Stable mirrors? Anyone used them?

Hi as above really

Was considering fitting one in my trailer if they are any good
don't know anyone who's used them.

My lad gets rather stressy when he's on his own and thought it might help him when he's in it between classes at shows to stop Him whittling!

Any other ideas welcome, i suppose the more he goes on his own the more relaxed he will be?

Thanks all

I have them in both my stables, the boys seem to like them, when standing resting, it's always next to the mirror.

I have one and have used it with two horses. My mare absolutely loved it and would whicker at it and stare at herself in it all day. It really chilled her out in her box (got it for her because she tried to jump the door stressing and nearly broke her legs!)

My little filly isn't overly fussed for it. Looked at it about twice and now ignores it in favour of her haynet. But she isn't what you'd call a stress head to be fair!!

I'd say it would definitely be worth a go as the results in horse number one were truly amazing. I was really sceptical and couldn't believe how much she loved it!!

I suppose it would be worth having in there anyway so I can use it to tie my stock

Saves breaking my neck looking in the wing mirrors!

hehe. If your horse is anything like my mare was you won't be able to see in it after five minutes. She used to snuffle up to it and leave snot and grease all over it! I had to clean it most weeks so she could still enjoy her reflection!
