    Another new addition to the farm - and it was hubby's choice!

    Had another good day with Bubbles! Spent a few hours with her this morning taking her for a long walk, a small pick of some grass and then popped her back in her yard. I gave her a tiny handful of chaff in a bucket as a treat which I set on the ground. After a minute or two I went back in the...

    rilly10 - A Morgan stallion He must be beautiful. I'd love it if you could share a photo! Spent an hour or so in the yard with Bubbles this morning. Just some bonding time. After she finally decided to come and stand with me I plaited her mane and tail and gave her a grooming. She stood still...

    Those who suspected she wasn't a miniature are right! I probably wasn't 100% accurate but I measured her today as being 9hh or 36". In Australia a miniature pony has to be under 87cm which is 34.25inches. I made a quick rope halter up for her today because I had nothing here that would fit (my...

    The new pony is home! My husband picked her up yesterday whilst I was away at a work conference. Sounds like they had fun trying to get her into the trailer to bring her home..... I think she is barely halter trained from what I have heard. My hubby has named her 'Bubbles'. I had no say in...

    My hubby has told me earlier today that the pony is ours! Another lady came to look at her during the week but didn't want her. She will take a bit of work... but I have a few tricks up my sleeves and a bit of time on my hands so hopefully I can sort her out! My biggest issue to start with...

    Thanks SpeckledHills! We have a product here in Aus called Founderguard it's totally different to your supplement because it is actually an antibiotic but it is used in a similar way! I'll definitely look into something like what you have suggested if I come across problems on the way. $20 a...

    Thanks Bunnylady - you are right. The term miniature 'horse' is a US thing. Over here in Australia our breed society is the 'Australian Miniature PONY Society'. So therefore if she is a miniature... she is a PONY. Thank you! And the distinction between 'miniature' and just a small pony doesn't...

    I'd say she is 10hh or smaller?Not sure. I didn't get close up to her... this photo is the closest I got. In Aus a miniature pony is one less than 87cm in height.... (34").. I'll be interested to see how she measures up! I found out that they purchased her as a 2yo.. so she would be 3 and a...

    Ok... so we went and looked at the pony. I have since realised it was a secret ploy by my hubby to get me to go out to this place so he could get a new gun. Gun / Pony well what's the difference? Naughty hubby. He knows that I think he already has farrrrrrrr too many guns. So here's the pony...

    Heading out within the next hour to go and look at the newest addition to our farm..... a miniature pony! All the information has been relayed to me by my hubby..... so I really have no idea about this pony! My current understanding is that it belonged to a young girl who has lost interest...
