Questions & Answers

Is it possible to buy a miniature horse?

Yes, the miniature size is in stock and ready to ship right away.

What is uv protection and how does it work?

It has a UV Protection of 80% UV Protection of 80% UV Protection

What size donkey should I get for my regular donkey?

I'd recommend the mule sizes if you're looking for something to cover your ears. Your donkey will not be able to wear the horse's ears because they are too big. The ears on all of the mule sizes are 13 inches long. On Cashel's page, there's a chart with measuring instructions and a diagram showing you exactly where to measure, but Amazon won't let me link to it here. There are three different measurements available. 1) all over the face and in the middle of the jaw. 2) 2" behind ears down to mid jaw on opposite side; 3) between ears (poll) down center of face to mid nostril 1)28 2)40 3)26 is the average horse's size. It also states that due to the adjustable closure, measurement 1 has a 4" variance. br>br>I hope this information is useful! Stacey at Coolhorse br>br>

Is it possible to wear this over a bridle?

Yes, I've turned my horse out with it over his halter because it was rubbing him under the chin, despite the fact that I've never ridden with it on. There should be enough room to adjust it to fit over a bridle, in my opinion.

Selected User Reviews For Cashel Crusader Long Nose Fly Mask with Ears

It's a big one, with a lot of sun coverage and a lot of sturdiness
4/5

Even on my 1/2 draft, the sizes are large. My boy is tough on his clothes, so it has to be durable. It stands the test of time. The single/low chin closure irritates me because he can take the mask off every other day or so. The closure is well-knit, but it's far enough down that he can undo it. The nose coverage is ideal for the scorching Florida sun, as it protects him from sunburns. The ear material is gentle and allows air to circulate. It does a good job of staying out of the way of the eyes, but it isn't perfect. He is able to eat and drink without difficulty. It appears that your vision is clear. He isn't bothered by the fact that he has to wear it.

This is the only mask I purchase
5/5

I tried every type of mask from $15 to $250, which was, by the way, the worst and most expensive ripped in Day, and what a company attitude! Cashel can be relied on at all times. Perfect fit stays on for the most part, but he will occasionally come off during a good tree itching session. My horse requires a mask all year for Headshaking Syndrome, Pollen Sensitivity, and Sun Exposure, among other things. He will put his head down and say, "Yup, Mom, put it on please. " They have a long shelf life. Extremely long lasting. The best company, the best mask, and the most comfortable mask. Most importantly, it works wonderfully and effectively against pollen, the sun, the wind, and, of course, those pesky flies! They have a long nose, ears, and a forelock opening, which I really like. The closure is extremely secure. At the same time, if an emergency arises, he can exit the vehicle. There are a variety of styles from which to choose.

It's possible that the nosepiece will irritate you even more than the flies
3/5

My mare should have appreciated the effort and expense it took to free her from the torment of flies and the dangers of the hot Florida sun in theory. She was not one of them. She couldn't stand wearing the nosepiece because it was too long and stiff. I removed the nosepiece with care, as requested by Her Royal Mareness. It was acceptable (in HRM's opinion). The tips of the ear fabric have frayed and come unsewn after about a month of wearing it. As a result of this, the so-called as a result of which, quality rating.

Runs big
3/5

My horses were all measured, and the last one was enormous. Even my horse, who has a large head, was too big for the horse size. The ears are also made of soft mesh, which they probably like, but which ripped after only three weeks. The face mesh is tough plastic, but the nose part still hangs an inch below their noses, causing it to graze and ball up. Condensation also creates mud patches around their nostrils. It is not the fault of Cashels, but rather a design flaw.

The nosepiece isn't something I'd order again, but the fly masks themselves are excellent
3/5

My horse and his favorite playmate both had one of these on, and on the first day, they ripped each other's noses off in the paddock. This brand of fly masks is one of my favorites, and the one that has ripped is still functional until I replace it; However, I'm going to order my next one without the nose piece in case there's a mischievous herd. Also, I always lose my fly masks in the paddock, but I can hose them down and put them back on if necessary. If they do come off, they seem to fry quickly and do not appear to fly away in the wind. They serve their purpose admirably, and the forelock hole is particularly appealing.

Durable
5/5

Our rescue dog lost all of the hair on his white blaze due to severe sunburn and UV sensitivity, so we've been using this for a few months. It lasts a long time and has been used as a turnout for several months. He's in the fourteenth grade. This is a 2h QH with a lot of space. We even turn the nose up a notch so it doesn't get in the way while he's grazing.

My gelding will only wear this fly mask
5/5

This is the second time I've bought this mask for my mare, and I've always enjoyed it. This Spring, I have been using two different fly masks on my Gelding. He takes it off as soon as I turn my back on him, just minutes after I put it on him. He wears the Cashel Crusader mask all the time. It is a good fit for him. And he must like it because he isn't rubbing his face against the corral bars to get rid of it. Success! br>I'd be thrilled if this mask included sunscreen because I have a light-colored horse with pink skin. He takes a few minutes to remove the sunscreen mask I'm wearing.

Protection from the sun and insects
5/5

The size is a little on the large side. This is a fantastic mask! It's for my horse who has a lot of white on his nose, so I got it for him. Every summer, he gets a tan. He has never attempted to remove a mask before. It is larger than average horse size, as other reviewers have stated, but I was able to cut the velcro tabs to make it more snug. There isn't any issue. Try the smaller one if your horse's head is average or smaller. Because my quarterhorse's head is blocky, the straps only needed a minor adjustment.
