Answer
Hello...

You mentioned you were getting a male and a female.  

If you are getting a stallion you need to have him gelded (neutered)...  as soon as possible!

I know nothing about "little" horses - your best source for this information should be the person you purchased them from.  

Since you don't RIDE little horses I'm not sure what you're going to do with them except let them be pets - so get with a local miniature horse association or the national association on the internet at www.amha.org -- I would think they have resources to assist you.

Good Luck
