Well I have now been on my new yard a few weeks now and my horses are the most settled I have ever known them. My 5yo TB gelding who previously was a mentalist is as quite as a mouse. My old gelding who is lame and looked like wouldn't make it off our old livery yard has a new spring in his step and vet has given him a 6 month repreive (we assess him every six months or so as he is getting on). He's alot more comfortable and moving so much better.
I do miss my indoor school but I'm made up on my own little yard up to my eye balls in mud. It's great.
On the flip side, my previously very clean mare (on straw) has taken to hidding her poos. I look over the door each morning thinking Ooo a nice clean stable then i realise I can't see a single dropping as she has churnned them into her bed. The other too have become supper clean on shavings when previously they were dirt bags. Ah well.
