Having a very clean stables is a good practice. I used to get told off for taking to long to clean the stables. But I used less shavings than the other groom's
Good point! You must be a good groom
That’s so useful. I have always picked up my poop by hand. I am now going to change and am going to buy a plastic fork and try not to break it. Thank you very much 😊
so glad it helped!
Fantastic demonstration for stall cleaning! I clean my stalls in much the same way. All your tips are spot on! Sweeping the wet spot and turning over the banks makes a big difference in keeping the shavings clean. Deep Bedding will retain heat and eventually mold if it’s not turned over and aerated.
I do lime the wet spots everyday. It not only dries but also neutralizes the smell of urine. Especially in the warmer, more humid weather using lime reduces the humidity in the stall caused by the urine.. makes a huge difference!
Yes! Couldn't agree more!
@@YourRidingSuccess
Wow, You are really dedicated to this channel aren’t you. You’ve answered all my questions, and acknowledged my comments… And in quite some detail!
Thank you for doing all this, I really appreciate you as a person. You’re actually kind of amazing!
Excellent! And true life speed, and even with stops talking etc. The whole vid is only 12 minutes. A true representation thank you!
Glad you liked it!
Love it! We use finer shavings at home, so sifting is much easier. At shows we always seem to get these flakey shavings, and we bed super deep. Either way, this will be a great resource for new stall cleaners or the ones lacking in technique.
It drives me crazy when people leave wet shavings and don't work up the bedding, including the edges.
I agree completely, you can always tell when wet shavings are left in the stall and as a cleaner, it is so much faster and easier if you do a good job, every day.
I would love to see Amy clean a whole stall, full speed!
100% Thanks for the feedback!

Idk why so many equestrians I've met hate cleaning the stables. Honestly I love it. I mean my back starts to hurt after 5 mins so bad that I wanna cry and I get bored after 15 mins but I still like to do it.
Us too! Alicia still cleans her own stables 2x a week! Did you see our completion to win a paid year learning o a PSG horse? x
Thanks! I'm going to share this one with my hubby, who "helps" do our stables daily & is way too thrifty with the shavings, leaving wet spots. This is simple, straight to point & I won't have to say "toldya so". Yay!
OH! let us know how that one goes! we are impressed you have your hubby helping with stables! YOU should do a video on that! lol xx
Ok I will...eventually.
I agree it's impressive that my old man is helping clean the stables, but the real reason is he feels guilty that he was partly why I quit show riding THIRTY years ago. He resented me spending all that money & time away from him. "how much for that new turnout saddle? Jeez I could buy a decent car for that!" he used to say,
It's only that our newish filly made my life feel whole again & he loves her as much as I do.
We HAD to build our little stable block in a hurry from nothing - we lost all our outbuildings on Black Saturday where we live in Kinglake - & the filly fractured her fetlock, had surgery & in plaster, with strict confinement ordered. So yeah he is cleaning out the stables he is proud he helped to build. We built wo stables coz we bought an aged mini ex broodmare as a companion/teacher for her. That's Gidget the Midget.
So, in a nutshell, it's his own bloody fault, innit? I'm kidding...sorta.
Now he prides himself on how well he packs a hay net. Heh.
I will make a vid tho!

So excited to watch this! Love everything you guys post.
Thanks so much!
I hope further segments cover more challenging stalls. Back when I was a stable hand there was one mare that seemed to pee sooo much, then she walked around and mixed that pee in reallll good. Soft poo got incorporated into the mess. Nightmare. And I wasn't supposed to remove all the bedding each time so it was a quandary how much I could get away with removing each time. Possibly there was something that could have helped, but I didn't have any authority - and honestly no ideas at that time even if I did.
We will feed that back to Alicia. and get her to cover it
Wow talk about variety is the spice of life. I’m am just mad for these new videos and I just want to come up with a suggestion for a video but I’m having so much fun I can’t keep my head straight. Please please keep them coming. 💜
thank you so much! xx
Wow! That was awesome. Great way to clean the stall and save money. Thank You! For this video.
PeaceAndLove
Lori
Thanks Lori! Tow more episodes to come! xx
Shared on Facebook!
Nancy Thank you! x
What's the story with the socks Alicia? 😅 you were born to do this. Even make watching 💩 enjoyable!
lol LOVE IT!!! that made us defiantly laugh out loud!!
The socks was an accident. Alicia wore odd sock accidenlty in the first video and people mentioned something.... so she kept it up! lol
Haha I noticed that too, but thought it was a quirky thing she did. To each their own!
@@amberrose7023 makes me feel better as I do it all the time because I can never find a pair... but as Alicias are always the same colour set I was curious as to whether it had some other significance... but its cool that it's just an inside joke!
I'm going for wood pellets this winter rather than shavings. Hoping for more cost effective and efficient mucking out so more time to ride.
Great point!
Dropping a little nugget of knowledge.. Awesome. Something so simple can change the way you Work In a positive way and that can set you up so you can invest in other areas xx
Absolutely!
this is so useful! thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful!
Brilliant vid, would you be able to do one that is a box walker?
oshhhh! YES they aren't easy! We will ask Alicia x
Lovely!
Glad you enjoyed it! Did you see our comp to win a paid year learning o a PSG horse? x
@@YourRidingSuccess No, I haven’t yet, but I will look into it! You can check out our channel if you would like, we have a range of videos, and more coming soon!
Amazing! Thankyou so much this helps so much 😍🐴
You're so welcome!
lots of love!! im excited for the video!!!
Thank you!
Thanks! Its very helpful!
Glad to hear that!
Omg I thought was the only one who sweeps the pee🤣🤣🤣
we're all in together! xx lol
Like it! PLz scale up volume , sounds a little low for me. Thanks loads
thanks is much, Noted!xx
my dream of mucking out!!! Unfortunately we use woodchip from a tree surgeon, so not so easy :(
Oh ours too!
I wish the people that own the stable where I work would let us do this. They are always in a hurry and won’t let us use the proper amount of shavings. Very frustrating.
Hi Misty, it can be frustrating but obviously cost etc comes into it for a lot of people, ideally the horses hygiene and comfort always come first! Good luck xx
That is how it's done. However,how do you deal with a horse that uses his stall as a race track?
Box walkers are not easy! Alicia said she will add a bit in the 3rd series for you to see
Give a hay net to keep him busy
Can you train a horse to wee and poo in just one spot? I tried pushing the shavings back because I was told that they won't pee in the matt area because of backsplash. It doesn't stop mine though....
Some horses that does work, but not as a rule. Really you cant dictate where they do their business...
How are you getting on with our subscribe to be in the draw to win comp? :-)
wonder what everyones time per stable is. i give 10 mins per stable which includes mucking out, new bedding, new water bucket, fresh haynet. having to muck out 30 stables in the winter by myself, i try to always keep to time! how long does it take you to do them? (takes me 20 mins to do my own horses at home tho!)
I can allow myself 30 mins (semi-retired & only 2 stables) giving me time to do quick feed & tack room tidy-ups. With so much rain & flooding lately (Nth Central Victoria) we've had a couple of wash-outs, so being able to allow extra time to fill nets, scrub out water bins & faff about is great for us. Thanks heaps.
I asked Alicia, she said cakes about 20min to do it well and not rush
@@YourRidingSuccess their bed looks pristine! When you get a good groom they’re worth their weight in gold! Thank you!
@@YourRidingSuccess Good to know! I used to worry I was taking too long.
We have 24 stables my manager says it should only take about 7 or 8 mins to do each stable.
😍😍
thank you!
Where is Natasha?
