Seringes, tips or caps, may be from meds, vaccines, wormer, irrigating or cleaning a wound, but whatever the reason, i always regret having them if one falls out in public.

Hay, running low on hay, I swear there is a bale or two hidden in my jacket, i'm always finding pieces

Twine

Treats

Screws, lots of screws from barn projects, can't find screws for a project, everyone knows to search my barn jackets

Rubber gloves

Spare snap clips

All the time, a pocket knife. Otherwise, you'll find an assortment at different times; baling twine, hay (of course), treats, rubber gloves, syringes, light winter gloves, screwdriver...

I don't have a barn jacket, but several sets of coveralls I always wear when with the horses. In one pocket is always animal crackers(treats for horses, chickens,& bunny), one pocket has dog biscuts to shut up the neighbors dogs, another pocket has my cigs & lighter, and in the winter other pockets have a small spray bottle of alcohol to unfreeze latches and gloves. Most everything else I would need is handy in the stalls already.

Kleenex in one, but hay in all.... I ALWAYS have bits of hay and alfalfa in my pockets!

Occasionally tooth caps I find, sometimes a pretty rock. My pocket knife is always in my jeans pocket. Sometimes syinge caps and dewormer caps.

Besides my pockets being unintentionally full of hay I carry mini cubes for treats. I also have my car keys so I can hit the emergency button to make the horn go off just in case I get injured or become a criminal's target while my husband is inside the house.

Hay, hay and more hay..... I obviously need to start carting some baling twine with me so I can bundle all the HAY that's in my pockets. Bet I'd have a full bale by weeks end. LOL
