Relocating from my own land for work and need 3-5 acres, ideally a shelter/storage/bit of hard standing between Bedale + Richmond. Experienced horse owner and land manager. Please DM - moving December. Many thanks

Is this still available and if so where is it please?

I am considering sending my homebred 3 yr old away for a bit of life experience and to learn some new skills that with a new job and lots of travel I just am not able to give her any consistency with. I am considering Guy Robertson in East Yorks and wondered if anyone has any reviews please...

I've just popped on wondering if anyone can recommed a good trimmer in E Yorks as mt current one is so unreliable its now becoming a welfare issue (+ doing my head in!) and read this thread - yikes :o I thought we'd moved past the cuckoo cloud post Strasseur. I am v wary of DAEPs having had...

My 2 yr old PRE x TB is likely going to need a fly rug, shes a 5.9/6ft premier equine turnout but its quite loose on her width wise. Obv fly rug needs to be a lot tighter so just wondered if anyone had any suggestions - usually Im in XL ones for a friesian so this is a new one on me .

Having had a discussion with the other vet on the case she doesnt think it was a reaction to the frozen, as when she discharged her post wash out etc she was clean - however from almost 2/3 days from being home the mare was chucking stuff out the back end and when the original vet scanned for...

Solar powered reolink in field, took the caravan down as soon as she started bagging up but the morning there was milk dripping I didnt leave the field til she had it at 9pm that evening. She did nothing I had read about re signs of labour and the only odd thing was a big cat stretch about an...

Heya experienced breeders Q - have you ever had a mare chuck up a lot of fluid from frozen and if so tried again with steroids to try s d reduce the inflammatory response? If so what was the outcome? Many thanks

We tried twice in 2020 with chilled - massive fluid reactions and a right mess. Had a free return in 2021 and new vet said go raw, deep horn and bingo healthy foal. Rolling the dice on frozen this year so we will see *crosses fingers*

Anyone got one that fits an ifor 511 please? For travelling a mare alone who is far happier with company (no I cant find a friend to take with her!)

Its swollen and hot enough for me to be concerned enough to be persevering with the cold therapy (mine live out and I usually leave well alone tbh!) still sound on it though. I'd be very interested in your long reply if you have time - all knowledge is worth having :)

I am not hosing - I said that! I have some cold boots, which we got on with v well with her front legs for a similar issue, she's reached that klutz stage, but applying to her back is a big mental block. God knows why bute hadn't occurred to me - doh! She's still on AB's from her peri rectal...

I'd like some thoughts from the brain trust on how others go about this as I dont think I am getting it right - or rather, could do better! Foal has been handled every day since birth, leads and loads well, has feet picked out and trimmed etc. Is very anti hose -not even going there atm,so got...

Here is PJ, 9 months old, still not weaned ?‍♀️ she’s had a peri recital abscess two weeks ago, we are on long term ABs and waiting rescan 14th Feb so not weaning til that’s done and dusted then this morning she somehow gouged a chunk out of her inner FR whilst standing eating hay ?
