"Hungry like a horse"
Did you know horses graze all day long? Good quality hay is essential for horse care.
Why?
1) Short lush green grass can cause illnesses like lamanitis for some horses. Long, dried out hay is ideal for horses.
2) The constant chewing is calming for them. It is what they are meant to do.
3) Horses without access to forage can develop habits like cribbing (chewing on wood) which can damage their teeth.
4) Having hay constantly moving through their system decreases the risk of colic (stomach pain/blockages.) Colic can be deadly for a horse. Also, horses stomachs create acid 24/7. So if their stomachs sit empty the acid will eat at their stomach lining- causing ulcers.

The best place to pet a horse is their withers which is located where the mane ends on the back of the horse.
Why???
1) Horses will be able to see you when you stand where I am in the video. Horses have monocular vision- that means each eye is independent of each other. They have a blind spot directly in front of their face. When you pet them on the nose, the horse may not see you, which can cause them to react.
2) Horses groom each other on the withers. Starbuck is trying to groom me back- which means she is accepting me as part of her herd. Bonded horses do this for each other. 🥰

🎃👻 **Spooky Season is Here!** 👻🎃

It’s that time of year again—when the ponies get into the Halloween spirit! 🐴✨ Over the years, we’ve had some amazing costumes, from mystical pegasus 🦄 to ghostbusters ☠️ and even a demogorgon! Did you know most of our costumes are handmade by me and my daughter? Some recycled, some altered and some totally handmade from scratch!

We need costume ideas! What would you like to see the ponies dressed as this year????

Last year we had huge interest in beach rides and photos! Oct 31 starts pony beach season! Come enjoy some beach time without the crowd and support small local businesses for lunch! We truly appreciate Carolina Beach being pony friendly. We do all we can to respect the beach and hire poo scoopers and pick up trash as we walk the kids on the beach.

Goblin gives Fanta the evil eye. He said "look at Fanta.... over there eating all the food. Look at him! Little big back self has never missed a meal! 😒" #horsedrama #portcityminis #bigbackactivities

Fanta teaches the kids how to safely deposit treats into his mouth. It's his favorite lesson to teach. 🤣 #handflat #treatyoself #summerfun #fantathepony #portcityminis #spreadingjoy #firsttimehorseexperience

Karma lends a helping hand to Kiera. Karma knows how to open and close gates. She also knows how to flip the chain off so we have to make sure it's on there good! She does what she wants when she wants because she is the queen around here. #queenkarma #smarthorse #karma #portcityminis

My daughter finally placing in a jackpot after a year of hard work training this young 4 year old horse. She helps with the parties to fund her dreams! We appreciate your support so much! If your kids have dreams like this they can do it too! Start small! The horse industry is intimidating but you can do anything you put your mind to! #barrelracing #portcityminis #karma #karmathebarrelhorse #hardwork #motivation

He loves Kiera to bits. The one and only Trick or Treat is sleepy.

It's a cookie robbery mystery.... I wonder who could be behind such a crime? WHOEVER IT WAS ripped the whole bag open. Trick or Treat said he scared the robber away and he was trying to clean things up.😇 What a little hero 🥺 I feel bad for accusing him. 😭 If you have any tips call 1-800-PONY-CRIME-STOPPERS. #portcityminis #crime #crimestoppers #badboy #smoothcriminal #cookiemonster #trickortreattheminihorse

Such sadness in her eyes. 🥺 Her best friend Karma is at horse camp this week. Who wants to give her a hug and tell her it's gonna be ok??? #sadunicorn #starbuck #animalshavefeelingstoo #missingsomeone #thinkingofyou

How adorable is this? The little girl in yellow her grandma is a horse instructor. 🍎 doesn't fall far from 🌳 She is a great little teacher.
