No I’ve had him from December. He’s normally okay to lead. He came in overnight for a couple of months over winter and was generally fine to lead. This has been since he’s been living out and not handled as much. I agree probably a bad time to try. I struggle with the balance of leaving...
So just back from the yard to get my 2 in due to impending storm tonight.
One is a 2 yr old. He was an absolute toad to lead in, turning into me and rearing.
Eventually we managed to come in fairly nicely so decided to do some basic backing up/getting out my space etc.
Oh my god he literally...
I absolutely love the solar power ones. Someone on here recommend them to me. I have one for each strand to make sure it’s absolutely pinging! They’ve been a life saver for me as mine always seemed to know when the mains was off or weak
I had a 5 stage done on my current ridden horse, tried him 3 times, did all the right things! 11 months later aged 7 he basically broke down and is now only hacking sound.
I bought a yearling unseen from a breeder late last year. Did my research on the breeder, still got a basic vetting done...
Oh dear ☹ï¸
I would have just carried on doing what you were planning to do. The other horse will shout etc but it’s not the end of the world. He will have to get over it.
That’s exactly what I’m aiming for. What do you do when they get ahead of you though?
That’s where it starts with us, he gets excited and starts prancing about then feels the rope so turns into me?
My horse is grey and he’s never been massively bothered by the flies or midges etv. My new Youngster is dark bay and they definitely bother him more.
I usually get away with a few squirts of fly spray for my grey on bad days and that’s about it!!
Oh check my recent posts!
I have a 2yr old with mildly itchy but scabby patches of skin. I thought it might be sweet itch but luckily not. I ended up having the vet out today. She scraped the skin and sent samples off. She thought maybe microscopic type notes so gave me a sulphur wash, but most...
I get my 2yr old in once a week or so just to groom/feet used to coming in etc. Today he had the vet. The vet was late so he was in a super strop by the time she got there. I knew I was in for a challenge putting him back out 😂
He doesn’t read/buck/kick etc but he does this snake neck thing...
Just to update....
Vet just been. Took some scrapes. Doesn’t think sweetitch. She thought maybe mites or something microscopic that he’s reacted to. She said it’s like his body has gone into overdrive and produced all this greasy dandruffy type skin. She gave me a sulpher wash but reckons...
