How are they looking weight wise please

Every month I review my horses condition and adjust the feed as necessary. These are pictures taken tonight inbetween rug changes. Please ignore the mud!

They look great! Well rounded and a fantastic shine! Don't think you need to change anything!

I think that weights fine for this time of year, i'd say they were lacking topline which as you will know will come with work

They look perfect to me - not too fat and not too thin!

Looking good, love the dun one!

 

[Blizzard]

Perfect!

Love the decorated stables!!!

look nicely covered. I don't know how fit they are. Would just be concerened if still looking like that when spring grass comes through though.

They're perfect! You're doing a grand job!

I would say they are both on the podgy side and lacking muscle, but I am used to fit racehorses.
Would either lessen the feed, or up the work - perhaps a combination of both.

They aren't very fit. I refused to sell them when I went to university so over the winter months, although well cared for they get neglected on the riding side. They are fit enough for local comps and hacking but the fitness programme comes in to play at the end of march ready for the summer.

I agree with vicijp but nothing to worry about....do you use pledge on the bay?

 

[showjump2003]

lol, the bay is just groomed daily lol, no products added.

I posted this post as I wanted to stop the bays hard feed. A couple of months ago she was a bit too lean so just wanted peoples opinions on her current condition. Thanks.
