Far from the madding crowd
A horseshoe nail on a yellow shoelace for stones in white lines. It is tied to the hoof pick.
all the above for me plus WD40 :-DDuck tape, insulation tape, cable ties, binder twine, pen knife. I cannot function without those things to hand.
An idolo. Best piece of kit ever. Gets used on every single horse. No more pulling back or stupid accidents.
Some great things on here - given me some ideas! One of mine is replacing tail straps on rugs for a PVC coated one (I get mine from PE) - makes it so much nicer to look at and clean.
Cheapest roko buckle headcollar for catching in. They can be done up one handed when your wrist is in plaster (yes I can vouch for it ) and there's no faffing trying to get a tongue in a hole if the horse is being a bit flighty.

I've not heard of this before - is it worth the price tag?SO right!
I have a couple of these, and I guard them furiously from predators, as they are the best hoofpicks in the world https://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Ultimate-Hoofpick-105696-Jackhammer/dp/B005HWBIMU
A big water butt. Put the netted hay in, fill it up, leave it to soak, then open the tap at the bottom and drain out all the water
I think so. I buy the kids ones which are a bit cheaper, and similar size to a normal hoofpick. They are really strong, and you can get even the most rock hard mud out easily. I bought my first one when Alf had sports bar shoes on, and I couldn't pick the concrete-like mud out of them, as there were no grooves available to help with leverage. I've never gone back to normal hoofpicks!I've not heard of this before - is it worth the price tag?
Spare fillet strings. I hate leg straps so I replace them with some spares I bought on amazon. Plus when they're not in use, they're great for holding gates closed as mine know how to open lift gate catches.
This is so true,... when I moved to my new home and brought the ponies home I couldn’t tie up but I thought as soon as I open my first bale of haylege it’ll be ok".. only the haylege was not bound... I had to go and cadge so twine from the yard down the road.... weirdest request ever and they looked incredibly confused it took quite a lot of explainingBaling twine useful for fixing everything
I cut pieces of hose pipe and thread through cotton fillet strings, a lot cheaper than buying the PE ones, I found the clips go quickly on the PE ones.Some great things on here - given me some ideas!

That's a really good idea! Didn't think of that...I cut pieces of hose pipe and thread through cotton fillet strings, a lot cheaper than buying the PE ones, I found the clips go quickly on the PE ones.
Shires ones are good, they last for yearsI cut pieces of hose pipe and thread through cotton fillet strings, a lot cheaper than buying the PE ones, I found the clips go quickly on the PE ones.
