Quick PSA for this very cold morning. If you didn't already know, YOUR HORSES SHOULD BE OUTSIDE. Yeah, it's cold. It sucks to turn them out. But, they WANT to b...e out. Their gut health is better. Their mental health is better. Their joint and muscle health is better. And yet, I'm seeing fewer and fewer barns offering adequate turnout. And I literally cannot fathom why. When your horses are out (with hay, water and with friends) we already know they are healthier animals. But from a barn owner perspective, my stalls stay cleaner, my bedding costs are down, and I have happier stall cleaners. So why aren't horses getting turned out? It's a real question. I'm actually looking for an answer. Why are so many barns (and horse owners!) ignoring a massive factor in maintaining healthy horses? (Picture for attention. This is Lites, my 27 year old retired TB. It's 12 degrees out and he is electing to be outside. His paddock is attached to his stall. Wind, rain, snow...this guy is out. So that should say something.) See more
