Depends which way round the barn I go - ususlly about 30 steps :o) Have mine at home.

£80 for a set. Best farrier I have ever had.

OH: Shall we go away for the BH weekend? Me: Yes, as long as I can get someone to look after the horse OH: What, you have to do her on bank holidays too, can't you just leave her for 2 days with a load of hay in the stable? Me: "sighs"

Hello, sorry this probably has already been done! But looking for assisted DIY livery in and around the above areas, have tried Slough Farm and Ardbrook - Does anyone know of any other gems please?

She hardly gets fed carrots, hmm might try the Epsom salts!

She usually stands with out a rug for about 20 minutes, shes a very warm horse and fully clipped, then she has a med weight stable on.

Hello, A month ago my girl randomly over night came out in loads of little lumps all over her body, especially around her belly. Waited a week to see if they'd go down which they did a little, but then came back up again, vet called, agreed it could be some allergic reaction, steroid injection...

Thanks for all your advice, you have all been really helpful, .....trots off to local feed store....

Yes, just a basic Molly Chaff Orig

What sort of feed would you recommend? She's on Chaff and Competition mix at the moment...

Hello, My girl is suffering with mudfever worse then ever this Winter, so am curious as to what other people use to help prevent it? I keep the kegs clean and scab free and keep them as dry as I can, but this Winter its just not clearing up with the fields being so wet and muddy, stupid...

Thank you, Think I'm going to get some and give them a try, girls suffering with this wet weather so need to try somehting!

Just a question really, has anyone used them? do they work to keep mud fever at bay? What about turning out all day in them?

I havent tried those particular ones, but I got some similar from Amazon for around £100 - they were totally rubbish, tried to do a full clip and had to end up using a friends pair to finish. I splashed out on the Heiniger Progress clippers in the end - These are amazing!

I just bought some Heiniger Handy clippers - They are amazing!! They were a £245 and came next day direct from Heiniger, but they really are the best I have ever used. Gave my hairy cob a full clip last night and they did the job perfectly, body, legs the lot!
