No. They are differnet breeds. Falabella are from Austria and Miniatures are from everywhere. I don't know how Miniaures came to be.

we need the answer not to answer it thank you!

No

Miniature isa horse BREED its probably the smalllest horse breed

gestation is when a mare (girl horse) is pregent and careieing a baby foal

First of all horses and ponies don't have their manes cut they have them pulled. And yes they do have them pulled but most owners just leave them put for extra cuteness. :)

if you are showing in 4h/open/or just have it for a pet you just leave the mane natural- personally i have never seem a mini's mane pulled

When it reaches puberty

no

Gulliver's Travels by Jonathan Swift includes these descriptions.

yes but make sure it cant go through the wires and should be at least 1 acre i believe

Of course. But probably not inside city limits. You need to check with the city and county code agency first. Although Mini's are smaller than some breeds of dogs, they are a horse. And horses have different rules and in most places are considered a farm animal. If you have neighbors that are close you may save yourself a lot of trouble and find out their views on horsekeeping. There are people that can get cranky if they have an increase in flies, manure and/or smell. To a horse lover nothing smells better than anything horse. But not everybody feels that way.

Young mares with uncomplicated births (single foal, normal presentation of foal, no difficulties expelling foal or placenta, no signs of infection) can potentially be bred on foal heat, which can begin as early as 6 days post foaling. Breeding on the foal heat is usually only successful if the mare ovulates 10 days or longer after foaling. This period gives the uterus time to "clean" and involute (return to normal size). Older mares who have had a number of foals (multiparous) require more work to get in foal during foal heat and are often bred on the first full heat which can begin as early as 26 days post foaling.

A single miniature horse can usually pull one or two fully grown adults in a cart by itself. Any more than that and you should add another mini to help.

they are called pony's be sure to recommend a trust point

They don't have to if they're not being used to pull carts on rough or hard surfaces like roads. If they're out in a pasture all the time and not being used extensively, then no they don't have to.

Mini's are quite hardy and only need a basic run in shed and a turnout area. The run in shed should be at least 12' x 12' though, just incase you wind up getting a bigger horse at some point. And a basic 32' wide by 100' long drylot turnout will do. Of course with the drylot system you'll have to provide hay 24/7.

300-700 pounds I would say. Our 8 hand mini weighs round 500 Ibs

No they are not, Miniature horses are a man made type of horse and do not reproduce in the wild. The Shetland pony however does breed/live in the wild and is just slightly bigger than a mini, but far stronger and much more sound.
