we are lucky enough to have turnout still but it looks more like a mud pit than a field although there is still grass further out. Most of the horses are going out for a few hours a day although 3 live out there permanently and some are just being exercised and not turned out at all.

i have no mud at all and horses out all day every day !! I am so lucky

Do you turn out in fields or onto hard standing? Whereabouts in Kent are you? No mud?? :eek:

Mine are out 6am to 7pm and still have good grass on wet fields but loads of mud around gateways and access areas. Never known it like this & totally fed up.

I'm not far from Orpington but have 34 acres less than you with 2 horses ;)

Grass is still ok though
