Help me to revise for my Pony Club C Test please? Just ask me questions about anything about horse care. I need to do poisonous plants, field care and care of the pony at grass, stable managment and care of the stabled pony, points of the horse and hoof, feeding and the rules of feeding and general horse health. You could put pictures on too, like you send a pic and ask 'what markings does this pony have' and stuff like that. Any help appreciated

Ok, I have no idee of how difficult the test is supposed to be but how much Yew does it take to kill a horse?
a. A bucketful. b. A couple of mouths full. c. A couple of berries.

1. Describe the best place in a field to situate a field shelter.

2. Where in the field would you ideally put the water supply?

3. What does 'Harrowing' mean?

I'd say a couple of mouthfuls?

The best place to put a field shelter would be either with it's back against a fence or with plenty of space around the back so no horses can get stuck. if possible it should be with its back facing the normal direction of the wind in that area.

The best place to put the water supply would be not too near the gate, against fencing or with plenty of space around each side. It shouldn't be underneath a tree so leaves don't fall in. The should always be water in the field shelter too.

Harrowing means to use a harrow (think thats the right word to use

) to spread out and scatter all the poo in a field so it can be washed into the grass by rain and be used as a fertaliser
