Lots of mud, lots of filthy horses.

The best and easiest way to remove caked on mud from these filthy beasts is to buy six stainless steel pot scourers, unravel them and plait them into a wadge and use that to remove the mud.

The horses do not mind it at all even on the ticklish bits, whether they are clipped or not and it really does remove the mud without wearing out.

this^^ i hose off all wet bits when he comes in, as he's got such thin skin he HATES having dry mud brushed off. He goes out in a full neck t/o and still comes in caked up his sides to his withers.... lord only knows how. but yes good tip FH!
 
What is a WADGE?

Happy to shape bits of wire wool stuff into anything but, what shape is this?
 
I used the Velcro on my coat sleeve yesterday :) littlun was so confused she let me do it and I ended up with a filthy sleeve... Scourers sound far more sensible, just to teach the horses that they aren't edible :D
Littlun helps
