Thank you for this :) And thank you everyone else, I had heard years ago that they were made by a reputable company but couldn't remember who it was! As I will only be feeding a token feed (not feeding kg's a day as recommended!) to say "isn't it lovely coming into your stable at night/well...

Hi all, It is time for horse to be stabled at night for the winter, so I am looking for his winter feed. Normally my concern is weight gain, as he is normally a very lean horse and loses weight throughout winter (TbX 9yo) so I normally feed him sugarbeet +/- chaff, however this year he looks...

I have decided! The other girls price includes chaff/nuts and 6k hay, I think I will scrap the feed and increase hay to at least 8/10kg depending if horse or pony. A lot of her liveries are lami or ems (she runs a fat camp lol) so that's probably why hay is so low. Is this more along the...

Thanks, I didn't mention before.... the entire barn is of 13 stables, one girl is currently renting 7 and I would take on the extra 6 so I will be sticking to what she currently charges. She includes 6kg hay plus 25p per kilo extra, I guess so if you do have a massive horse who needs more it...

Thank you :eek: I had no idea, I will wait and see what comes my way and hide!

Hello lovely HHO'ers, I have the chance of taking on an exisiting livery yard (in terms of building and legality but no customers) and have been seriously mulling over the figures. I am aware I wont get rich, but atm i am only working 12 hours a week and I would be better off doing this...

Thank you all for your good luck's and suggestions :) I think I will go with black stretchy jeans/jeggings and have a spare pair in car and arrive in jod boots with wellies in car to cover all eventualities! The funny thing is I'm not even sure how I managed to get this opportunity.... As...

Thank you! I am so exited/nervous I could cry lol !!

I have a trial tomorrow for a nurse position in an equine hospital, Have been told to wear something very warm, decent boots and coat as you will be getting hands on. I'm stuck for ideas in what trousers to wear (eg close fit/jod type or ???) and wether to wear my long yard boots, short...

Thanks :)
