up it is about $16 for a 50 lb bale. That is pricing it out of my budgeting for hay. of course I live so far away from that kind...

I bought the smallest arena drag from Premier a few years ago and bought the attachment so I didn't need a 3 point hitch. I have a 25hp Husqvarna mower/...

I am not in Canada but anyway - no way would I pay money for this voodoo. My hard earned salary goes for real medicine.

[SusanO]

I see a combination of a hoarding seizure and Doug Spink. At least DS had good stallions but the same delusions of grandeur.

[SusanO]

Some of that crap showed up on my Facebook page. I am not sure why? Scary stallion/ horse management. I asked why the stallion still had his nuts. I guess...
