This is a horse chat thread where we share ideas, ask for input from other horsemen, and talk about our riding and horse-keeping. We have a lot of different kinds of riders and horses, and a lot to share. In the previous threads we have had a great time talking through lessons, training, horse lamenesses, illnesses and pregnancies... and always sharing pictures and stories.
I always have a link to this thread on my profile page, so if you have something to say and can't find the thread in latest posts… look for it there and wake the thread up!
I also have a ping list for horse threads that are of interest, and MissTargets will now be pinging everyone most mornings. Let MissTargets and/or me know if you would like to be on the ping list. As FreeRepublic is a political site, our politics and other issues will probably blend in…. There are many issues for horsemen that touch politics… land use, animal rights/abuse cases that make the news…. Legislation that might affect horse owners.
So... like the previous threads, this is intended as fun place to come and share stories, pictures, questions and chit-chat, unguided and unmoderated and that we come together here as friends. There are lots of ways of doing things and we all have our quirks, tricks and specialties that are neat to learn about.

New folk and occasional posters, jump right in and introduce yourselves, tell us about your horses, and post pictures if you've got them!
Ooooooh see the pretty horsies!! Hey, where's the pic of the old cowboys??
They are really growing:')
LOL - isn't that the truth.
You should see the rest of them:') It's uhs and ahs.
I have to admit, he's just getting some exercise out there in the round pen, no lunging yet at that age, just play.
Seriously. You are there, if they get into something. Mine are on their own after 5.
They will sleep good tonight won't they?
Play is good. He is so beautiful. Lacy probably a big girl now, huh?
The old cowboy...my hubby and his horse.
Have you got more recent one of all the babies? Would love to see them!
Did you bring in that sand/gravelly footing in your paddocks or is that the natural soil?
I tried to emphasize that, someone is always here or next door and the dogs get us up if there is any disturbance at night.
Oh, she is getting so big. She's almost as big as Tuffy and he's two months older. I'll have to get some new pictures of her for you.
What you see is just our natural soil (sand). I'll try to get out next week end and take some new pictures, everyone has grown so much and Josey looks just like her dad now.
That's a marvelous pic! You have done well :)
I'll post a pic of my handsome cowboy as soon as I can catch him unawares! He's one of those "hey don't take my picture" kind of guys - but he's really cute! It's good thing I'm married to him, or my husband would be jealous.
?
I like that footing... People pay good money to bring in sand like that for their arena :~D
Please do go take some new pics tomorrow! They've got to be starting to look like real horses by now :~D
How many babies this spring?
Get one of Ranger too:')
Yeah - I haven't started to hound you yet, but we like lots of pictures around here... if you're working with the colt and can snap some pictures that show what you did, we like that especially!
I put out the word tonight that I'm interested in free leasing Okie. Tomorrow I have to call the 4H director.
I hope you find someone good. Especially good if he stays at the same barn... in fact, you could make that a requirement, at least at first.
