Being chestnut I think the flies are going to bother Micah, and as he also has a small sarcoid (which won't get covered anyway as its by his groin/shealth. But I guess I need to use a fly rug. The one I have hangs down his tummy about 6 inches lol and has also seen much better days!!

My thinking is that on days when we may have showers he would need a waterproof rug, but as soon as it dries up he would be better in a fly rug. I can't afford a Rambo and liner so was looking at this one

What do you think??

Also can you buy a fly mask that would also protect his white nose from the sun??

many thanks and chocolate if you get this far
 
rug looks good, for his face if he'll keep one on these are very IMO as you can use it with or without the nose part and its got good protection against UV.

Or if he gets it off quickly (think Pidge here :D) then go for a cheap leather headcollar, fly fringe attached to headcollar and nose net which works extremely well and touch wood Pidge has only got out of his once or twice!
