Have you considered a Nibblenet, or another type of hay net? If you got a batch of small mesh hay nets, you could fill them and leave them for board folks to hang up at feeding time. Gail I measured the lovely Gaven yesterday, and according to the weight tape, she's gained 50 lbs and lost 2 inches around her girth. Hmmm. I was in Ohio for 4 days last week (she got no exercise, though she did get hand-walked twice), and the snow has kept me away from the farm for 3 of the last 5 days (got some round-pen exercise and hand-walking on the 2 days I was out). She's very frustrated. Lots of head-slinging and stomping and pawing if she doesn't get fed fast enough, doesn't get let out fast enough, has to stand in the round pen / arena / hitching post for more than 2 minutes... And her board DOUBLED because of the extra maintenance required. Neither of us is happy. However, I'm committed to having her lose weight, so we're both gonna put on our big girl duds and deal with it. Robyn Kevlin I am sorry to inform you that you have a brain problem. Your brain is in 2 parts... left and right. The left part has nothing right in it and the right has nothing left in it. (Would love to be able to credit somebody for this - LMK if you know.)
