Really tough feeders. My drafts play football with it everyday and I don't mean just passing the ball. I mean kick for the field goal type stuff! Not uncommon to see that thing sailing through the air. It definitely isn't as pretty as the website after two years of abuse, but there are no cracks or chips at all. The only maintenance I have done besides wash it with the hose is filing off some tooth marks on the grid. Best money I ever spent. Actually, my DH & I were having a conversation last night about buying a second one for the big field.

The natural feeder sounds interesting. Are they tough enough to withstand the pawing?

Going Greyhound can definitely change you. You'll either have an interesting time people-watching and filing away stories to tell at social gatherings or you'll be so traumatized you'll need therapy...

Get yourself a copy of Draft Horses: An Owner's Manual by Dr. Beth Valentine. Good info on feeding drafts.

64 in north Alabama. I love the cold and we don't have nearly enough of it to suit me. Of course, my DH nearly has to be resuscitated everytime I say something like that.

The worst thing is...urinating. They can drill holes with those water cannons! The best thing is.....everything else but especially getting a huge furry draft hug!

That exactly. I grow more shocked and horrified by it everyday.:cry:

Yeah, I knew about the iodine. Nothing works like 7% for sheep navels. The main ingredient in the Thrush-XX is copper naphthenate and I understood the primary uses of that (other than hooves) to be...
