I am having a heck of a time trimming, physically. He is heavy and there is a lot of growth to keep up with. I picked up some nippers, but they were so dull I could not make a dent in his walls, so returned them. I am feeling confident and want to move them back, I can see where they need to go, I just have no means to get them there.
I am going to have to have someone come in and get them caught up.
I need a good set of tools and a strong body if I am going to keep up with trimming 2 horses! I did get leather gloves finally. I have some permanent scars on the left hand thumb and index finger knuckles!
Got a crummy batch of Timothy, first cut, rather coarse. He is a bit loose and that makes me worry about the effect on his feet. Waiting for more to come out of Washington and adding more Timothy / Alfalfa cubes to reduce the hay and balance him out. This seems to firm him up a bit, but not perfect. He still seems a bit "off".
