I have a field ornament a-hole section A pony. He’s about 6 and I want him to do More than eat and poo as I want to eventually loan him to a child, once he learns that biting knee caps is unexceptable. I weigh around 9 and 1/2 stone so I won’t be breaking him in. How do you go about breaking...

Hi, I know Bracken ferns are poisonous to horses but recently our field that was being rested for the winter has been topped killing all the bracken that was high in one corner of the field. This part will be fenced off with electric fence when the horses go back into this field but just out...

Hi, We have 3 different liveries on the yard I keep my horse on and all the horses share a field. My problem is that one of the liveries won't worm their horses when myself and the other livery do. There's no way we can fence off the unwormed horses as our field is too large and the horses...

Oh that's good to hear, they sound very similar to my girl so they probably got splints for the same reason. Thank you for putting my mind at rest! :)

Hi, I have a 3 year old who has recently developed splints in both front legs. She has not had any work done with her other than walking (and only walking) out on 10 minute hacks with other horses to get her used to traffic when she was 2 and has been turned away for the winter. The...

Thanks guys, I definitely think it's bog burn now. Shall I still continue to wash off her legs, then dry them and keep her in a night?

Hi, i have a very hairy irish cob who lives out 24/7. Due to the rain we've had, the part of the field near the gate is very wet & muddy and therefore, my cob is very wet & muddy most of the time. I have noticed the bottom of her feathers have - what seems like - come off. The feathers on...

Thanks everyone! I got it done tonight and i couldn't be happier, my girl stood like a gem for the clipping and the brand (considering she's never seen clippers before as she's 2yo) thanks again for all your replies, it's very much appreciated :)

Oh i was so offended! Yeah i should have said that hahaha! I think i will be getting it done, screw what other people think, I'd rather have my baby safe! Thank you everyone :)

Yes, she is only black on her face and on her bum so i had no choice but to have it on there :)

Thank you, this is what i said! I just want to know my horse is protected and I'm being made out to be a cruel owner! I would be beyond devestated if my horse was stolen and couldn't be found. Atleast if she has a freezemark she's a little bit more protected and more likely to be found if she...

Hi, I am hoping to get my horse freezemarked this week due to seeing so many horses being stolen in the local area. I have been told that i shouldn't have it done because: -It doesnt deter thieves -it's cruel to have it done -I will never be able to show my horse again -it makes the horse...

Do you know what make they were? Thanks for your reply :)

Hi, I have been searching for a pair of long riding boots that aren't leather as they're needed for a Christmas present and leathers ones are out of the question ... I don't want rubber ones but the fake leather types are nice. The only ones i can find are the Saxon Equileather ones and...

She's not bitted but i do have a cavesson i could use instead. Thank you, i think I'll have to start long reining early (lightly though) :)
