This message is from: Joel Harman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Nit picky, however, we are de-worming. Unless there is pasture mgmt one can de-worm daily & not make any difference. Manure needs to be dealt with in pastures, stalls, whatever. Very nice if one can rotate pastures.
One needs to remember horses constantly re-infect themselves & total removal of parasites is almost as bad as a pandemic of parasites. ----------------------------- The plowing bee in Wilson Ck ,WA was fun even if it did rain sideways Sat nite. Not too many in the furrow on Sun. We mostly sat around in the shop, ate, & told lies to each other. Progress, there was another team of fjords there. A good time was had by all. ------------------------------------ I think the discussion on hoof quality is good but have a hard time believing any breeder will volunteer that their stallion passes on bad feet. So I'll say C-1389 passes on good feet, bone, head, etc. Toot! toot.! Want to buy him ? Why do I always refer to him by number? Hard to misspell a # when looking up a pedigree.
