Blinkers? Does anyone know where one would acquire blinkers?

You might try changing sides...Some times a horse doesn't want anyone on one
side and if you change sides...things might be ok.
Blinkers would be safer than a blindfold. Of course a divider in the trailer
that goes to the floor would be the safest.  But, if that is not possible...
you might try hobbles. There are many different kinds of hobbles, but one is
one hind foot to the opposite front foot...thus when she kicks she pulls her
own front foot.  But, practice that in the barn yard and not in the trailer.

 Subject: [BULK] [PAL] Blindfolds?


 One of my mares kicks at the other horse in our two-horse stock trailer
 (which has a manger). I put a curtain between their faces over the manger
up
 in front, which worked but only for a year. Now I'm thinking of
blindfolding
 the kicker when she's in the trailer.

 Any comments? In particular, any ideas about where to buy a blindfold or
 designs for a homemade one?
