Well, we just put them in the barn and fed, and afterwards she seemed fine, I just thought maybe she was hungry. We went up later and checked...

    Labor signs? (Updated with pictures)

    She delivered a adorable little girl at 3:40!! She is such a long legged, lanky thing! Her father was built like that though (I'm pretty sure he was mixed with a larger dairy breed) and so was her half sister. Mommy is doing good right now, but there hasn't been an after birth, only thing I've...

    Labor signs? (Updated with pictures)

    Haha. I guess, I just would have thought by now she would have kidded! Probably about the time I relax and get busy with other things, she'll decide it's time!

    I'm taking him to the vet today, they were booked up until the afternoon though. He's eating 4oz about 5-6 times a day. I'll have to go get a thermometer and check him.

    How do I find out of my horse is registered?

    Hello, so back in July I got my own horse (yay!), he's a sorrel/white paint horse gelding. I do not know his background at all really but I was wondering if there is any way I could find out if he is registered with APHA? I also found this registry called "Pinto horse association of America"...

    Dead Rhododendrons?

    My neighbors have Rhododendron bushes and my goats got over there this morning and found them, but the thing is the bushes are behind a chainlink fence, and the only thing the goats could reach was the dead leaves, and I don't think they got but a few . . . What should I do? Just watch them?
