Horse Chick♥

and what sort of person would suit the job?

so my standy chomps at the bit (its an eggbut snaffle), as soon as its in her mouth and all while im riding her, her teeth are fine and she's on magnesium to help calm her down, would changing her bit stop her from chomping, like a copper roller bit or something? what do you suggest i do? i have a loose ring snaffle at home and a french link snaffle, would one of them help keep her from chomping? she listens to me and she's responsive, but i dont really want her to chomp at the bit

so my mare gets really forward when i jump her or canter her, and sometime even trotting. I can handle her, but if i have to dismount for something, she starts moving before i'm on, and i actually went straight over her once (embarrassing lol)

I use an eggbutt snaffle, and i know she needs her teeth & feet done, but my dad has been in & out of hospital a lot lately so mum says we can't until dad's better (he's wheelchair bound and has a lot of health problems)

so what can i do when she gets forward? is there any exercises i can do with her? i do a lot of flatwork, i don't jump her all the time

and if you're going to suggest using a harsher bit or putting side reins on her etc. i don't want to hear it

have you ever worn acryllic nails while horse riding? my nails are really short and i have a bad habit of biting them, so im thinking of getting acryllics, but would they effect my riding or would they hurt if they snap off? what would you do?

google isn't much help -.- any links to the sites you found the information on would be greatly appreciated :)

I'm doing a project for school, and I can't find on google where Thailands name originated from, any information and links would be greatly appreciated (:

how can i improve, like with my jumping position? any tips?

My mare is called Ruby, she's a dark bay 14.3hh standardbred (:

What do you do with your horse during winter? right now I'm spelling Ruby for a while, but when I'm planing to bring her back into work it's still going to be winter. Right now she's in a 40-acre paddock near my house, so i don't have access to arenas etc. so it's gonna be really muddy, what can i do to bring her back into work?

i was told awhile ago, but i can't really remember. i wormed her about a month ago so when should i worm her next? what would be a good worming schedule thing?

i have a syd hill & sons GP saddle that i don't use, it doesn't fit my mare so i want to sell it, and i want some money to buy things for her and to spoil her (: , i bought it off my friend for $400 and she said cos it's a syd hill she would have sold it for more, but she sold it to me cheap. the saddle is in good condition, and really comfy. how much would you pay for a syd hill saddle? could i sell it for $400 or abit more?

i think they're amazing (:

whenever it laid eggs, it kicked them out of the nesting box? i have an albino budgie, she has a partner but whenever she lays eggs she kicks them out a few days later. she's in a seperate cage to my other budgie. why would she be doing this? do you have or ever had a budgie that does that?

I don't mean storebought treats, i mean things like fruits, vegetables etc.

just wondering so i can see what i can spoil my horse with :)

:P
