My boys bed is on concrete but where there is not bed i have put rubber matting down at the front and back! His stable is huge btw! Would you deep litter him over winter?
I have rubber all over the floor and paper on top so I don't need to deep litter. However, if it suits you to deep litter him, I'm sure it won't make any difference to him so long as you give him a really deep bed (probably appreciate it
), clean it out every week or so and keep it skipped out.
