Do you think that Victoria will cheat on J.T when she gets trapped with Billy in the snow Storm?
She already cheated on him with deacon. What makes you think she’s not going to do that when she gets trapped with Billy. I really feel sorry for JT when he finds out. But then again you can’t blame Victoria. She’s a Newman and all of the Newman’s have cheated. Now the only "perfect couple" that’s in the picture is Micheal and Lauren and now they are having some problems. But do you think that she is going to cheat on him or not?


I predict that she will get together with Billy, but I’m not sure it will be during the snowstorm. But I think they will get closer to each other. I also think that Mac and JT will continue to get closer.
I found a couple of spoilers.
Billy and Victoria are stranded together in an airport and go to the bar, where they discuss the Adam article in Restless Style.
Back in Genoa City, JT spends time playing board games with Mac.
When Victoria comes home, she and JT argue over Tucker McCall and she winds up with Billy again!
Cheetah | Feb 06, 2010


She really is acting bitchy according to the script so probably will cheat just to get JT upset.
Redhead | Feb 06, 2010


Of course she will , and she will use the excuse that Jt is getting close to Mac!
lorie v | Feb 06, 2010


Yes; she will. I never liked her and JT together. I think JT looks better with Mackenzie; those two have a lot more in common and they get along better.
amare | Feb 06, 2010


Of Course! She’s a Newman so what ever she does in the long run really doesn’t matter! It’s always someone else’s fault if you are a Newman.
sallyfaye | Feb 06, 2010


Yeah, and here l was thinking she was a Hellstrom! I think Victoria will do whatever the script says.
jus jaz | Feb 06, 2010


She may eventually and J. T. may end up with Mac ! I hope Billy and Heather kick it for awhile longer . By the way – all the Newman’s have been cheated on also ! There are no perfect couples b/c there are no perfect characters – plus they all have a past that creeps in to present or lurks around the corner for future entrance ! ppl watch for the drama of it all – even the Walton’s & Little House on the Prairie had issues – lol ! Writers have to shake it up a bit once in awhile – right !

I don't remember the name of this movie! Help please?
ahh it’s going to bug me if i don’t get this!
basically what i remember about it is:

There is this high school girl who keeps a diary, where she talks about what happens in her daily life. she talks about all sorts of people, the bullies, the mean girls, (almost everyone in her highschool) etc.. but she creates characters/fake names for them in her diary.
one of her entries accidentally gets published in a creative writing competition, and she ends up winning it. Her entry gets famous, and she publishes more entries, and creates a book.
she goes on interviews and things.
then someone from the highschool points out that it’s all based on stories about them..and that she’s mocking them/putting them in a negative light….
they don’t like her very much anymore…

that’s about as much as i remember. gahh i really want to know
so if anyone you know pleaseee tell me! thank you!

Weaning time, what to do?
I got my mare as a graduation gift last year. When my mother went to get her she had a 15 month old colt on her. Two weeks after I got her she ended up getting pregnant because a stallion busted down his stall door… the only stallion that never breaks out. -.-

Anyways she now has a 4 month old colt with her. I rode her a lot but now im stuck to only riding in the arena for short periods of time and if I try to ride her in a pasture with baby, even in their own paddock she huffs and puffs. I also of course have to ride by myself when Im used to riding with friends.

Ive heard of people weaning at 3 months and some waiting as long as 12 months. I was thinking 6 months but he only goes to his momma when he needs a drink or gets scared. Actually Saturday he just walked away from her and she was screaming and I found him behind a bounce house just grazing away.

I don’t want to stress momma out more than necessary since she is used to having her foals with her longer, but I will not wait passed 6 months to wean since she is my only riding horse.

He does have a playmate and 2 other younger foals in his field so I was thinking about putting them in side by side stalls (Mom and baby) and start taking mom out to ride separately or placing her on the hot-walker. Then everyday moving her down one stall and once we reach the end of the barn taking her outside in to the big pasture and waiting a week before turning him back out in to his old pasture with his buddies. Im scared he will try to run through a fence if I cold turkey him since they don’t have the best fences where Im at. The mare will not go through a fence.

Is 4 months ok for weaning? Should I leave him on longer? Any health issues I should worry about for foal? Mare will be exercised everyday. Anything extra I should know?

I have mare and foal on Omelene #300 right now but will switch to #200 when foal reaches 12 months or 700lbs Mare will be placed on #200 once foal is completely weaned. Some guy told me Safe Choice would be a good feed but Omelene just sounds so much better, I’ve just gotten it so I cant say how it works. Mare is a hard keeper so…yeah.

Any ideas for weaning would be great. Any help on anything else would also be great!!
Also I don’t have a problem with waiting until he is older but If he doesn’t need her anymore then I don’t see the point in waiting. I could wean them and then turn them back out together once she is dry just like you said. They would still be together for company and you know life lessons that only a horse can teach a foal.

As for Huffing and Puffing I meant that when he are riding in familiar paddocks where the baby has been its whole life she will walk and trot only so far then she will try to turn around if I stop her. She doesn’t call or anything but she starts to dance around. In the arena though she is completely fine and will do whatever I ask of her and will ignore the colt. She is in perfect health and before she foaled she was in EXCELLENT shape. I was even thinking of entering her in endurance rides. Now she is still in good shape though she has lost some muscling since she hasn’t been worked as hard.
EDIT:
Forgot, Wouldn’t it stress the baby out more to have mom come back and forth everyday so that you are technically weaning him everyday? I know that weaning foals in a group makes everything worse, so I was curious.
EDIT:
Is there scientific proof that weaning at 4 months causes health issues in a healthy foal with no other issues?

Right now Im starting to feed them seperately and take him out to groom him with momma, and I placed him in the arena while i lunged her in the round pen. Mom only cares if she is stuck in the stall otherwise she barely makes a sound.

He has been seen mounting other foals particularly a filly he likes. And unfortunately there are no foals that are his age that I can put him with since the only other one is a filly. There are two younger ones also a mixed pair but they are only 2-3 months of age.


I know some people wean at 4 months but I believe that to be too young. 6 months is more the norm. I would put him in a small pen with a buddy and ride the mare for an hour or two. Once it is time to wean you can put them in separate fields but make sure he is with familiar friends. I know some folks who have had to remove the mare from the farm for a few weeks.

I would not wean a foal before six months. It is not his fault he is ruining your riding time. As for how to wean, you will get a hundred different ways and opinions on how to do it. What you have written sounds ok to me. At 4 months he can do without Mom for an hour or so, as long as he is with other buddies. That should give you enough time to ride and return Mom to him to nurse. Take Mom away for a while every day whether or not you ride, as Mom sounds like she needs a slow adjustment as well. Gradually over the next 2 months, increase the time apart whether or not you are riding. Get up to having them separated all day, and put them together at night. During this separation time, if you are not riding Mom, do some groundwork with the baby. He has things to learn as well.

Remember that reducing your mare’s feed is crucial to helping her dry up during this weaning process. I’m not a big fan of sweet feed, but it’s your choice, just remember to reduce her gradually, and don’t overfeed the foal or he may have joint problems (epiphysitis). I personally feed Purina’s Evolution line of feeds because it has a lower level of starch and sugars.

Once the foal is 6+ months, you can judge for yourself whether or not to do a total separation even at night.

I weaned my mare’s last filly at 9 months. She is my only riding horse as well, but when she is pregnant or has a foal at foot, I deal with it until the baby grows up some. I weaned her first baby at 6 months because it was a colt and he began to try and mount her, so off he went cold turkey. He had epiphysitis from over-feeding, so that’s where that warning came from. He recovered thankfully, and remained sound.

The filly I weaned at 9 months I did it cold turkey all day (only because she was 9 months, not 4), and let them together for 2 hours only before nightfall for a week. Mostly to ensure Mom didn’t have too many problems with mastitis or anything. Then I separated them totally for about 6 weeks til Mom was dry. The filly only had a mini gelding for company. Then I let them back together. She did try to nurse, but by then Mom was dried up and was having none of that, lol. She is now just turned a year old and all of them are still together with no problems. She will still bump Mom’s flank for comfort sometimes, but she is not suckling. I have taken Mom out for all-day rides, and the filly calls til we are out of sight, then goes back to her grazing. Mom doesn’t call back anymore. When she hears us approaching home, she will start calling again til she sees us. I am keeping this filly, and it’s my mare’s last baby, no more.

This is just what I have done, and read up on, and my experiences. I am by no means an expert or a professional breeder. My mare’s first baby was an unknown surprise. When the babies were young, I took them with us on trail rides, as they stuck close to Mom, but as they grew up and got to wandering, they stayed at home while we went out, but I just made sure I wasn’t gone too long. They dealt with it just fine. I was able to still ride with others because I only have my own horses and they all are good to the baby, cause they are all together and Mom is boss mare of the herd so she makes them all tow the line!

I am not sure what you meant by your mare huffs and puffs when you try to ride when the baby is around? Is she talking to the baby, or struggling to breathe? If she is doing it in the arena as well, she’s either really out of shape or not healthy and should be checked out. If she is just talking to the baby, I wouldn’t worry about it. Let her huff and puff.

Good luck!

Four months of age is too young to wean- they don’t even wean racehorse babies that young, and you need to be aware of this. I would wait another couple of months before you take your colt away from his mom, unless he starts to show signs of puberty and starts trying to do things like mount her. If that happens, then he needs to be off her as quickly as possible. As far as weaning itself goes, the best way to handle it is to do what they do on the big racehorse breeding farms in places like Kentucky, and either send the mare or the colt away for a while. You need to make the seperation as abrupt, complete, and as final as possible- it’s far less traumatic for both mom and baby that way. Then once the baby is off the mare, you’ll need to cut her feed way back to stop the milk production. Once you can no longer milk her out and get anything from her udder, you can let her go back to her regular rations. As for the colt, he needs to continue getting the Omolene, because it has the protein and nutrients he needs to grow properly.He also needs to be handled daily, and this means he needs leading lessons and to be taught to stand for grooming, for the farrier, and for the vet. As he approaches his first birthday, he needs to be introduced to a bridle- it’s much easier to handle a yearling who is bridled than it is to deal with one in a halter. Puberty should occur when the colt is 8 to 10 months old- and once he goes by his first birthday,you are going to need to make a decision about whether or not to geld him. I also need to remind you that many colts become fertile before the age of a year, so turning this one back out with his mom is not a smart idea unless you want to have an unplanned incestuous foal next spring or summer. It wouldn’t be so bad if the foal was a filly, but since he isn’t, you need to think of these things.

I think that in your case, if you leave the colt with his friends and send his mom off to the trainer’s for a while ( at least until she’s fully dry) then that will solve the weaning problem. Being at home in familiar surroundings will mean that the colt is less apt to panic when he discovers his mom is no longer around- and having his friends around will give him something else to think about besides his own misery. Once the mare has dried up and is back in full work, you can bring her home- but be smart and DON’T put her back out in the same field with the foals, or you will have to go through this all over again !!

Good luck- I hope this helps.

Deffinitly leave him on the mare for another month and a half to two months. Weaning at longer than six months can cause behavioral problems and less than five can cause later health problems.
I wouldn’t put him in the stall next to his mother because then he won’t wean. Also, too much moving will be too much for the mom. Usually mother’s have more trouble with weaning than foals anyway. Place the mare beside one of her friends and the foal beside one of his play mates. To solve the fence problem, don’t put the foal out for a few days typically five is what the barn where I work does. This way he is comfortable with his friends and being alone. He will probably bond with whatever horses you put next to him. I recommend finding another foal ready to wean about the same time as him.
I’m sure you probably know the drill for helping reduce a mare’s milk but reduce the mare’s feed but not to the point where she begins to drop weight. This will take som adjusting and I would also suggest not switching her diet too much. Slowly reduce it a bit everyday until you reach what you fed her before you knew she was pregnant then bring her up depending on how she’s holding her weight. Typically our mares get about five pounds of 12% protein food twice a day but it will depend on what diet you have on your mare. Feed is especially difficult to regulate if your horse is a hard keeper.
Feed for the colt will be difficult to figure out for the first couple weeks after weaning. I usually play it by eye. I add some feed if the horse is ribby and subtract some if the horse looks too fat. It is actually better for a young horse’s growth if they are slightly lean because it puts less pressure on their joints in their legs. Just make sure he doesn’t get too thin. Most of our foals you can feel the ribs by pressing gently on their sides but you can’t see them. Watch out for turning hooves.

Again don’t worry about the fence thing. Chances are that won’t happen. we’ve had 13 foals in the last three years and none of them have gone through after weaning.

do you like the cena vs sheamus for TLC PPV?
i am so glad that cena is facing a young, non-main event wrestler at this next ppv. maybe wwe is finally finding out that they need to produce young stars for raw. at least on smackdown the wwe did a good job this year with putting the world belts on other guys like cm punk and jeff hardy.

i think its very refreshing for sheamus to at least feud with cena for one month. i looked back on the wwe title picture this past year and the majority of the wwe champions and challengers only consisted of hhh, orton, cena, edge. they need new contenders.

do you like this match: cena vs sheamus?


yes now Cena can show sheamus what ever he has done to the superstars
Moaz | Nov 24, 2009


Personally I Dont Like It. Rather Have Like Mvp Or Ted Dibiase Jr.
Anthony B | Nov 24, 2009


It should be a knoickdown drag down fight. It will be a very physical match and maybe this feud can carry into the Royal Rumble and beyond.
Julius C | Nov 24, 2009


Sheamus? What? Who? What has the Celtic Clown done to deserve being in a pay per view main event? Nothing.
Steve | Nov 24, 2009


I like the new blood in the title hunt, but so many of the other 14 non-champions in the qualifiers should have had a shot over Sheamus

MVP: former US champ,

Kofi: former IC champ,

Truth: former TNA champ

not only do thses thre have a title history and get huge pops, but they’ve also bee in WWE far longer than Sheamus,

so yes new blood is great, but not so new that the guy isn’t ready for it, either as a performer or as a person.
TJanssen411 | Nov 24, 2009


No I hate the concept of this match. Cena vs Sheamus? That is not a money maker (Vince loves money makers) and Sheamus has done nothing to deserve a title shot. He has been with the company for 2 or 3 months and he already gets a title shot for beating up jobbers?

I think I know of someone who REALLY deserves a title shot. He is an African American, has braids, former 2 time U.S. Champ and the longest reining in WWE history at that, can cut a hell of a promo, and former WWE Tag Champion. He goes by the name of MVP who, unlike Sheamus, has made a name for himself. Now if MVP were to got a title shot, that would have been………… BALLIN!!!!
Straight Edge Enigma~ Ballin!!!! | Nov 24, 2009


NO!
Emme. Esse. | Nov 24, 2009


Hopefully with this move Sheamus can kick the title off of Superman’s waist
Eric | Nov 24, 2009


yes but they are gona due 1 of 2 pushes

there is the Vladimir Koslov push.

Which resulted in a? horreeeeeeendous Survivor Series 08 match that sent him to ECW.

or there is the Brock Lesnar push.

u no new guy trashes every 1 who gets in his way wins the belt early holds it 4 a while loses it a a guy who was in a bad way 2 turn in to main event type of deal
Jack | Nov 24, 2009


No, I wanted truth, MVP, Mark henry or a person from legacy to win but I am happy that fag randy didn’t win it if it was a randy and sheamus for a #1 contender match and sheamus I would be happy.
