Weโ€™ve been making the most of the dry weather here at HQ, allowing our water splash to completely dry out! This lets us assess the footing and do any necessary maintenance, as well as checking for any lost property ๐Ÿ˜†
Itโ€™s now all refilled and looking super, available for hire all weekend ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐ŸŽ

Friday focusโ€ฆ.soaking mashes / beets in the warm weather!

A quick focus this week as I had 2 days doing essential CPD at the BETA Feed Conference, so lots of my own work to catch up on!

Something I see very regularly when I am out and about is mashes being soaked in bulk. Iโ€™m not talking about bulk for feeding a few horses for the day, I mean the mash / beet pulp being soaked in bulk for 1 horse, so a few days worth at a time.

Mashes and beet pulps sour quickly, particularly in warm weather which we are currently having here in the U.K. The souring / fermenting of mashes can produce moulds, increase the risk of digestive upset and it makes it very unpalatable for your horse, so they will not be getting their essential nutrients if they are not eating all of their feeds; assuming you feed a balancer, vitamin and mineral supplement or balanced compound feed.

Souring beet pulps and mashes will have a vinegar type odour to them, they can be slimy and the colour will be different to when they are freshly soaked.

To ensure you are feeding fresh, either get a quick soaking mash or beet pulp that you can soak directly before feeding, or at the most, soak in the morning for use at night or overnight for use in the morning. Soaking out of direct sunlight and preferably somewhere cool will help keep your mashes fresh.

My feed room is wooden, so not very cool at all in the heat, so I soak my mashes for no more than 12 hours. If it is really warm, I have been known to take unsoaked mash and the correct quantity of water out with me for the day and just before I leave my last client, I add the water, so it can soak on the way homeโ€ฆsad, know! Just make sure you have a tightly fitting lid on your beet container if you wish to do this!!

We love a boot camp glow up! ๐Ÿช„
This gorgeous girl had thoroughly enjoyed an 18 month break, and came to us to get back into work. She was with us for 6 weeks to get back to a good base level of fitness & lose a few lbs and was happily riding away again before heading home.
Typically we forgot to take a โ€˜beforeโ€™ photo, but we think you can still see plenty of difference in this 4 week comparison! ๐Ÿ“ธ ๐ŸŽ

We just love seeing people enjoying our facilities, especially with such glowing feedback!
We almost always have an Arena Eventing style course available to hire, just pop us a message to book ๐ŸŽ

Nearly a fortnight ago, the big lad and I went and hired Ashtree Equine Rehabilitation & Livery arena with my friend Laura and her baby ex racer Tarzan (I call him Legs).

The course that was set up was great and the arena was freshly harrowed ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿผ
I've been coming to this arena for over 10 years now and always had great fun!

They have show jumps and XC fences along with a bit of water, steps and ditches.

It was great to leave the ground again and Eamonn enjoyed himself too.

Simply adore him and the fun we're having.

Happy hump day all!
