  • Horse losing weight, what supplement should I get?

    I have a Morab mare who has never had trouble keeping weight on before. She is going to be 31 this fall so she's a senior. She gets unlimited second crop hay, gets fed a mix of sweet feed, senior feed, and beet pulp daily (about 3-5lbs a day) and has been wormed. I'm thinking about adding a fat supplement, because I've heard that could help. She is healthy otherwise, she hasn't lost any of her energy and is eating well. Any suggestions?

  • Why do people always assume when they read..?

    Why is it when someone picks up a book, usually a nonfiction or a classic, they assume that the author has some hidden meaning behind what they are writing? Or some lesson they are trying to teach? Couldn't it just be the author doesn't have some ulterior motive and its just us as people making connections? What a reader gets out of writing isn't necessarily what the author was trying to say, or what the author intended to have happen. Right?

  • metaphors?

    Coral is far more red than her lips' red

    If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head

    If snow be white ,why then her breasts are dun

  • Phobia? of needles?

    I have a severe fear of needles. I would really like to find away to get this fear lessened if not totally gone!! I know a lot of people say that just getting poked enough will help, but the truth of the matter is that it doesn't lessen my fear. I have had probably many more needles than most adults. My mother says I had a really bad experience when I was a baby and that it might be hereditary, since my dad is just as bad as me. :)

    But I am applying for a job (I am 16) but I live in a small town and really there isn't much here to do. I am also saving up to go on the 3 week German trip this summer with the German Club.

    The job I have choosen is in nursing, and in order to get the job I need to get a Tb test and a Hepatitis shot as well. As much as people have assured me that a tb test doesn't hurt, I get scared even thinking about it.

    If any of you know what I am going through please send some tips on how you deal!!

    Thanks!

  • Protective spells?

    My mother is taking part in an exorcism on Thursday, she will be with 3 other women, but I am worried for her. Since I found out that if something goes wrong in the process the spirit can piggy back you home and get into another persons body. I am even more worried because this is an extremely old and violent spirit. My mother will be in the background helping out but not front and center. But I want to know some spells or things I can do around the house and family that will make sure if she does bring the spirit home it can't get in us or our house. The only thing I know of is sea salt, but that doesn't stop them completely.

    Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

  • Y does my horse always trip?

    I have a 24 year old morab and when I ride her she is always tripping. She has been shod lately and there is nothing health wise wrong with her. So I am starting to get worried, I realize that if the rider is not balanced the horse can trip, but according to our trainer we are balanced. She seems to do it more when we are going at a walk then when we are at any other speed. So I was wondering if it could be because she doesn't pay as much attention to where she is going at a walk?

    Any help would be appreciated.

  • Surgery, I am sooo Nervous, any tips?

    I am having surgery on my mouth tomorrow. I am 15 years old, and have a severe fear of , doctors, needles, and dentists. :( I am scared out of my wits. And my grampa keeps talking about it and saying how I could die and stuff. He knows how I feel but he won't stop. I need some coping tips. They are going to give me some relaxation drugs when I get there at 5 am tomorrow, but I am afraid they will be like the last ones and they won't do a thing for me.!!

    I feel so nervous, like I am going to throw up! And I have been trying not to think about it but it seems everytime I turn on the radio or tv there always seems to be something about a doctor or hospital on there. I basically need some comfort!!

  • Blind horse?

    Hi, this question is really for the horse trainer or expert. Please no stupid or mean answers.

    I am getting a blind horse, I went to meet him and everything went good. He was well mannered, well just a little ansty since it was supper time. But he let me touch him all over and the girl (12 yrs old) picked up his feet and like I said was really good.

    My question is, is there any way to introduce him to his new surroundings and training with the least bit of trouble on my part and the least amount of stress on his? He is broke, but needs another horse to lead for him to feel comfortable, you can also ride him with someone leading him and he does fine.

    My goal is to get him to be able to get him to the point where he trusts me enough and will go on the trails and everything without guidance from an additional horse or human.

    I am not really training savvy but I am willing to give it a shot and I think I will be successful.

    Please no one say get a trainer.
