Re: EDC shots...corrected ECP shots used for stifle soreness
It used to be a big thing but I not many people use it anymore. I never had it help.

Re: APF? Anyone using it?
Cheaper stuff is red cell or perktone-they do make the horses have a bit more energy and are cheaper. I just poured on feed.

Re: APF? Anyone using it?
I used it for about a year-didn't notice any real difference in horses.

Re: Amusements appropriate for dementia?
Such great ideas. My 85 year old Grandfather lives with me(he has been with me for over a year now) and Dementia is getting worse. I was thinking about ordering him some coloring books. He likes to cook, fill dishwasher, and do laundry-the only problem is that he breaks everything-as in the washer a...

Re: Old dog GI issues
I was going to suggest pumpkin as well. I used to buy just canned pumpkin in the store and mix in with their food. They loved it, thought it was a treat.

Re: Chickens
I've been on the lookout for Easter Eggers, just haven't been able to get any in my area. I don't think I have the set up at the moment to do babies-maybe once it warms up. Thanks for the great info-they are very fun to be around. These hens are friendly but don't want to be touched, they will follo...

Chickens
So, recently buying a small farm, I of course needed CHICKENS! Used a old playhouse to make a coop, has a decent size run(20 feet by 20 feet). Through Facebook, I found four lovely hens-golden comets. They seem like hardy, easy going, good beginner types(I had chickens at a barn, way back when). So,...

Re: Sharing your horse... Yey or ney?
I would do it, sounds like she could use to be under saddle a little more then you can do.

Re: Winter Feeding of the Older Gelding
Love the free choice grass hay, but would add a flake of alfalfa AM and PM. Since you can't be there everyday, this is fairly easy for a barn to do.

Re: Weaning - what grain
Hayburner-I switched out because i'm buddies with the guy that runs our local southern states-I have always had some horses on TC senior-he convinced me to switch over-he said the mill is better, etc and the price is better. My horses seem to have done really well on it and even picky eaters tend to...

Re: ever seen rain rot that...
Sounds like hives or an irritation of some sort that hasn't broken the skin yet. I would probably call the vet, probably could be on meds for a couple days and be all better. But yeah-I understand your hands are tied.

Re: BOT wraps vs traditional standing wraps...
As Hoof'n stated, love BOT wraps but don't want to overdue it on a length of time. I know with normal bandages, the horse can wear them for 24 hours if need be, but with BOT-would try to limit it to half a day.

Re: Rain Rot
I really like the Kinetic brand shampoos and creams. I usually try to soften the scabs up with some sort of cream, before picking. Makes it a bit less painful for the horse.

Re: Weaning - what grain
I've been feeding Legends Growth to my weanling. She is at a good weight. Its sold by Southern States, never heard of it before this summer. I switched from Triple Crown to them and all the horses look great.

Re: Moderately clubbed foot-to shoe or not to shoe?
If he is comfortable without shoes, I would go that way. Obviously, he wants to be half-barefoot anyways.
