How do people get it done?! By the time I have ridden, its too dark to see the poos! I have just done a weeks worth today as just couldnt get it done in the daylight last week, but I dont wish to repeat this as wasnt a fun way to spend a sunday

So what does everyone else do?
 
I used to use a head torch! But now, I'm a VERY NAUGHTY GIRL and I don't do it at all. I have a teeny pony as companion and a horse. They are on 2.3 acres, and I am going to worm count twice a year and worm accordingly.

Apparently unless you pick up the poo in 24 hours the worms will migrate, so I feel I can't keep that up.

I think that may be a longterm plan, how old do you think they would have to be before I set them to work?

I got a head torch this week and its a GREAT way to get it done.

BUT beware.... the light attracts the flies from the poos as you bend down and pick them up keep your mouth SHUT or you'll be slipping the horried thing out all eve hehe.
