Oof. My first thought was hyprmobility (sorry, kyboard having issus so no lttr aftr 'd' ;) and warmbloods ar crtainly brd to b hyprmobil. It's why I'd nvr considr on. I am hyprmobil and hav had chronic pain for most of my lif, starting around 13-14yo. I was undr th car of a spcialist for it and...

It could be allergy as someone suggested. Stress: I would recommend Pet Remedy Plug In, rather than Feliway (I've never had success with that one, either the original or 'Friends'/Optimum). Vet: get testing kit for urine as suggested, but also a short course of steroids might be the way...

If you want lightweight with pockets, this one looks good. https://www.runandbecome.com/item/Bodylite/Phone-Holder-Vest/8409?v=85bl&wmp=951&selected_colour=pink

Matrix bridle. If you get the full setup, you can play around with different actions, from hackamore to scawbrig and all in between.

In a nutshell, they get on my t*ts, big time. We have a couple round us that have 6 at a time and are mostly off lead. I had a run in with one last year as she had two massive German Shepherds that were out of control bounding towards me, to the point I leapt off. When she finally got them on...

Aw, sorry to read this. He was a magnificent beast, for sure.

My cob is very, very ploddy. He will occasionally have a moment, but his walk is painfully slow. He is heterozygous PSSM1, was tested age 7 after a year of really struggling to get him going, but has shown every symptom except a full tie up, but in hind sight he has had tie up symptoms (repeated...

I've had my Aigle Iso Parcours since at least 2017 and they show no signs of leaks or even cracking, despite me riding in them as well as yard chores in winter! I don't overheat and they're very comfortable. They do sometimes eat my socks, but that's my only gripe. I have icy cold feet so use...

I haven't started in mine, yet, but a fellow livery reports that Mole Valley Hi Fibre is drier than most. They deliver by the pallet, too. It's made by Country Haylage, so if there's a local stockist of that for you and you can't bulk buy, try that!

Another one I would love. I think Jerry T Berry needs a dental. Bracing myself for this (his appointment is tomorrow). A COHAT around here doesn't give much change from £700 if an extraction or two is involved.

Many years ago, I did actually request haylage as my Christmas present. I got it too. It may have been the same winter that I got a wheelbarrow for my birthday (February). I was chuffed with both. I hate receiving tat.

Second the Easyboots, either Cloud or RX2.

OH has 'donated' one of the transits he's doing up to store some of it. The rest will remain in shrinkwrap until the ground dries up enough to get a tipper across the field, or my truck (10 at a time). Haylage delivery was fine in the end, bar one pallet load falling back against OH's tractor...

I think it's about standard. All the bulbs are on schedule and birdies always get noisy in February. The corvids are all well into rearing chicks, but they always start early. I'm under no illusions. I expect a snowstorm any day now. Despite none being forecast round here. ;)

The hay bars have a small gap at the bottom, so water will run out.
