    Has anyone used these as fieldshelters?

    Thanks, I'm definatly going for a wooden one. The whole idea of my horse "camping out" seems a bit ridiculous now!! ;)

    Working livery?

    My boy used to be on WL and I hated every minute of it. I had to give 24 hours notice if I wanted to ride him, fair enough but after a while I was being told to be back at a certain time as they needed him. Once I went out at 10.30 and was told to be back by 11.00 even though I had booked him...

    Has anyone used these as fieldshelters?

    I do think it's hideous myself but was thinking of my horsey!! And now I've had 10 minutes to think about it, nah, stupid idea!! I always do this, find something that looks really good and I get all excited over it, then sensible head kicks in and I really look into it and see that actually...

    Or know of someone who has/does and you have anything good or bad to say about them. I found them on eBay and they claim to withstand gusts of wind to gale force 10, and ideal for horses and cattle. And at £649 it's alot cheaper than traditional shelters which I can't afford. Your views...

    This storm...everyone OK?

    It was terrible this morning, lots of bits of trees in the road and awful flooding. My car broke down, I was crawling through a huge flood, I was doing very well, then some numpty in a 4X4 (no offence, wish I had one instead of a Fiesta!) came hammering through and drowned me, car died! 2 nice...

    Have you turned out this morning?

    My boy lives out, and the weather doesnt bother him in the slightest! He's stood happily grazing in the middle of the field and it's blowing a gale and hoofing it down! I would much prefer them out in windy weather than in, I've seen a stable roof ripped off in the wind and the poor horse badly...

    Trickle Nets........are amazing! Will save you so much hay + keep your horse amused!

    Also want to add that if people are on a budget and saying they cant afford it, then do it the old fasioned way and save up for it! A pound in a pot here and there, it all mounts up fairly quick!!!

    Despite the cost I think in the long run you would save money, if they do as it states they do, don't stretch or rip, then yes, I would pay 30 quid for one. My boy lives out and I've tried everything, feeding hay on the ground which gets walked on and dissapears in the mud, a normal haynet which...

    am i harming him?

    No, he will be fine, at 3 years old and being a cob he will be pretty sturdy! It's not like he has the little spindly legs of an Arab or TB!! :)

    Gritters?! Like you say, pointless, will just be blown and washed away. They should save it for when it's actually going to help!
