I watch a lot of harness videos and this is one of the best I have seen. Thank you!

[@hitchinfarm]

No worries glad we could help!

[@janellroehr4142]

I'm super new to driving. It'd not very popular where I am in the USA. You seem quite knowledgeable. Thx for the detailed video. ❤😊

[@hitchinfarm]

No problem! Any questions feel free to ask

Very useful! My first pony was a miniature and I imported a harness made by Armish because it was the only way to get one small enough. Still not got a collar... Been thinking about it

[@thomasmadsenhanks8335]

Hello Fiona how are you😊

[@janetnorris6131]

Great video. Thank you

[@hitchinfarm]

Glad you liked it!

[@jacksg1809]

Yeah I enjoyed it too ,very informative thanks

[@hitchinfarm]

Thanks ☺️

[@SocialShires]

I really like the broller

[@hitchinfarm]

Yeah they are really nice ones, best we've seen

[@SocialShires]

@@hitchinfarm But I do see the point of the american/amish harnesses. Very fast to put on or remove. In my case, easier to find too . Anything for a gelding/stallion of a smaller specie would work.

[@hitchinfarm]

@@SocialShires check out chimacum, they do a whole range of sizes and types of harness

[@DarrylElliott-fu4kh]

Hello where could I buy your clip/swivel setup that you use to attach to your neck yok. I use the regular snap clip the harness comes with and tape it every time. I really like your set up

[@hitchinfarm]

It's a swivel locking caribena, they are available on amazon if you buy the climbing ones they are strong enough. But they don't last more than about 12 months

[@hitchinfarm]

You are welcome! Glad you are enjoying them!!

Hi Mike. Thanks for sharing, your video is unique. Could you recommend the brand of Amish full collar harness you use and where to get it? Greetings from Ecuador.

[@hitchinfarm]

Aaron Martin ship internationally from Canada, that might be the easiest for you. Ours are field collars which is probably the cheapest option.

[@juanortizyepez7253]

​@@hitchinfarm Awesome! Thank you Mike;)

[@janellroehr4142]

Can u tell me why u shave ur horses belly? I'm very new to horses.

[@hitchinfarm]

It's to help keep them cool while they are working. Our winters rarely see snow now and are quite mild.

[@whistlebare]

If you had a slightly lighter weight horse would you tend towards a brollar rather than the heavier collar and hames?

[@hitchinfarm]

If the intention is to stick to lighter work then yes
