Thanks for the suggestions I am willing to try anything to make sure she gets all of the supplement without pilling on the pounds as she is finally at a good weight. :)

My horse has been prescribed Synequin joint supplements by the vet. So for the past week she has been having two scoops as advised in her usual feed of Spillers Happy Hoof. Normally she will lick the bucket clean but since adding the supplement she will pick at half and then leave the rest. If...

I like the sound of the gates idea, and bathing her is on the cards for the next dry warm day (without heavy showers and thumder storms). She isn't a fan of getting wet (washing her mane and tail and feet etc) so any tips for a stress free bath on her part would be useful (I don't have access to...

Thanks for your comments, was thinking of starting to long rein her next year. She does spend most of her time being a baby and usually only one or two half hour sessions a week on basic training which she really enjoys, I have done feet with her but she does need more practice loading but i...

Hi, I have a 2 year old filly who lives out 24/7 and I have had her since she was 7 months old. I have worked on ground manners with her and some bombproofing exercises but was wondering if anyone has any suggestions of some activities I can do with her as she loves to learn new things. I...

Oh right thanks, its good to know I have a few options to consider to get it all sorted.

Thanks for that I will see if I can get her scanned as soon as possible then.

Yeah the vet did mention that but said to wait to see if she comes into season first and that she would have to wait for a few more weeks to be able to get a clear scan of a foal, but I will probably have her scanned just to be sure.

Hi, I havn't really posted on here before but I could do with some advice or if anyone has been in a simmilar stuation about what happens with the abortion injection and how to check if a horse is in season. I went to check up on my two year old filly in the field two weeks ago and found...

I have just used a sample bag of wood pellets from Liverpool woodpellets, and I spread them out underneath the straw I normally use to test them out. My horse is quite messy and usually very wet and I am taking out nearly all her straw everyday. After putting the sample bag of pellets down for...

Thanks for your replies, just going to order one for just under £30. :)

Have recently put down rubber matting and have started to use wood pellets in my stable, is there anywhere to buy a rubber matting fork to make mucking out easier that won't break the bank, as I have only been able to find ones that cost £30 min. Thanks
