[Christmas_Kate]

Rock n roll ball, she whickers for it she loves it that much.

She bangs it round for a good few hours.

 

[shadowboy]

Sorry I forgot to say- I'm just trying to work out which/if any I should buy!

 

[Super_Kat]

Mine have a normal lickit on a string an a snack-a-ball each

 

[Christmas_Kate]

Rock n roll ball, there's no lid to lose and they're very very robust.

 

[Ottinmeg]

mine has a snack a ball, if i put it in when i put her dinner in she will have a mouthful of food then kick the ball about a bit then go back to her dinner. the ball doesnt last her long but by god does she make a racket with it!!

Shetland loves his snack ball and kicks it about until all the treats are gone.

Unfortunately the Lickit on a string lasted just an evening even though it was hung out in the field so that he couldn't squash it up against anything. Decided that him eating a whole one in 12hrs maybe wasn't the best thing so have given up with that idea as soon as it started!

Teddy has a Jolly ball and he has loads of fun with it, he waggles it around in his mouth and lobs it.... he does have a habit of throwing it out of the stable tho and then he can only look at it until it is retrieved.

My two have likits in the stable. Big horse wouldnt go in stable when I hung it up first and spend over an hour shaking and being upset. So I moved it against the wall and she has never touched it. The other one likes hers and will take two nights to eat it if its against the wall otherwise she loses interest and it just hangs there.

Mine has a salt lick in the stable if that's classed as a toy? Otherwise I've never bought one.

I have a dodecahedron (sp?!?!?!)

which he loves, stick a few horse treats in and he happily bashes it around the stable for a couple of hours

Although it's probably not the best toy if there are people living nearby, as they make one hell of a noise!!!

 

[Bosworth]

I give mine a snack ball if they are standing in and it will keep them happy for a couple of hours.

Linx has a decahedron, he has a handful of H&P nuts & its all gone by the morning. he doesnt like likits but he loves Horselyx, he has a large 1 (£10) which lasted from 7th Oct til 20th Dec! in the summer i buy the small 1's & put them in his bucket to melt flat, he has access to this when he comes in for a few hours or after riding

Gypsy doesnt like likits so she gets the rock n roll ball, its brill as its not round so takes longer for them to get the treats. Mae and Mo get the tongue twister likits, and i only put one in cause it makes it harder for them to get the treat, however mo got so annoyed with the one lick that he ripped the ball off the wall!!!

 

[Donkeymad]

I bought a decahedron which has been used on and off all day every day for years. Admittedly it has always been used in the field rather than in a stable as a boredom breaker, but they all love it!

 

[lilpinkdonkey4]

We have had and destroyed 2 snack a balls as she can get the lid off then chews round the inside of the lip so the lid doesnt go back on... we then went for a decahedron... MUCH better... cannot be destroyed!

Sidney has a lickit on a string (almost gone after 4 days!) and a snackaball. He loves the ball, rolls it around for ages, although I did worry when he had it on his bed the other day that he might lie on it...

When I first used an equiball the mare would nose it all over the paddock whilst the donkey followed and hoovered up. It was about two months before she twigged
