Due to the horrendous spring weather/winter being stubborn i keep hearing this time last year.... So this time last year what was different at the ponies for all of you...
this time last year my cob was already back in work at least 3 times a week! Struggle to do that at the moment because of flooded fields/tracks and our usually dry fibre sand school keeps getting water logged! He had his rug off (no fill to keeo him dry) and his winter coat was coming out in clumps! Hes still currently in his rug and no sign of letting go of that winter coat! Fields was dry and green and he was loose in his field, currently hes stull fenced in a winter section so he doesnt poach the whole field! I was turning up in jodphur boots and jeans to do my horsey jobs , still currently turning up in waterproofs, loads of layers and hat and gloves! He was off all feed and haylage... Still on feeds (as in the poached section and grass is almost gone) and keep having to buy haylage because it keeps bloody snowing!
Add photos if u have any from this time last year and now to compare mine is last spring around this time and the snowy one is the weekend just gone whenwe had more snow
