Just a musing really.
The majority of the horses at our yard have been out 24/7 for a couple of weeks now, and most of them seem to be lacking in a bit of sparkle.
My gelding is usually quite a forward responsive little chap, and now he seems to be happier to drop down a gear which he didn't used to. As far as I can tell, he is fine in himself health wise etc. Perhaps I am being a bit paranoid?
Speaking to a few girls at the yard and they have said the same thing about their horses as well.
I can't recall this response last spring, is anyone else having the same problem?
I was thinking that perhaps as they are all down to having one feed a day instead of two this could be the reason.
