Anyone elses horses moulting?

[DD]

Mine are !

 

[Fluffypiglet]

Yup, been shedding for a couple of weeks now but he's definitely moving up a gear now so I'm generally covered in white hairs which is making my nose itch just thinking about it! Plus the cat has decided to join the big moult at home so I have some ginger fluff on work clothes too...

 

[The Trooper]

Yup! In the Scottish Borders.

Bonnie is, she is rugged and stabled at night, Belle is not, she is clipped and lives out.

Some of the horses at the yard are behaving like it is spring as well... Oh how I wish it was.

 

[meleeka]

Yes. My unrugged cob is. The others have the odd hair but not properly yet. My first year with a grey pony, the others are black, I’m dreading it!

 

[Leo Walker]

Yup, I noticed on Saturday shes started. Springs on the way!

 

[Denbob]

Yep! Has been since second week of Jan

 

[catkin]

Fellboy is, the old lady is hanging on.

It's been a bit surreal these past few days - combing out shedding coat whilst there's inches of snow outside!!

 

[Pinkvboots]

Mine are a little bit I am still going to clip the hairy one or he will get too hot once his doing faster work.

 

[Fiona]

My blanket clipped, rugged connie is, the other two (also clipped and rugged) aren't.....

Very strange, he's been shedding like mad for about two weeks.

[Bernster]

Yep, especially yesterday when it was coming off in clouds! Greys eh.

 

[Fiona]

I've three .... greys that is...

 

[criso]

Yes noticed yesterday when giving the retired tb a rare groom that hair was coming out.

 

[JulesRules]

I'm used to a hairy horse but this is my first spring with a Highland. He is mounting like a good un. Looking forward to being able to give him a proper bath once his summer cost comes through. Can't bath him in winter as he takes too long to dry!

 

[live2ride]

The one is but she started moultng the week before christmas, but she always drops early. The other not a single hair yet.

 

[Molasses]

Yup. My littlest started about 10 days ago. He's always the first to molt and about the same time every year.

 

[Annagain]

I've three .... greys that is...

Two more here. I looked like the yeti by the time I finished giving them a good groom yesterday....and that was just their legs, their bodies are fully clipped.

 

[oldie48]

Although I am missing LF and his funny little ways I am not missing having him shed his very hairy coat, new girl is very TBish and though unclipped has a very light coat and not shedding as yet. Rose isn't shedding what is left of hers either.

 

[J&S]

Yes, retired coloured has been shedding for quite a while, especially the white! Baby pony loosing some on her quarters mostly. I am really looking forward to seeing her summer coat, her bay is really very red, like a fox colour.

 

[The-Bookworm]

Just noticed some hairs today.

 

[rosiesowner]

Yes, really starting to let go of some hair. I clipped her out at the start of winter and it has since grown back to her normal winter coat. Didn't bother re-clipping as she's got a fine coat anyway and hasn't been working incredibly hard. Cannot wait to give her a good bath and scrub when it's warm enough!

 

[staffylover]

Another one here. Gypsy coloured cob, just a few hairs off her rump. Shows spring isn't that far away

 

[twiggy2]

Not horses as I don't currently have one 😭
Other have is desperate for me to have one, we have not been together long but he realises when I talk about them how large a part of my life they have been, he threatens to just bring one home! He won't, I don't think.
Any way back to the subject.
The kennel dogs are moulting like mad and we are in the Scottish Highlands!

 

[ElleSkywalker]

Cobbler and shetland moulting but only the cobblers white patches 🤔

 

[GoldenWillow]

Cob is losing the odd hair but the Shetland has started in earnest. Unusual for both of them to be losing any this early.

 

[Surbie]

Nope - mine's hanging on to what is left of his after being clipped in December. I am looking forward to his summer coat coming through, he goes from black to a glossy dark brown/bay.

 

[Red-1]

Yes, since before Xmas!

I am sick of it, grey hair everywhere. Her neck is looking a lot sleeker, but tummy still fuzzy.

 

[freckles22uk]

Yes mine is

 

[ILuvCowparsely]

Nope my horses are not casting their coats

 

[Dave's Mam]

Yup, been shedding for a couple of weeks now but he's definitely moving up a gear now so I'm generally covered in white hairs which is making my nose itch just thinking about it! Plus the cat has decided to join the big moult at home so I have some ginger fluff on work clothes too...

I have Exmoor & cat hair everywhere!
