I rarely give em treats myself, we get apple wafers from the feed supplier, my co-worker used to give em out a lot more than I. I guess I'm old school, half the crap out there today, we never had when I was a kid. I use em as a reward, just as I put em to work if they act up so they associate certain behavior with certain things. I have to say that it works well, because they're all pleasant to deal with and we try to keep em happy. Moderation.
Feed is something I don't take lightly and keep a watchful eye on, (I might even be paranoid about it LOL) don't come to my barn and think you can do as you like, feed what you like, ever. Its that simple. Long time friends or former students, (this place has been around a long time)know the deal, occasionally some bring carrots, apples, but are fed moderately, when one of us is present. I insist on that vehemently, cross me and I'll throw you off the premises without hesitation, which I have done once since I've worked there. We have enough trouble keeping an eye out for moldy hay or feed which I have seen at times, well the roof springs a new leak over the hay and or the darned feed supplier giving me bags that had to much moisture and it molds after opened. You can never let your guard down on feed, anyone who is hired is implored to do the same, and is why you don't come to our place and feed anything without us knowing. Mind you we are friendly and sociable people. Another thing is restricted diets, medications and the like, someone comes and feeds something they should not have to a horse that has special needs or same, are they going to the feed room, checking the dry erase board, the card on the stall, you don't know that, and is why you can't have people doing this. I am repeating myself here LOL !
We have a few apple trees in the stallions paddock, he does not mess with them, but we do remove as many as possible, on the ground or within reach to be safe.

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
