grazing muzzles for big horses

[kizzyjerry]

anyone use a grazing muzzle on ther elephants?

need one for a shire x (takes x-full) prefer the look of the field guard ones but dont think they will be big enough (anyone tired one?) any other recommendations?

quite happy to spend quite abit on one as potentially it will need to be on most of the time - he needs to live out due to old SI injury, so i'm trying to find a compromise between a small heavily grazed paddock, huge lush fields and his waist line (no lammi history etc)

thanks

Get a greenguard if you can get one in the right size. I tried a bucket type and it my rubbed my poor boy's nose raw.

I've got an aerborn one for my horse, he takes an x full in a bridle aswell. It's the same style as the shires ones and doesn't seem to come up as far. I had to cut the holes at the nostrils bigger on my shetland's shires one but the aerborn one seems to be ok on my horse. The fullsize greenguard muzzle doesn't fit mine unfortunatley

The Best Friends grazing muzzles come in Large horse and draught sizes, and ironically Dinky muzzles make a large sized one too.

My mare wears extra full tack, I bought her a Roma x-full grazing muzzle, equestrian clearance sell them. Its plenty big enough for her. I also sewed on some foam round it in case it rubbed under her chin and its been absolutely fine. Think they are about £12.
