Hi, I bought my gelding riding pony (10 years old) a year and a half ago, and he was always very outgoing and friendly. But three months ago, we moved stables because we couldn't train at our old stable the way I'd like, and my pony always enjoys exercise. But he's changed a lot in…
I think it's the active stable system. The horses are outdoors a lot, have to run from point A to point B to get food or water, and are with other horses the whole time, or can wander off if they want some peace and quiet.
Hi, the question is probably pretty self-explanatory. Perhaps a few more questions for clarification: How would you describe the way your horse is kept? Are you personally satisfied with the way you keep them? What would be your personal ideal posture? To what extent can you realize your ideal in reality? To what extent are…
Would it be cool if everyone could write this down, stating how much your pony weighs and how long it takes for you to sell a normal Himalayan salt stone? My Isipony (approx. 300 kg) has now eaten away his stone (2.5 kg) within almost half a year.

Hey. I have a problem. I have a 2.5-year-old gelding (a baroque pinto). He's currently kept in an open stable, but it gets muddy with even the slightest rain. And he's never really dry. He recently started getting mud fever (the vet says he needs to be dry), and the mud has caused him a…
Hello dear ones, My question: What is your opinion on active stables or on keeping horses in open stables in general? Why would you want to keep a horse in an active stable? Why would you never put a horse in an active stable? I think keeping horses in open stables is great because they…
Hello to all riders! First of all, I'm sorry for asking so many questions about horses, but oh well. 😂 So here are a few questions for all those who have their own horse: Where do you keep your horse? Privately or in a stable? What's your setup? Self-catering or boarding stable? How long do…
