You're not being rude, and neither was i trying to be. Im not that arrogant, rude or ignorant to 'poo poo' peoples' opinions and what they have to say, otherwise i wouldn't have made the thread in the first place. I just would have liked to have seen some form of study, etc... that is all, not...

The reason i say this is because i have had a lot of involvement with Cleveland Bays recently, and i have to say, the ones who have been gelded later in life, seem to have a lot more size, and substance about them, in comparison to the ones that have been gelded at a younger age. Their bone...

As above, a 11 year old gelding Thoroughbred. He wont be staying in for the 3 weeks, he will be out in the yard with the Shetland Pony on a night, and in during the day, or in at night, out during the day.

Yes!!! I always thought that the 'entire' thing, helped with their growth too, so i too would be interested in seeing some links, evidence and studies though rather than a few people's opinions, if you have any information. Thank you.

Apologies - i should have said, he is only going to be there for 3-4 weeks as my yard is being concreted at the moment and with one thing or another, he will be staying there for 3-4 weeks, that is all. When he comes back to where i keep my horses, he will be kept with a 11 year old gelding, no...

Hi - thanks for the reply. I am keeping him entire - as is breeding is excellent and i also feel it will influence the growth of him up until a 3-4 year old. I may geld him when he is a 4 year old but obviously, that is in the future. He has 3 mares keeping him company - An 11 year old QH A...

Hi everyone. I have just bought a 8-9 month old foal, and it is the first 'youngster' that i have had, so i want to do everything right, give him the best upbringing possible, and to make sure that he is handled well, respects people, can be caught, etc... So, with that in mind, i would...

Hi, does anyone know of anyone or company that is selling oat straw in the Sleaford area of Lincolnshire. Many thanks. Gaz.

Waves! Im 'horsey' and also straight :)

Thanks everyone for the feedback and views, much appreciated.

Hi everyone. Following on from my previous post about what people thought about that horse. In order to keep my options open in regards to a horse, i want to travel about and find some studs/breeders with youngstock who breed big horses that can carry weight. Im not interest really in...

Thanks for the feedback and opinions. Id rather not haggle on a horse that has a problem, id rather just leave it to be honest. No point in buying a horse with a potential problem, just because it is a bartering tool so to speak.

I do have experienced people around me so im lucky in that respect. If it helps - he isnt up to weight and is a bit ribby so his spine might be showing a bit more than usual, as he has no topline, etc... Also he is stood on a hill as thats where their grazing is.

Thank you for the welcome. They are asking £1500 for him.

Hi everyone im new here - this horse is one that i may be buying. I have seen him twice and really like him. He is around 16hh and 2-3 years old. However, someone on another forum said that they think his back is roached. I thought id get some opinions on this forum as you can never have...
