So after all the talk about wormers what do you think is the best route for me to go down? I'm not in a rush to move from the current yard and there are a few other livery yards in the area that I can look into to move to instead. Also how long does the Equest Pramox stay in the system of the...

Thank you, thanks the reason I don't want to do it there is a very rare chance he can have full on worms in a week. I will phone my Vets tomorrow.

That's the plan but it's a yard policy to be wormed on day of arrival.. I've already spoken with the YO and they still want me to worm him again as it "won't harm him", They are all on a set program which is a egg count program but I'm not sure if they still worm if not needed which I will have...

Hi there I just had an egg count done for my horse and it came back good as expected, I gave him an Equest Pramox as egg counts cant trace tape or encysted red worm. I've always managed my horses worming and I like to do it myself as I detest chucking a wormer down their throat for the sake...

That's scary, that should not be allowed.

You can test out bits by ordering a few and paying to trial them for a week, I think Saddles Direct still do it? There is a defiantly other websites that offer this service, I agree some bits are very expensive but I've never bought an expensive bit that's failed me yet. What NS bit is it that...

Hi there, I've never used an NS copy before, I have a few NS bits and they are a game changer. Is there any reviews on the copies on the website?

Hm that is quite strange, Is it as soon as you get on him this happens? Maybe if your riding 10/15 minutes the saddle slips back and hits an unpleasant spot on his back? Just an example. How old is the horse? X

If the horse is uncomfortable when riding bronking is quite understandable. The horse might be in quite a bit of pain, not saying this is the reason why but it is understandable. What do you do whilst he is bronknig? Does he just stop on his own? If it's a badly fitting saddle might be worth...

Stubben also do really nice stirrup leathers, If your still looking I have a second hand pair for sale.

Hello, Do you still have space at your yard? Where about are you?

Lovely dog :-)

Great news, Good luck.

That's the same as what my boy had except they were a lot smaller and more in groups and some had heads to them. The odd one would be itchy but never unbearable. I gave him a steroid and that cleared them up, just be careful if your horse is prone to laminitis with the steroid. My boy still gets...

Hey, I would definitely try some no stirrup work, helps a lot to stabilise your lower legs and put you in a better seating position.
