Rain and mud have won, I give up!

[sidesaddlegirl]

Both my fields have a covering of water on top of the existing mud thanks to the rain we had before the snow and now ever more thanks to the melting snow!

So i have given up and now my neds have to stay on the little bit of hard standing that there is and a narrow section of grass..I mean mud that I have cordoned off between the two fields so they can at least have a bit of a roll and leg stretch.

I'm going to lay some grass seed down next month in the fields (hopefully) but that's it, hard standing until the spring!

our fields are the same and most of them will be in for a while now. i dont see the point in A. trashing the fields beyond repair or B. making them stand in a swamp all day
its a difficult decision to make but its made easier if you have reasonably sensible horses

Ditto - I've set up an arrangement in the yard with electric tape outside the stables so they can noodle around there but had to take them out of the mud. A pond is forming in one corner and one of these days we're going to here ducks quacking on it.

I have ducks in my field
