No one every talks about macroo toxins.
I have wormed, vaxed, trialled different feeds, additives, vitamin sups... the list goes on.

Micro toxins & macro toxins originate from fungi that get into the gut from wet grass, moldy hay etc.
Dunno bout your vet, i told all my vets and other people i know, even posted the black moldy lucerne that was thrown into the paddock, & no-one mentioned micro toxins ey.
It wasn't until i consulted a nutrition specialist that i was told about them.
I have used toxin binders before. They were for plant toxins. I tried these and it made no difference this time.
I am now aware of the differences in the toxins & can treat the problem.
Thanx to MITAVITE & EAC & other companies that have specialists and reps that are available to advise,
& Thanx to my local farmer with clean hay,
My horses are finally in better condition.
Also instantly changed their behaviour, they settled after the first feed from my hand.

Body condition of a horse is relevant to breed.
Also relevant to excercise levels as people are.
If you have a thoroughbred thats in work, you have a sleek, muscled body frame.
A thoroughbred in paddock condition will be wider and heavier.
A clydesdale will naturally be a wider, heavier set horse. Being more muscular in work and less toned in paddock condition.
A rocky mountain pony, welsh mountain pony or kentucky mountain pony will be sleeker built than icelandic or haflinger horse.
When people look at horses in paddocks, they judge it on what they are used to seeing.
If you are used to seeing a big stocky Clydesdale and look at an eguptian arabian, people would generally think the arab is underweight.
If you compare an icelandic horse with a welsh mountain in show condition it would be the same.
A thoroughbred that has a body shape of a clydesdale is well overweight.
Body score sheets are designed to assess body condition.
They do not have breeds in mind.
The body score sheet lists indicators such as hip bone, ribs, spine bone & leg proportion.
When comparing a body score sheet to a horse, you cannot compare a clyde to an arab or racing thoroughbred.
Clydes do not hve the same muscular formation as arabs or tbs.
They move differently, use different parts of their bodies to a tennesee walking horse or a rocky mountain horse.
Arabs have slimmer rib cages than a stock horse or haflinger.
Stock horses have a rounder body shape than a tb.
If you look at a shire horse and then a tenesee walking horse the body score comparison would be an 8 to 4.
Whereas if you look at a racing tb compared to an average paddock tb, body scores would be a 4 to 10.
Just something to think about for people who drive around looking at the local livestock.
Like Dorper & merino sheep/lamas & alpacas/mountain & alpine goats, horses vary greatly also.

I am completely frustrated with people who have been voicing their opinion when they have
no knowledge or experience with mistreated animals.
They call them unhandlable, rogues, dangerous.
When in reality, these animals are scared, often neurotic, and feeling beaten & battered.
The animals have no confidence in these people.
The prople have not earned the animals respect or trust.
The people just expect to get a gentle accepting response from an animal that has been taught that people are nasty, rough and scary.
My horse is prime example.
My appaloosa mare was not able to be approached when i first bouggt her. A few weeks later she was being haltered lead, & lunged. Liked by the previous owner by rhen also.
My stallion has had people beat him into submission, hog tie him, & try to euthanaise him.
All because the people dont know how to get a good response from him.
These people have no patience, respect, or undersranding of animal instincts or behaviours. Or they just dont care how their behaviours affects the animal.
It took me months for my horse to accept that i could be on the property without forcing it to do anything it did not want to.
Months more to get it to understand i was not going to hurt it.
Our understanding of each other grew over the years.
I can lunge, lead, halter, tie, float, and lead him down a road away from in season mares.
He has progressed from me having to use a long gig whip, then a rope, then a gentle non=contact hand movement, to get him to move away.
He is actually terrified of other people.
Natural animal instinct for him is to protect his herd, so when someone goes into his paddock he will try to chase them out.
He would avoid me when i had been riding another horse, & sometimes tried to get nasty. I smelt of that horse not of me. I learnt to have a shower in between the ride and attending my horses.
People who have no understanding call this dangerous behaviour & say he is unhandlable.
They do not accept its their lack of ability &/or fear that causes the problem.
Any horse can turn nasty.
Like my gentle quiet mare that bit me on the shoulder when i took too long to release her after the farrier finished her hooves. I was talking and she got impatient.
Or my gelding, when i touched his tender spot on his shoulder, he turned and tried to fake nip me. I say fake nip, because if he intended to harm me he would have done serious damage.
My stallion was hanging around me last week, while i was fixing the fencing. I literally had to push his gead out of the way, because he was being a sook and just wanted pats and attention.
Couple of days ago, a lady was sranding between myself and his fence and hurriedly moved away when she realised he was stanfing behind her with his ears back, shaking his head at her. He was telling her she was in the wrong place.
When i stood in the same place he behaved.
My point is.
Just because you do not have the ability to handle a horse, does not mean that horse has no future. It just means you have a choice to stay away from that animal, or expand your knowledge, experience and patiently work with that animal, or you move the animal on to someone who knows how to handle it.
You should never judge an animal on your abilities alone. As most people only have the ability to handle a quuet well trained horse.
Few have had to gain the knowledge needed to retrain an animal that has feared contact in any form.

Currently searching for a new safe place to keep my horses

2 years ago, i had my stallion on the float to go to Golden Plains Vet.
When there, he stood quietly in the open driveway waiting. We had geldings and mares being led past him, & he just behaved. After a while the vet gave him an injection to sedate so the problem could be fixed.
There were mares calling out to him & he still stood quietly.
Today, the vet comes out and he kicks out when she touches his neck, pulls back, carries on like a true nut brain.
It took me years of consistent training, gentle persuasion, & mega patience to get him to be an almost normal animal that did not hate being handled.
& people wonder why i get so upset about other people doing their own thing with my animals while i am not there & without my petmission ey.
They think its ok, because they think they know better than me. They think they have some right to take over & do as they please.
What They think is wrong.

I was out at the paddock today, waiting for the Veterinarian.
Little Miss got all excited today.
Got a case of the zoomies.
Running full speed in very large circles.
Then runs straight into the fence. Stops on the other side, with back leg hooked up, shakes free.
Then Mum just follows her straight through the fence. Gets back leg hooked up, shakes free & proceeds up the driveway.
For me it was a quick bolt to the car, grab a halter & bucket. With a quick signal to my stallion to stay inside the paddock. I Get the halter on the mare, & then lead her & th foal back to the main gate to get them back in.
So, now, the fence has extra star pickets halfway between the posts, electric line along the front, & the neighbours rotten post has been reinforced with a star picket, just in case.
2 hrs later, all done.
Lucky these two have only just been vaccinated last week ey.

05/04/2024

It is amazing to me, the extremes people will go to, to get a horse without paying the owner.
In the last month,
Water was made undrinkable.
Electric fencing has been turned off & cut.
Wire ringlock & straining wires have been cut.
Posts have been dropped to the ground.
The horses have been released from their paddock 6 times.
Why?
The only reason is to endanger their lives.
If they were neglected, the owner, being myself, would not be on the properyy within 15 minutes of being notifued ofproblems, & fuxing the issues on a daily basis.
Whoever is responsible, please STOP ENDANGERING MY HIRSES LIVES TO LINE YOUR OWN POCKETS.

The Biosecurity Legislation Amendment (Incident Response) Bill 2024, passed in Parliament this week is strengthening Victoria's biosecurity response system to ensure it is fit-for-purpose and can respond to ongoing and evolving threats from diseases, pests and weeds.

The legislation has set increased penalties for trespassing on agricultural premises, doubling them to up to $23,077 for an individual and $115,386 for an organisation.

Fines will also increase for not following biosecurity and traceability requirements during an emergency response, including for breaching movement restrictions under a Control Order, and for deliberately spreading an exotic disease.
