    Horse feed worries.

    She thinks I'm feeding her too much. She's not fat at all she looks right for her age. The grass has had all of the test done and it's got really good nutrition in it. The only reason I've got fast fibre in her diet is because I can mix the supplements in she doesnt turn up her nose at...

    Horse feed worries.

    Top spec lite was recommended by the farrier because of the hoof supplement that it contains.

    Does garlic really keep the flies away?

    Garlic doesn't work. Only product I really found to work is think fly and saved me lots of money in the long run as it stopped all the fly bites on my tb who is very sensitive. 4kg tub lasts me a few months and before that I was using a big bottle of fly spray a month. It's 33£ but it's worth it...

    3 year old tb

    Thank you, think I've just been a bit worried as all my other tb's have been so forward at this age. She's only small and seems to take everything in her stride and is not fussed. X

    3 year old tb

    Does any one have any advice on what to feed my TB that's just about to start work. I don't want her to go skinny with work and starting to break her. I also think she needs a bit more energy she has a bit of a relaxed attitude completely strange for a 3 year old tb but she's very well handled...

    Help, tack deposit

    The tack is the lady trying to pull a fast one with trying to be the owner! Which wasn't true. She's been really awful in all of this and cannot understand what she has done to that poor horse. Teeth overdue by 6 months. No proper vaccinations, not wormed etc etc etc etc x

    I loan a horse for a short while, after I got the vet in to vet check it before I took it on longer term I found out it was unusable for what I wanted to do. After a long hassle with the loaner who thought she was the horses owner but turned out she wasn't the real owner picked her up...
