Hi All,
I have 2 Western and 3 English saddles and various other pieces of tack which are surplus to requirements.
I would like to swap for sheep, goats, geese, pigs, hens or any related equipment.
If livestock, I would  prefer rare breeds, but any considered really.
If anyone's interested I will post more details, sizes etc...
I also have a driving pony (currently on trial as a riding pony)
and a stunning coloured pba gelding for sale or swap...

Where are you?  And are any of your saddles extra extra wide (suitable for Fell or Dales ponies)?  What other tack do you have to swap?

I'm in Southampton, Hampshire. I'd be happy to post anything if economical to do so, and am willing to travel a fair distance for anything special (Golden Guernseys  :D )...
Sorry no, I did have one (English), but I gave it away as I couldn't bear to see a neighbour's flat-backed cob having to tolerate his much too narrow saddle! I will measure the old Western one though, it has fit all the horses it has been tried on, and been a great breaking saddle.
I have bridles, bits, numnahs and girths, fly rugs and fringes.
I also have an exercise cart...

Och, well you are very nearly as far from me in England as it's possible to get! 

I'm sure there'll be takers nearer to you - good luck!

OK, more specifically, I would like:
sheep (preferably shetland or jacobs)
goats (not pygmys)
pigs (preferably berkshire, gos, tamworth, or iron-age)
or poultry
or a horse or livestock trailer, pig arks, chicken coops etc etc.
 :wave:
