is that normal? I dont remember noticing it on other TB's

it just seems very very long??? ..... it might seem bit of a thicko Q - but if i'm turning chewbacca out in the morning lol!!! just kidding


how wooly are your neddies lol???

 

[Sparkles]

Very! My tb is looking not too dismilar to a yak....though a very shiny yak at least.
I'm away till new year now though and he's been off from moving and injuries for a while so havent bothered clipping him again.

 

[Jesstickle]

I have a yak like TB filly and a camel like TBxWB gelding who I really ought to clip again but he is happy in his fur coat and it's about to get cold again I believe

 

[polopony]

Yes, yes, yes. But that's probably because she's a dear old lady standing proud at thirty two with several inches of wool

How old is your horse? Could he/she have cushings?

 

[Kokopelli]

Mine is too fluffy atm but he's very shiny and looks in good condition. Is the coat stary at all?

 

[sami4971]

All ours have got decent winter coats, welshies, and warmbloods to the TB. As long as the coat looks healthy and shiny I wouldn't worry about it, it is just natures way of keeping the horse warm.

Its getting much better, he hasnt been properly looked after before but its very scurfy, coolstance feed is helping - i 'll be able to plat him all over lol - dredlock neddy x

Fany is very hairy, you lose your finger up past the 2nd knuckle before you touch skin. She is a cold blood though and out all day unrugged. Think 14-2hh Shetland


Cappy has very short hair, except on his neck. Which is hairy due to me being really cruel and not putting his rug with a neck on yet.
