Thanks to everyone for your thoughts and I'm glad someone has taste-tested! I will see what my vets are proposing as an alternative and how it compares cost-wise. As my horse normally eats anything except wormer (and loves turmeric), I expect he'd cope with the change.
I am aware of the...
My vets have warned me of a huge hike in the price of Danilon as of July - due to manufacturing costs - and suggested some options for mitigating that increase. Among their suggestions is to use a less palatable alternative. I was just wondering what other long term users found to be the best...
I was chucking some Danilom at the feed recently and breathed in through my mouth at the same time....... there was an overwhelming orangey taste on my tongue!

Can't say I blame him - it's been miserable lately and my two don't want to be out on their sodden paddock fo long.

I bought one recently (i.e within the last month) for my (broad) Welshie. I find it true to size and it has so far withstood mutual grooming with his buddy. Despite the heatwave, he hasn't got over-warm (unlike in his Premier Equine).
I too found the Mio much too flimsy.
So far so good.
While I cannot guarantee that such an enterprise could be successful (as that depends on any number of variables), I would say that there could be plenty of potential customers within the Gloucestershire area. Yes, there are a number of good saddlers in the location. No, they don't always have a...
I know of a couple of livery possibilities but, again, a little further afield. Both in Ashleworth - Sally Thorndale (07501 272020) and Hannah Fenech (01452 700604). Both have outdoor schools and the local hacking is good. There is also Great House Livery, Hasfield - same area (01452 780206).
