I'm debating on the best way to be organised for not being at the horses at short notice (for Search and Rescue call outs). I have 3 professional grooms (all friends) on stand-by to do my mob but I want to make it as easy as possible for them as they all have their own horses and clients to take care of and as mine will be short notice they won't be able to mess about too much.
My routine in the morning is to put 2x 5kg 2" hole hay nets out, poo pick and open a fresh strip of grass (20-30 mins). And in the afternoon I make up 24 hours of nets (I weigh all the nets as I fill them as they're huge and easy to overfill, they could hold double or triple what's needed), put out 2x 1.5" hole nets with 2.5kg haylage and 5kg of hay in each, plus a 1" holed net with 5kg of haylage, give bucket feeds and I poo pick again (40-60 mins). Rugs are changed morning and evening depending on the forecast. The soaked part of their feed is always done as soon as the buckets are empty so it's ready for the next day. If I prep evening stuff, I can be done in 20 minutes.
