Team Mare here:) I have both but there is nothing better than a good mare!

Team Mare 🔴 or Team Gelding 🟢?

Comment below! 👇🐴 Save this if you're choosing your next horse! Follow Hoof Hacks for daily equine tips!

Both can become incredible partners, but their personalities often shine in different ways. Some riders love the deep emotional bond and intelligence of mares, while others prefer the calm, consistent nature of geldings.

At the end of the day, science shows there’s no guaranteed “better” choice — the right horse is the one that matches your personality, experience, and goals.

Do you prefer the strong-minded partnership of a mare… or the steady reliability of a gelding? Tell us why below!

I don't like riding alone. Got a little bit of PTSD from my wreck on Mulligan IYKYK, but I put my big girl panties on and everybody got worked today!

That shine is new this year and due to 100% cold pressed Camelina Oil!
You don't have to get the more expensive one that has a horse on the label, as long as you get organic 100% cold pressed. All three of mine have been on it a year and they are all three slick and shiny. If you do your research, it's better than all the other oils. It has a better balance of omega-3/omega -6 fatty acids, has a better shelflife, horses seem to like it more and it also is rich in vitamin E.

Don't look too close, fly sheets are secured with bailing twine, carabiners, zip ties, and any number of securing devices I can find around the farm! When they tear up the ears on the fly masks, I simply cut them out, same with the long sunblocking muzzle piece! I insist that sheets last at least 2 years.

Are your toddlers tough on things??🤪

Feed Question?

What is your favorite way of putting weight on a healthy senior horse? I have a 29-year-old Appaloosa that has never been too thin but came out of winter thinner than normal.
Does not have cushings, ulcers, just dewormed, teeth are OK  and was on cool calories chopped alfalfa, senior feed and Camelina oil all winter with free choice Hay.

Considering Amplify,  , switching to triple crown Senior, beet pulp??

Thoughts?

 What is your go to fattening up program?
