left their normally stabled at night horses out tonight?
or are we just mean?

We decided that the filly and the arthritic one could stay out all night tonight for the first time this year. Not long after making this decision it chucked it down

Oh well, hope it doesn't rain all night otherwise we are gonna be in trouble in the morning

Nope, ours have been out all night over winter.

Dont worry have left my boy out tonight as he has been getting very stiff being in so i have to be cruel to be kind

 

[brackenhappy]

i could only wish!!! yard i'm on your horse has to come in every night from end october till end of april!

As they are rugged? and well fed.... then not a problem...

Its what nature intended.... much better for them...

Our Welsh section A is so fat we are now leaving her out - she is like a massive woolly bear!!! she does have a dodgy leg so being out will help her... she isnt rugged either....

So do the rest of ours

It's only because one is broken and one is coming up 2yrs that they get to come in at night a month later and go out a month earlier

nope even broken ones come in :-( if you want winter turn out they go to the other fields up the road, only downside is you loose your stable if you do winter turnout :-( last winter if you paid for your stable you got to keep it but we have so many new people moved on and people wanting a space when one comes up! the YO has decided not to offer this option this year :-(

My usually stabled horses are back out 24/7 now, we dug out the stables when the weather started to come nice the other week because we couldnt catch them for love nor money. They wanted in though when it came frosty last week, not suprising since Indi came in with icicles attached to his whiskers. Back out now and loving it, only problem is yearling keeps climbing out of his rug like everyday so am afraid if it carrys on its staying off.
