How much grass and hay for a Shetland pony?
So, I'd like to get two Shetlands: a yearling that I'll train myself, and a fully trained Shetland pony that I'll then exercise with. Now, I'm wondering how long the Shetlands should stay in the pasture, and how much hay I should distribute? Now, to the paddock. Our stable is in our backyard, and my question is, how long should the Shetlands stay in the meadow? You should know that the meadow has very short grass, and as long as there are no ponies there, everything is mowed with an electric lawnmower, so they don't have much of a chance of actually eating that much. 🙂
Garden ( meadow) concrete and green paint, enough and they become fat like the ton!
Non-eatable background, which passes through little green (naturally remove gift plants) and hay portions 6 to 8 times a day. Not as desired by the small vacuum cleaners!
Be careful with the grass mix, which are completely different for lawn and pasture. Grass mixes for Shettys must be mixed and are quite expensive.
Please take into account the small-format monsters, have especially one, a thick skull and without employment just shit in the brain. They rebuild the pastures until they can break into Fort Knox themselves, better than James Bond. Rumors say they can beam through fences. Just when you put them on a diet.
Forming Shettys? You did something. Warm blossoms, full blossoms, there’s no way to go.
Better buy real Shettys from a certified breeding and let someone train them with a heart for small terrorists, then some of the small cold blossoms really fun!
Just try to push.
Every animal is different, so flat is difficult to say.
My Shetty Stute can crush crowds and always has a good figure, my Pottok Wallach looks at the grass only and gets fat😂
Thank you! ☺️
you have no idea of eating horses. I’ve been having horses for ages. BUT I wouldn’t trust me to hold a Shetty. I know too many shetties that have deer.
So they don’t have such a big chance really eat so much. :
Short grass is much more dangerous than long grass.
Of course I have the idea of eating horses:) We own 4 pieces of all warm-blooded.. I just don’t know what shetty’s diet because I didn’t really deal with the diet and that are much more susceptible to diseases and deer, unlike horses, and you have to pay attention to what you feed 🙂
I’ll tell you. Before I get a Shetty, I’d make a feed consultation first.
Next week we make a feed consultation, just wanted to inform me.
a yearling belongs to a breeding group with the same age.
otherwise the result is always a socialization cripple.
I don’t mean a yearling, but a three-year-old put me wrong
it is forbidden to ask to change content afterwards.
ponys shouldn’t be on one. the grass there is partly poisonous and horses need about 52 different grasses and crusts.
Besides, you can’t buy ponys because you’re underage and you can’t just keep horses in the garden.
according to your description it is shave, no meadow and yes – that is relevant.
And I can’t buy ponies, but my parents plus uncles are as if I hadn’t talked to them
So I can change already, as I have said wrongly, we have a “Garden” 5 minutes walk away from our house, better said a meadow with stable.. we bought a few years ago, there were until recently our other 4 horses, which are there soon to be pulled back and moved because of reconstruction. So it is not just a normal meadow but a STALL with meadow
I don’t know a pony that doesn’t get fat with meadow and hay ad lib. Therefore, I would recommend serving hay and grass. You have to get to know what’s good and when it gets too much.
