how many times aday do you...

[horsey mad matt]

just wandering really

 

[piggyinablanket]

3 or 4. He is stabled close so Im very lucky. He is stabled at night ATM but will still see to him a minimum of twice in summer when he is out.

 

[narkymare]

my horse is checked twice by us - my husband every morning and me each afternoon/evening.
However he is not alone inbetween - its a busy livery yard and we all look out for each others horses, yos live on site and work there so they see them all the time xxx

 

[MiJodsR2BlinkinTite]

Mine lives here at home on the farm, so a great bonus being able to look out and see what he's up to! (not that I always want to know, especially if he's out there playing mud pies like he was today).

 

[SavingGrace]

Either me or my sharer are there once a day even though Holly is kept on full livery.

 

[lucy974]

Twice a day

Am and Pm to feed and check he is ok .

Because couple of years ago i went up in the morning to feed and check on him and then i went back later on and he had ran through a fence and cut his leg right down to the bone, if i didn't go up in the afternoon he would of been like that all night and been in loads of pain and it would of got very badly infected

so that's why i go up twice a day

 

[brown tack]

I check mine twice by me, once early morning, then evening (normally do yard duties and ride then)
livery yard turns out and brings in, as my work rota doesnt fit in with the lovely ladies at lesure at my yard, and they also do a 11pm night check

so 5 times a day, but from the hours of 7am to 6pm there is always someone down the yard to keep an eye

yo lives on site as well

 

[Sanolly]

My YO and I share the days so we each go once a day.

 

[Dizzydancer]

only see mine once in winter either to put out or fetch in YO does the other time as mine is out with hers. in summer i will still only go once a day as YO checks early morning and late night when walking dogs i just go up to feed.

 

[Pipkin]

When ever I want because they`re at home

 

[jsr]

I go once a day, he's on livery so they bring him in for me but I muck out, groom and ride. I go every single day come hell or high water!! Only missed out 3 days last year, 2 for when I went to Badminton and 1 when the snow was so bad I couldn't get out of my village!! Hated missing checking him because no one looks after him as well as me!!

He's on a busy livery yard and YO her daughter live there, and my farrier lodges there too!! Conviently!! So the yard is never unattended and horses are always monitored. I wouldn't be happy leaving my horse unless someone was around to be honest.

 

[Kenzo]

Morning and evening, but that's because I turn out in a morning, YO fetchs them in but I'm there straight after work to see to them.

 

[Damnation]

Once. YO Hays and Feeds them all early and turns them out if the weather is good. He then brings them in and I am up after work

 

[celia]

I'm often in the field 4 or 5 times each day, but am lucky enough to have them at home so can check on them whenever I like.

 

[Sprout]

I keep mine at home, so can keep a beady eye on them all the time.

 

[Tink_87]

3 times, when they go out in the morning, when they come in and again at around 10pm by YO.

 

[Chestnut mare]

Only once as share chores with the other horse in fields owner! So she checks 1 end of day and I do other end.

 

[mulledwhine]

When my horse was away it was twice a day, but now that daughters pony is right next to the house it is whenever I walk out the door, and twice at night

 

[miss_bird]

I have put once as i am there all day, so even thought they get a good check over in the morning when i get there they are glanced at all dy

 

[oscarwild]

Twice a day morning and night. I turn her out in the morning and bring her in at night. It can be more depends on the day. But my YO is always going from house to yard so she always passes the field so she checks all is ok when she passes too.

 

[Meowy Catkin]

I keep mine at home, so can keep a beady eye on them all the time.

I've got the same situation although it's usually the chesnut that keeps her eye on me. You cannot do anything outside without her noticing and having a good old gander, the other two aren't quite as nosey.
