I still feed straights. But thank god for ready bagged chaff - does anyone remember having to make chaff by hand? Nightmare. We had hayledge back then, but I suppose in reality it was siledge. The horses loved it though, and did well on it in winter.
Supplements have gone mental. There seems to be a supplement for every eventuality. Whether they work or not. However, I do think that joint supplements have made a difference to a lot of horses.
Thank God for modern rugs, old jute rugs and canvas New Zealand were a nightmare, nothing nice about them at all. I remember when Bucas made their first ever breathable turnout with cross surcingles. Amazing.
Those awful hats that we used to wear with the chin cups. So uncomfortable. Rubber boots. Horrid.
