Re: [haflingerfriends] soiled tail/encrusted manure

You mentioned a fear of skin problems which leads me to think that she's got wet manure on her, uh, butt cheeks, so to speak. If so I wonder if vaseline would work well to protect her skin.

On the other hand, while that would protect her skin it could cause messiness of another kind. I don't know. I've never done this myself.

I'm not sure I understand the situation. Can you explain more?

Subject: [haflingerfriends] soiled tail/encrusted manure

My new mare Camryn came with not just a heavily soiled tail which I can deal with. Being as she's still getting used to me, (just came here Wed.) as much as I want to get it off, I hesitate to make our first few days painful. I'm afraid it has/will cause skin probs if I don't get it cleaned. Being it's winter I don't want to hose it.
Any ideas/thoughts would be appreciated,
Thanx all,Susan
