About Eggbutt Snaffle Bits
Eggbutts are the simplest and most common type of bit available, and a great place to start for all horses. It is generally s good approach to start with simple bits like this and move to something more complex if you need to.
Bi-metal bts contain two different metals and encurage salivation in the horses mouth which can help the horse to relax and respond better to the rider.
The basic structure of the snaffle bit will cause relatively little or no pain in the horse’s mouth, making it a good mix for those concerned about resistance.
Snaffle bits are soft acting and a good allround solution for most horses.
They come in a range of widths and should be sized so that they are just fractionally wider than your horses mouth.
They should sit high in the mouth so that the horses lips show a very slight "smile" from the bit sitting up against the corners of thier mouth.
