    What's your favorite horse breed(s), and why? 😁

    I "went against the grain" w/ both Shetlands & Arabians. It was constant - from the open shows here in NC to even breed shows with both breeds. It always seemed we were facing "flack". But you are right. I did enjoy the equine we owned, brought our 3 girls up riding & have tons of memories...

    Horses!

    WOW! What a story! I looked him up. I probably heard of him through the many magazines I either received or studied from libraries or book stores when I could. He was born the year I graduated High School & started his eventing career just a 18 months before our "new" family of 4 returned...

    Horses!

    I am familiar w/ that name, but will have to look it up. He was/is a Connemara, right? If im thinking of the right pony, a bay.

    Horses!

    Ask you daughter if she knew or knew of "Wynn" (can't remember her last name anymore). She bred a warmblood pony, "Teddy", that was slated for Olympics. A pasture/barn accident took his life before competition. Here are 2 pics of Wynn riding & evaluating 2 of our 1/2 Arab ponies. She was...

    Horses!

    The same as BigBlueHen, I no longer have equine. I have lots of gear & hope to have ponies again some day... Thanks for inviting. I did just get my oldest website restarted... it was last updated in Nov 2020 & our last 2 old mares passed in Dec 2023. www.lppaintedponys.com

    What's your favorite horse breed(s), and why? 😁

    I haven't been able to ride since 2012, when not one but both hips started locking. Ive learned much since then. I have become a little more flexible but haven't had a chance to experiment. If I could try, id like a gaited horse, maybe mixed w/ draft. To have substance & frame to carry my...

    Aging of chicken poop question

    Another way, in existing beds, could be to open up the bed by moving your top layer of mulch & growing medium. Pull all that towards the outside wall s of the bed. Digging down about a foot, then add your buckets of not composted chicken manure & spread it out. Then cover it back up with your...

    Using Shredded Paper for Coop Litter - As Good As Wood Chips?

    Well id been not getting most receipts by getting via text, email or just registering from bank statements what is what. Now, the ones I do get will be going into trash instead of shred.

    Using Shredded Paper for Coop Litter - As Good As Wood Chips?

    I agree it can be work. Like when I use the little weaving loom, crochet or embroider, I can part out cardboard while watching TV. I just turn volume up 2 or 3 notches. I listen to Pandora on my phone while running the shredder OR can use headphones & watch YouTube vids whle shredding. I'm...

    Using Shredded Paper for Coop Litter - As Good As Wood Chips?

    Unfortunately, I didn't buy the new one. My husband goes through reviews, prices & orders most things. We hadn't really discussed the shredder, other than I told him that Office Max no longer carried one that could do cardboard (the 2 or 3 times I'd gone in) . The thrift stores i stopped in...

    Using Shredded Paper for Coop Litter - As Good As Wood Chips?

    My last one, purchased around 2010, "died" in 2023. In 2023, i missed a long/large copper staple. The mechanical teeth "shifted. It still works, but... not well. I didn't use it a lot at 1st, but when I did I went a whole Lotta crazy. LOL. I didn't do daily. Instead we had some room to allow...

    I found this reel & comments QUITE INTERESTING after my previous write up... https://www.facebook.com/share/r/19XvLMqjTk/ ETA - Honestly, she looks nothing like the heavy, wide, great boned Hancock bred working ranch horses i remember. She doesn't even look like she'd last through a...
