Four horses wintered out this year on my yard. They were in a field with good shelter, a field shelter, and of course ad lib haylage in the form of big round bale replaced every few days.

Donkey is naked today!!!!!! Now roll for me and get that wooley top coat out!!!!!!
She will not go out 24/7 at all - but seems very contented to come in during the day in the summer.
Now I do have to face a day of cleaning a large deep littered stable out!

We have had 5 out 24/7 this winter with round bales of hay replaced when they ran out. And we have a decent arena
Sorry

Mine are usually out 24/7 during the winter, but this year it was so wet I decided to keep them in a night as we only have a small acreage and didn't want it to get totally trashed. So they were in for the grazing's protection not their own! They all cope well outside and my old 7/8 TB mare definitely prefers it that way.

Ours are not allowed out yet, otherwise they would be! Though our area is due for rain tomorrow & not sure what the temperture is doing.

Just because she doesnt poo pick doesnt mean she doesnt care about her horse! Twenty acres is huge and from my experience of keeping my horses in a twenty acre field, it doesnt make much difference if you poo pick or not, theres tonnes of grass anyway! Ive never poo picked any field that my horses have been in and they are all very healthy, happy animals!

Oh bliss.
Been mucking out since September, horses were in from December until 3 wks ago 24/7
now out during the day mucking out is only taking 30 minutes to do 4 horses (although one lives in 24/7 regardless).
Think they will be turned out full time end of April. HOwever, i have a feeling my little warmblood will protest! as he loves coming in, and Winston needs to come in during teh summer really due to his ever expanding waste line.... arghhh I DONT WANT TO SEE STRAW BEDS for at least 4 months lol

Ours live in all year round. Inner city stables...ooooh the joys!
Guess I can't complain though as I don't actually do the mucking out.
