    Shetlands ate 3L of mollases :(

    Friends dainty little cob pony once broke out of her stable and scoffed half a brand new bag of dry speedibeet. How she didn't colic is a mystery. Crossing my fingers for you that the little terrors come away from this none the worse! They must have thought all their Christmases had come at once!

    Little Pip

    Pip-Pop continues to do great! She's now 1.7kg and is a really loving little kitten, when she's not having the zoomies that is. She went back for a follow up check with the vet yesterday, mostly to recheck her temperature as it was a bit elevated last time. It was elevated again yesterday, so...

    Bad outcomes/luck linked to a specific place?

    Can you give any examples of these ridiculous things?

    What saddles do you all use and do you all love or hate them?!

    Torsion Treeless Close Contact, but I suspect that's not the target saddle type here lol Edit: forgot the rest of the question, yes I do like it. Fits the wide, flat backed one very well and is super lightweight. I did cut out the closed ring stirrup bars and replace it with a removeable open...

    I reckon she's happy to tolerate the vets because it's a damn sight better than being back out in the cold at that farm 🤣

    Little Pip

    Ultrasound ended up happening today, pleased to say there's no fluid, no kittens, and nothing else of serious concern hooray! 🎉 Suspect she just needs more time for her innards to settle after her heavy worm burden, but at least that's things like FIP off my mind! She was a little star, just...

    How steep can sheep climb? Thinking of making a bank instead of fence to keep them out

    I've yet to witness sheep be truly contained by anything that isn't tall, completely vertical and nigh on impenetrable, aka a man made fence, Plus you can guarantee the wee nitwits would make a game of getting stuck in the bottom of anything resembling a ha-ha, sheep love to try and find new and...

    Little Pip

    Just some soggy Pip for your Thursday. What was supposed to be a quick stinky-paw washing turned into a full dip when she slipped in the tub, so she's sat on me, drying herself and making my leg damp in revenge. Haven't had any more worms in the last week, and she starting to poop more regularly...

    Yet another delightful rider..... not..... when will this end?

    The shanks either side of the mouth swivel independently, so I'm guessing the rider has taken up the left rein to ask the horse to bring it's head back around to the front, causing the shank closest to us to swivel back. The shank on the right side is not being acted upon by the rein, so is...

    Advice please? Ever think your horse isn’t the “one”?

    I know we like to idolize the idea of 'the one' or 'the horse of a lifetime', but do they really have to be? Is it not setting ourselves up for disappointment get stuck on the idea? She's a good size, good age, if she's not a constantly sick note/vet bill and she's doing everything you're asking...
