I'n a big fan of balancers, most of mine are just fed ad lib hay, balancer and a small amount of chaff and look fantastic on it. I believe any horse should be on either a general purpose supplement or a balancer.
One thing to watch when deciding on a brand is the amount of protein in each...
Anyone got any ideas about feeders for the field kept horses?
Don't normally gave grass kept horses so I am a bit dumb on the subject. I have set a new field up with a new field shelter and want to know how to feed my haylage.
We feed mini hestons in the winter but then feed round hay in...
Another one for Martin brooks although I do believe he isn't taking on any new clients, however he does do regular clinics at different places so worth giving him a call
My hubby's got a go pro which we hijacked for a hunter trial once if you search you tube for "Carla and Archerfield" you should see footage, video quality is fantastic however we mounted on on the chest harness and the footage wasn't amazing, we've decided this season we'll try it on the hat...

They're seems to be loads of 5 1/2's about but not much smaller. I've borrowed one off a friend to try and she's been fantastic in it it's just that's a 5" and it's too big
A Myler comfort snaffle, low port with hooks, size 4 1/2 or 4 3/4 either eggbutt or full cheeks they want to sell me, was bidding on one on eBay and got pipped to the post at the very last second.
