The shoo fly leggins are working better for my girl, @Libby2563 ! I never added velcro (not surprising), but I did find the velcro “sweet spot” where I can attach them and they will stay put about 80% of the time.
Donkey did end up “donating” her hind ones to my nearly 16.2h warmblood who had some concerning white line stretching mid-summer. If anyone’s wondering, the yearling size will fit well enough to be sufficient on a huge horse, too. These things really do fit generously. The medium would probably be ideal for her when I finally get around to ordering her some. Next year all the horses will definitely get their own new sets of Shoo Flies as I replace my dead/dying Kensingtons that I’m trying to make last the rest of this season.
I’ve used the Pyranha in the past, but I have problems with the yellow bottle and the aerosol irritating the skin for all of my girls. I LOVE the blue bottle water-based formula, but I guess I’m the only one who did because they’ve stopped carrying it locally. They also make a green bottle “natural” Pyranha formula that smells like peppermint. I bought it once-- the first day, the donkey knocked the bottle off the stall door, chewed the lid off, and drank it off the floor! :eek:
