Right on time

With so many ponies to exercise, school work to do and vlogs to film, as well as downtime and seeing my friends – I have to save time wherever possible, otherwise I’d be exhausted and just wouldn’t get everything done!

While it’s important not to overlook or rush the important tasks, such as checking your pony over or warming up, there are ways to make better use of your time. Check out my tips!

Batch cooking

Making haynets can be such a chore, not to mention messy! But by dedicating time to filling a whole load of nets at the start of the week, you’ll save precious minutes each day. You can also make a batch of bucket feeds, either into spare bowls or sandwich bags, so meals are ready when needed – just don’t add any liquid until you’re using them so they don’t go sour or mouldy.

Quick flick

If your pony comes in from the field covered in mud and you’re desperate to ride, why not just groom the areas where his tack will sit? Although it’s nice to have a clean pony, it’s not essential to have him sparkling every time. Just make sure you check him over carefully and then give him a thorough groom the next day.
