My girl likes hobnobs apparently... sadly so do I so I'm not sharing! :P I've also tried her with an orange before but she wasn't that fussed...

so what have you tried with your horse? :)
 
My Mare loves bicuits,toast,tea,coffee,coke (drinks- only wants them when iv got them....and has to drink it out my cup! if i put it in a bucket i no for a fact she wouldnt want it !! :rolleyes:

she loves absolutley everything,especially if im eating it then it must be extra nice !!! apart from shes not too keen on crisps??
but neither am i so its all good :D
 
Candy Floss.

Long gone hunter that did the Point to Point, take them to the start, pick up the fallers. If he was allowed to speak to the spectators I had to be so careful because he just adored pinching the candy floss off the children.

Have a lovely picture of him with it all over his nose and a kid in tears !
 
Hot tea with lots of sugar.... That'll teach me to be more alert at a show, I didn't even get chance to get myself another one before our next class and nearly died of thirst!!!
 
My old share horse used to love Flapjacks. Any flavour, but preferably Cherry with yogurt icing on the top - If I fed her a plain one you could almost see her think
"what are you doing??...there's no yogurt on this!! This is just oats....that's a rubbish treat!"
But she'd eat it just to be polite.
 
My mare loves Hula Hoops and hot chocolate! And my cob loves Jammie Dodgers! Always end up stocking up before we take them out anywhere, its their 'good pony' treat ;)
 
Mine loves oranges, cereal bars & cheese & onion crisps. Daughters pony eats almost anything, her favourites being hot chocolate, coffee, pot noodles & orange juice. Even had to get her a plastic cup to stop daughter doing some for me, some for you lol.
 
Mine loves plain dairy milk chocolate - when ever im eating dairy milk he makes the loudest racket on his stable door to the point where he's nearly broken free, until i give him some! I always save him the little chocs from roses collections at Christmas times and he seems very thankful for it :)
 
My mare likes a variety of fruit. She shares grapes, melon, mango, pets and pineapple with me. Skips and pickled onion crisps are quite funny too.... She likes the taste but not the fizzing sensation so we get some right faces!
 
Cobblet likes the pickled onioin flavour monster crisps,nice pears but not hard ones.Hes not fussed on snickers bar. He doesnt like polos either,rather have a xxx strong mints. Will NOT touch apple flavoured horse treats,he spat it out.
Section A loves polos,swede,apples,pears and refused to eat the xxx strong mint and snickers.
 
Kal will eat pretty much anything. At hunt meets he used to steal sausage rolls apparently. He once swiped half a prawn salad sandwich I was eating. He loves digestives - particularly the chocolate ones, bananas (in their skins), Lockets (those throat soother things with honey in the middle) . . . he really isn't picky.

My daughters pony loves Wheat crunchies especially the worcester sauce flavour!
My horse is obsessed with dry extra hot curry powder!- I'm not insame i tried it to stop him chewing fence poles but he licked it all off, licked the floor round each post and when offered the pot to sniff curled his tongue in and ate what was left!!!
 
My horse use to love ice cream. I remember one hunter trial and my mum had brought me twister ice cream to eat on teh way home as it was a really hot day. He planted and refused to move, i past the ice to mum to give him a smack and he bent round and bit the top of it!!! He was happy to walk home then. After that he had one at every show he went to after he had competed !!! It was his form of the bacon roll!
 
Mine love candy floss too! They like most things TBH, especially ginger nuts and marmite on toast! Flapjacks another favourite and quavers!
 
My old shire used to knock on the patio door for toast with butter on it we used to make our own then ½ dozen for Eddie to munch on Fox never got a look in he'd make faces at him so we used to feed him spring greens at the other side of the house so he would feel left out he loves them.
 
Not a treat but the exact opposite... if I give mine apple (whole, sliced/crushed) she will pick the bits out of my hand or the bowl and spit them at me while pulling a tortured face!

(I got the same reaction with bits of ice over winter... she wasn't impressed to be sharing a paddock with it!)

Bog standard carrot trumps all with her. The second I take a bite she's at my side!
