Look at this on eBay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/182491432850 They seem to be a good deal if they are any good. Also, how much are second hand, well looked after liveryman harmony plus clipper going for?

In that case, if my horse was to injure someone, could they claim off my insurance?

If a public liability insurance policy is taken out, is the horse only insured if it kicked a car while hacking for example if the named policy holder is riding or would it cover anyone riding with the permission of the named owner?

My mate is very greedy and at the moment gets her hay in a small holed net which to be honest doesn't seem to be slowing her down and it seems as though any amount of hay doesn't last her the night. Someone suggested putting her hay loose on the floor as she may take her time if she can see...

Do you think if i mix probed with straw, my mare will detered from eating straw? I know that its not definate but would it be worth a try because The probed rapestraw is really bitter (I know from experience:D)

Luckily it's only a small bit of pink skin, the rest just looks all lumpy and inconsistent. I attempted a chased clip and one side is also higher than the other, but I suppose it will grow out soon 😓... hopefully

The problem with my mare is she will go straight to her straw bed and eat loads or she will stand at her haynet, no matter how much I give and she will keep eating untill its all gone and then move onto the straw.

How much per bale is that?

Looking for a way to maintain a decent bed without going through a shtload of shavings and the costs that come with it. I have tried straw, she ate it and while I would like to be able to use straw, I dont really want to risk trying different methods incase she does eat it all again anyway (I...
