    Haylage

    My horses have all got diarrhea atm I think its probably because of the haylage I am feeding them (I have fed them haylage for months without a problem so I must just have a particularly rich bale) if I mix the haylage with a slice of wheat straw will this stop the diarrhea?? Thanks.

    Hard mouth, forward horse

    My mare is a big cob, she is very forward and gets very strong the problem is that she has got such a hard mouth. Sometimes she's not to bad and doesn't use her strength against me but other days she gets so strong and no amount of pulling can stop her. I dont want to have to constantly pull...
