Yes I've got a Mattes which is great (but spendy) and was looking for a new cover for it when I spotted this one. I've actually now gone back and bought the last one - couldn't help myself lol and for only £20 am considering it as a Christmas present to myself x
If anyone is sfter a 75cm sheepskin girth (think it's a lammafell) I've just got one for £18 new plus pp from ebay.
There's only one left now. Type in Merauno and its the first thing that comes up.
It's a real bargain x
Think it's just the reality of horse owning in the winter .it'll prob get easier as you get more used to it (or not lol). At least you'll have the school holidays to catch up abit.
Good luck x
Can't get my head round there being a hay shortage and everyone saying get haylage instead - surely the same applies - and then presumably there will be a haylage shortage too x
You could try a haynet with the largest holes you can get. Perhaps he finds it it too difficult with the tiny holes and if hes not a greedy type may just give up x
