I never thought about that! that might be it you know! This occurred last time when they were both heavily in season. The electric fencing likely wouldn't work, the 'bullied one scaled a 4ft+ proper fence last time. I think I will look into hormonal supplements to feed over summer. I feel...

Do you have good experiences with hormone supplements? If so any idea which ones are best? There is no trigger I can think of, its not a massive field but there is plenty of good grass still and non of them appear hungry at all. It only occurs every few months and at all other times they...

Went out early hours to find one of my mares slightly lame and covered in swollen hoof prints and scrapes, there's at least 6 hoof marks. I've given her a dose of bute and put cream on the scrapes which aren't in any way deep, it's more just the hairs been taken off. I know its my other big...

Sorry I've only just seen your reply ! Thank you so very very much!!

Anyone? :(

I'm in need of an extra wide gfs genesis gullet plate but can not find one of them for sale anywhere, second hand or new! Has anybody come across somewhere selling the genesis plates still? Additionally, I've read that the wintec gullet plates fit and can be used, does anyone know if this...

Mine came with horse 10 years ago and have carried my 10-11 stone weight perfectly without showing any signs of bending or weakness- Now they've been swapped onto my youngsters saddle. Although some of the cheapy peacock irons do look weak to say the least but I guess this could be the same...

Perhaps this spring has something in the air! Luckily this girl isn't acting up at all just being a right slapper with anything that moves, I just feel sorry for the other mare who just doesn't love her back in the same way :o

Got to love shetlands eh :rolleyes3: Ours is over 40 and nearly blind both sides, yet he regularly gets through any (even tiny) gaps in the hedges, if there's any gate or door left open and/or unlocked he's in (he's in next doors garden or chicken pens nearly every other day). We only ended up...

Just been out watching the horses on this lovely day and one of the mares is being the biggest flirt EVER (Read as winking non-stop, squealing, positioning herself in front etc.) with my other MARE! She's never been like this in all the 10 years I've had her, I think she must have realised...

Thankyou! :)

Think I will go with the Best condition then, I was wondering if it would be more show pony related or like a riding club pony class as the schedule is lacking much info! Just hope she has fun, she will be absolutely blown away by seeing new horses, she lives quite the sheltered life :p With...

Cadging a lift to a show in early April, going to take my rising 4 welsh, Cassie. It's her first party and so I'm planning on her being a little over excited, my friends classes start at around midday and end as one of the last of the day so I'll have a good few hours for her to have a look...

My most recent reason is with my youngster, the way she whinnies at me if she sees me through any window in the house- cue big grin every time!

The wintec one still rubbed her but it wasnt as bad as other types, perhaps the Ventech is a good one to try! Thanks every one suggesting it :) **totters off to ebay**
