I had my first go with a leaf blower on our track today.
Our track is great. But we do get a lot of small bits of poo left which can't be picked and occasionally myself and other members of staff have to set to and give it a good sweep or rake on our popular top side of the track. This is very labour intensive. I did see Abbotts View Livery: Barefoot and Back to Nature post about their leaf blower and mentioned it to the lovely Sam from Honeysuckle Farm, Dunswell and she said she had one I could try. So today we set about test driving a leaf blower. I have to admit I enjoyed it (and I'm not a tidy person) and I think it did a pretty good job.

So the next big questions are which type and brand do I get? Are there any local shops where I can test drive different brands and types and see which will work best for us?
I was using a petrol one today. Does anyone have any advice?

It's tapeworm testing time of year. So I section the herds off into smaller more manageable groups to restrict eating, drinking and exercising as per the instructions for 30 mins.
Naturally Drifter checks I've read the instructions correctly.
It's amazing how some horses produce loads more saliva than others.
Id love to know why?

Wow wow wow, literally as suspected 48 hours and all the water is literally gone.
There was sooo much rain. The track does really well but I did think that this recent rain was going to cause longer issues. But I love my tracks and I think the horses do too.

Do you ever get the feeling that this year is going to be a good one? Well I think this was my sign last night. Out on the track finishing up and the lovely reds could be seen with the naked eye. I love our night sky and some nights it's just extra special.

Christmas Eve was spent having a pony games session. Great fun was had by all.

Silver is loving annoying/playing with Jack. It's taken the boys a while to gel, bt they all seem to be having a great time recently.

I don't think Jack knew how to end the bitey face game with Silver as he is rather persistent. So he bit Hector so he would get involved and Jack could just leave quietly without being noticed.

16/12/2024

It's official we need a 6th boy on the track so that everyone has a partner for the bitey face game. Oh I do love watching the boys.

A sleepy pony kind of post. I love seeing the horses sleeping.
It was extra special seeing Jack sleeping with the big boys. He is doing so well learning to horse.

Trying to get a ride in, in-between jobs on the track. I was stalled by both Bertie and Drifter being asleep. I knew I could film and quick Drifter refusing to move video as let's face it, I know from experience if she doesn't want to be ridden she doesn't move! So I knew me asking her to get up wouldn't change her mind. Bertie would oblige me so I always try and let him sleep and not put my needs first. However Drifter does regularly refuse me and always puts her needs above mine (as she should) but I didn't expect Flo to get in on the action.
As you can see the end of the video confirms that we did the right thing having 2 tracks and splitting the mares and geldings. Flo is still in season and it's December!!!! That's crazy Flo!¡

Jack is just the right height and softness to rub your wet head on. Bertie can't understand why Jack doesn't like his new job description. I love watching the boys on the track.

After the horrific rain and wind last night I was worried the track would be soggy this morning. However the joys of a fully surfaced track is that at worst it gets wet, never muddy and the wet only hangs around for 48 hours. This morning is great to report that we didn't have enough rain for the track to get soggy as it's bone dry. But we will get some soggy days and I've included a post below from Jan last year showing the track at its worst. Bt this is only 1 small section of track. There are always lots of dry clean areas where we put hay on the occasional soggy days.

So far we have never had mud fever or any skin conditions which is great. Bt our horses still drive us mad rolling on the hill and getting a good covering of mud, which they clearly enjoy!! So they arnt missing out.

So August 23 is when the lovely Hector arrived there was a lot of him to love ❤️ there is now much less. I love seeing these improvements. We can't wait until our next weigh in date to put some figures to these photos. He is a highland and late cut stallion so I was assured he would never lose his cresty neck... It's still there but getting smaller we are hoping with riding and schooling it will change from a cresty neck to a neck with top line.

The mares having a blast this morning for no apparent reason.

Evening checks on the horses before the "snow" and rain due over night and a bit of quiet time with Arthur.

I've recently been re-evaluating my horses diets with Jen from Equinutrition and she asked for some updated pics. So the light chestnut (July 22) are the first pics I sent her. Dark chestnut are the ones sent last week of Bertie. Now over the last few years his competition results have improved... But I think ull all agree his body might have changed slightly to make that happen too. Thanks Jen for your help, putting and keeping weight on a picky eater is hard. Bt track life really does suit him and I think these pics show that too.

Remember we have a featured post with all our comparison pics and I've linked it below.

I did wonder if the mares would continue to use just 1 shelter or both.... I think these pics show they still use both really well despite them being apart and in different areas of the track.

The mares are loving their temporary water feature. #playingintherain #trackliveryeastyorkshire #tracklivery #splash

So from previous years we know where the boy track floods. It doesn't look great bt we also know it does hang around long. And it's only water. It doesn't get muddy the horses have a choice not to use that section of track but due to the fall of the field this area will always flood. There are often other puddles on the boy track bt we will regularly see the boys using their temporary water feature. #trackliveryeastyorkshire #tracklivery #flooding #rainyday #raining #whereisthewater

How is our mare track coping with the recent heavy rain? This is the first main winter test for this track so let's see how it copes. At the beginning of the week we had torrential rain for about 2 days. So we can't expect no flooding or puddling. But I'm really happy with how it's coping and how little it's flooded. #trackliveryeastyorkshire #tracklivery #flooding #rainyday #raining #whereisthewater

What clips do we use on the track and why? I shall explain if you watch the whole video. #clipmyhorse #happyhorses #trackliveryeastyorkshire #tracklivery #naturalhair

Join me while I re-fresh the bedding in our newest mare shelter. Usually by the time I've finished I've been joined by at least 2 mares but this time it was only the dogs who helped me. We use soft chip from @snowflakeanimalbedding which along with our feed is delivered weekly by @bedding.barn #happyhorses #trackliveryeastyorkshire #tracklivery #christmas #christmas2024 #christmasbedding #newbedding #muckingout #muckingoutstables #muckingouthorses #muckoutwithme
