In all honesty, I'm not sure it comes down to breed/type. I had a wonderful Arab who was the sanest, most sensible little chestnut mare ever. I so wish she was still with me now as I had complete trust in her. Sadly old age and Cushing's/laminitis meant she had to cross the bridge 😢 I now have a...

Can't help sorry. But, does anyone remember the Julip horses/ponies? I used to love them as a child :) long time ago mind you 😄

Please don't use hobbles, he could lose his balance! Buy some ear plugs (for you)

Can you put the manure into old plastic feed bags and then tip them into the skip?

I'm retiring soon. I eligible for my state pension in December, but I'm going to retire at the end of October, as I've had enough! I'm not going to pretend though, I think it's going to be tough financially. I have 3 ponies, two in their twenties and one 15yrs old, all of them have Cushings...

I love the Woof-Wear riding socks. They have a padded foot, similar to the Cotswolds ones, but a thinner leg (tall ones) so you can fit them in riding boots. They do them in long or short, I find them very comfy and so far, they've worn well.

Red-1 How do they reach the hay that falls to the back of the feeder? It looks amazing, but I know if there was any hay mine couldn't reach, he would be doing everything in his power to reach that hay, including trying to destroy the hay feeder. He has already destroyed two Hay Hutches!

When I was more active, I used to ride one day and lunge the next - just saved me washing my hair everyday :)

Takes ages to dry it though 😄

It's very tricky, I've also got a chunky one, and the vet advised I give him some barley straw, rather than extra hay, so I'm doing this now. I introduced it slowly and now he has a bigger, very small holed, hay net and a smaller straw net.

Urrgh, I use Vet 365 as well. I can't help I'm afraid, but thanks for the heads up about Vet 365

I used Headland Polo and it got rid of my buttercups. This was a few years ago and they've never come back as strongly as they were, I only get a few now. If and when they get out of hand again, I'll get it sprayed with that again.

I think that's what a lot of owners did in Ukraine

That's so sad. Big hugs and sincere condolences to Karen, Em and everyone who loved the big man 💙

I jump off and walk for a while :) I find my riding muck boots quite warm - colt I think they're called.
