Like and what do you hate?
I don't mind most things, I like mucking out and tack cleaning but I hate filling haynets from the big round bales it was quicker when we had small bales. Oh and hate trying to keep a grey clean.lol.

I find the thought of most jobs is far worse than the reality, and you can actually enjoy most things once you get started. I am however currently hating mucking out my deep litter pens from last winter a job I should have done through the summer but kept putting off. I used to love clipping but not so much now. although I love the results and always take a bit extra time to get a good finish. Funnily enough I quite enjoy doing haynets, but I may have changed my mind at the end of a winter with 4 boxes with 2-4 nets each each day! Thank God my pens now have feed rings for a big bale cos I used to have fill a dozen or so nets for each of them. I like changing rugs too, so my clipped ones never have the same rugs for inside and out like done Labour saving people do, I am a saddo and change New Zealands into lots of cost layers for night time with a cotton sheet, stripey woolly, thermatex and then one or two stable rugs. And just the right amount of stripey rug must show at the neck  I also enjoy making feeds up  |

I love making up feeds, a bit of this and a bit of that I don't mind doing stables but I hate poo picking the field - Davie's job! I'm not very good at being tidy but I do like it when I have had a good tidy up - doing that just now in the house I can't touch rugs that have sat for a while, they are always crawling with spiders cleaning tack is ok in front of the fire but not so good on the yard |

That's just weird!! I hate sweeping up!! Although, I do like the result! I'm with PD, hate mucking out deeplitter pens, although we do it with a bobcat, which is fun for the first one, then just gets boring, lol! My favourite job is feeding last thing at night, love it when all my animals are munching away contented, before I leave them for the night |

I enjoy pretty much everything. I probably dislike sweeping the most but I do like to look back on the yard and know that it looks so clean and tidy because of me I work on a yard part time though so it would really suck if I hated yard jobs  |

I'm another one who is allergic to hay - there seem to be a lot of us abut. Not too handy when you have three horses. I am lucky because my lovely OH fill all the haynets as he knows it just about kills me. If I have to do it myself,, e.g. if he is away on business, I have to wear a dust mask which feels horrible and probably scares the horses. |

I hate filling water buckets! I don't know why but it is just a job I find really tedious!
I love tidying up. Its so satisfying and I love how its possible to get very quick results. Though I hate all the spiders I tend to find. Its a job I hate doing at home, but at the yard its my favourite.

Without fail!!! |

I hate changing rugs, also hate people who don't clean up as they go along really don't see the point in making a mess and then having to do a huge sweep up why not sweep as you work lol.
I do Haylage nets not one of my favourite jobs I must admit but like everything if you take the attitude to just get it done then it is amazin how quickly it gets done, can't do hay nets as I am allergic but I will if I have to so that no horse is left with nothing just means I end up quite ill as a result.
I quite enjoy mucking out, again annoys me when people(staff especially) moan about doing it just get on with it then it is all done and the yard looks nice and the horses all happy = Happy Boss lol
