Re: Harness question
This message is from: Amy Evers Not too sure what you mean by "yoke style" harness Breast collar style harness can be used for both pleasure carts like a meadowbrook and for competition style carts such as Bell Crown or Pacific Carriage, etc. You can also get neck collar harness made for driving (as opposed to draft work) that is also suitable for both pleasure and CDE. Work type collar harness is NOT suitable for CDE no matter what kind of vehicle you use. A Neck Yoke is used for pairs with both kinds of harness unless you have a vehicle that uses straps that connect to a "crab" on the pole.

We have serious terrain rock hill mud here and the meadowbrook barely holds together ;) Tonja Acker-Richards Pond House Farm Important FjordHorse List Links: Subscription Management: http://tinyurl.com/5msa7e FH-L Archives: http://tinyurl.com/rcepw Classified Ads: http://tinyurl.com/5b5g2f
Thanks for help filly integration
This message is from: Tonja Acker-Richards Thanks for the help with filly integration question. We bought my geldings Nick and Ikes mother Raspotniks Caspian and low and behold she came with a nursing filly who we will name Chamois ...for obvious reasons if you've ever felt a baby fjord or a shammy cloth. We've cycled all the boys, and the fillys half sister Tekla in one at a time with no events. Keeping them seperate herds for evenings until fall. Our hills are taking off some of the baby fat ... On the momma... too! In the discussion about thunder, stalls runouts etc I want to add hill time, roots stumps and all make for fit steady footed animals. I think there are risks to all livestock keeping methods. Even kid keeping!
