Went up to check the herd this evening and they had obviously spent the entire day rooting in the edges of the field where the hedges are. Several were covered in those horrible prickly ball things, one little mare's tail had twisted round so many times it resembles a plait!! Lots had rolled up forelocks.
Now on the basis that they will no doubt get more of these things and I really can't spend literally days removing them from their tails (at least 20 have them) what are the chances of them just working their way out?
Some are youngsters so don't suggest spraying oil etc on their tails, they'd kick me to kingdom come!
