Wondering About Minis September 5, 2019 10:18 AM

I was watching my mini gelding lunge yesterday and realized how beautiful he is. So well put together, and with his attitude my neighbor thinks he was purposefully gelded late by whoever owned him last.

Now I'm super tempted to have a mini horse breeding farm xD It'd have to be a side project for my actual equine goals but oooooh gosh I want to.

I've had two minis so far but currently own one. For a while I thought they were useless but I realized they could do a lot of things like in hand jumping, little kid rides, liberty, showmanship, blah blah blah. So here's question one, does anyone know if there are mini horse friendly competitions in Washington? How big is that "market"?

Here's another question (the important one), what do you look for conformation-wise in minis? My boy has a solid neck, even legs, round bum, a good topline, a slightly curvy but petite head, and a nice "strong" shoulder. To me he looks like the perfect mini, but I'm in no way experienced in breeding them. So, tell me, what are the things needed in minis besides a "functional" conformation?

Are birth complication/death rates higher in mini mares since they're smaller? Are there things that should be done differently if assisting in birth?

What are good mini registries? Are there any requirements that I should try to fit when finding a mare/stud to buy/breed?

I'll probably come up with other questions later but this is what I'm thinking about at the moment. Answers to any of these would be great! Even though its just feeding my dumb dream... Hehe.

I do know some of the mini regerstire are AHMA and AMHR I also think under 35 inches.

Confirmation wise minis should look like small Arabians they are built just like them!

minis arent a type of pony, they have the conformation of a horse, not the one of a pony and so that makes them a type of horse, not a pony.

that is something i know about them.

also is it an american miniature horse, or a shetland?

I would speak with your vet about your questions, and get your gelding involved with the local mini community so that you can get a feel for what it's like before expanding.

I don't think the market is super great right now for any breed of horse. If you're looking to make a profit off horses, breeding isn't the way to do it.

I don't mean market for selling, I mean "market" as in are there a decent amount of mini-friendly shows with profits for winners?

I don't know about the market but a mini has to be under 38 inches to show as a mini. When at shows what most judges are looking for is this:

Honestly, instead of breeding them you should look for more at a reputable rescue or something there are plenty of them out there that need a home i'm sure. Not to mention all of the health problems minis tend to have, weather you own them, breed them or get them from a rescue... funds to care for them and the time to spend with them ( not just for training).

If I wanted a rescue it wouldn't be a mini. Plenty of people want minis and will take one in need like that. If I was to do anything with minis, which I likely won't but am currently considering, it would be breeding and showing.
