Karen, having pet chickens and being an educator on a 13,ooomember chicken forum is pretty impresive . Do you have alot of cats?
Passin thru, it's 130,000 members. I don't care for cats. Being one of the educators-I mostly help new members with some sick chicken problems. Chickens may have no value to some, but to many, their kids benefit , and can show and raise them, and to others , they are very important to them. I also breed exotic chickens.
George I hope you don't think I'm pro soreing...I just don't want everyone to think just because one see that stuff on you tube or news that all twh folks are that way..
George,i don't see what you are trying to achieve keeping posts like this going? Everybody has gave their opinion and it is just what you are looking for.And not one of you people know anyrhing about it. My neighbor is a quarter horse person and went to the RENO gaited horse show and came home and determined it was animal abuse and directed it at me.Her father has been a farrier for 40yrs and is the king of the toe dubbers.Those peoples opinion don't even matter.Most people on any of these boards don't even know how to put a pad on right.These forums do not have expert farriers on here,men such as Earl Wilohelm who has more talent that many of you guys have witnessed first hand.Trying to find these horse abusers are like trying to find child molesters and you people who have nothing better to do that post crap like this for the bleeding hearts to read.But if you dedicate this problem as you do your union stuff and spend you own time and money researching it than asking people like Edited for stupid remark
Earl Wilohelm never heard of him ??????? forums do not have expert farriers on here. Well I'm certainly glade we don't have any X-spurts . An X is some useless lover ya got rid of & a spurt, well that's a drip under pressure. Got any Photos of Earl Wilohelm work so I can see for my self how Great he is suppose to be. Seen as his so great I've never heard of him. JPT you need to look up cruel in the dictionary & get some milk to replace what ever moonshine your putting in your coffee. Sounds to me like you have been shoeing TWH For years & your wanting that dirt to feel clean by justifying the cruelty .
Last time I seen Mike F ..he was on NatGeo channel on a show called preppers... They had him showing his fall out shelter and bug out bag...lol.. he had his own rain forest in his back yard make out of a swimming pool..while raising talopia fish for food... Said he was getting ready foe economic crash or something..
I didn't make the cut for that show. Wonder Why you would show the world your secret hideaways and food storage. Defeats the purpose, right?
Don't worry Karen, everything will be fine. I've probably pissed Mike off as much as George has, and he doesn't seem to hold a grudge. Also, I enjoy the back and forth he participates in. Regards
He's really not a bad guy imho.. I kinda enjoy his banter..but I tell you who we do need in this thread is Dan H..I'm still waiting on those pics he promised of the soreing he found while messing around with twh..
He's got an awful lot going on right now. He's got a big coke forge and a coupla anvils and a WCB stand for sale right now, if anyone's looking. I think he's in Indiana.
George, From conversations I have had with Mike, I know he doesn't shoe BLTWHs and is not pro-soring at all. Mike'c custom predominantly consists of American Saddlebreds and the like and many if not most of them are wearing a shoeing package, generally consisting of a toe weight shoe and pad package that will often include one or more wedges and one or more leather pads in front, and a variety of shoe styles(ie: square toed, heeled, weighted, etc) and stock dimensions often with one or more pads on the rear.
WHAT WAS MY POST DELETED FOR NOW ?????????????????????????????? . Must be time to move on . This forum is becoming to politicly correct & over controlled by the thought police. Now you cant even have a view on a product being sold just because someone is a Bible toting Jesus lover. The product his selling in my opinion is JUNK . If you want political correctness ? In my opinion Earl Wilohelm is an expert in making skilled Junk. May I be Dammed in hell for speaking my honest thoughts.
