    Field maintenance: knapweed, fat hen, dock and buttercup

    Hi all, I rent an almost 3acre plot but at present it's really getting me down... End of may I separated the field into two and had-sprayed one half whilst the horses grazed the other, then swapped (grazeon pro). What I CANNOT get on-top of however, is the dock, knapweed, fat hen and...

    Potential accidental covering, advice please?

    Thankyou. That’s a good idea!! That would actually fall inline to when my boy is due his second vaccs. So can speak to them then if no season. Totally, enough that’s troubling for all of us at the mo!!

    Haha :) needed that laugh!!! And she definitely is... sadly, she knows I’m a worrier & is the type to leech onto it!

    Potential accidental covering, advice please?

    My bad! I had my other half check them both over at the time and he says no marks on either. I’ve seen playful colts in the field attempt to mount their mommas and not even scuff marks on her from that kind of thing, he said. Certainly none by the time I was back up. Though she IS a Trollop...

    Potential accidental covering, advice please?

    As the title suggests, but hear me out... Bought a lovely strapping 8mo colt 3weeks ago. As perfect for me as he is, I’d no intention on breeding and have a mare (own small yard/field setup) so within 3days of him being home and settled in the stable, he was gelded. After the initial...

    Experienced towers - found a place to park trailer but uphill/downhill issue?

    Some of you may have caught my previous thread re's having nowhere suitable to park my little single horse trailer now I have a small plot of land of my own... I THINK I may now have found somewhere. Hard standing, clean, safe & secure. There is a glitch however -- I would need to reverse it...

    Trailer parking dilemma - any ideas!?

    Sure is!! Noone seems willing, inspite of my willingness to be respectful and pay. We have a farmer closeby whom we buy hay from, but even he isn't willing to have it on his place as he says it's 'junked up enough' :( j25/26 is becoming too far away, yeah... I work that way on and it's a good...

    Trailer parking dilemma - any ideas!?

    Phoned up the 6 yards in the locality (including the one you speak of) - batemans, and they say parking only for liveries or they don't have space.

    Trailer parking dilemma - any ideas!?

    Good shout on the scout etc thing. I've tried 4/5 caravan storage places DE55 locality, none have space. I know of the car storage place... Funny story. I phoned up for a quote on storing the trailer 'do you know what we do?' says the guy. Turns out, extra secure temp controlled units. I think...

    Trailer parking dilemma - any ideas!?

    Sadly not. Was the first thing we thought of. It's a strange setup and access is via a narrow ('only just' wide enough for my kia sorrento) lane which turns into a footpath (of footpath width) and opens up onto my field. Even hay deliveries are something to behold and involve drop offs at the...

    Trailer parking dilemma - any ideas!?

    So, I have a lovely little single/mare&foal cheval trailer. Having recently moved from a yard 9.5miles (and a 35minute drive) away, to my own (rented) field a 30second walk from my house; I am without a space to park it. I have contacted in excess of 20 people/yards/farmers/caravan...
