We are dedicated to the breed of the miniature horse. During foaling season we stay up for approximately 100 nights watching the broodmares, while still continuing to do all the necessary work during the day. We strive to hand deliver each and every miniature horse foal that is born. Each brood mare and foal is kept in the barn with turnout for the first 30 days after being born. All our miniature horses are grain fed each and every day of the year. We wean our foals at 4 months of age. After that they are grain fed twice a day, with non rationed hay, plus turnout during the coolness of night on fertilized pasture. All the foals are led on a halter while here at the home place during turn out time. They are handled on a daily basis the first 30 days after they are born. All the foals have their ears, chin, and leg hairs clipped during this time. They are wormed twice the first 30 days along with their dams. At weaning time they are tied up and led with a halter. They get their necessary shot and are wormed on a 6 week interval. They are all body clipped once they settle down from the weaning process. We spned up to 20 hours a day during the foaling season, working and taking care of the foals and dams and doing all the necessary work that needs to be done. A baby horse on average ranges from 17 to 21 inches at birth.
