I just do not know what to do for my horse. He eats ALL of his bed, and I come in to find him lying on the floor and covered in ***** in the morning. Shavings are not an option, and He has enough hay to keep him going, infact, he is on the rather plump side..
Is there any way I can stop him doing this ? He eats the whole bed and there is nothing but poo in the morning. It may not harm him THAT much (Although he does eat a whole stable full..), but I hate seeing him covered in wee and poo in the morning and of course knowing he's lying down in it. It is also a very dirty and long task do get him clean enough to be tacked up.
Is there anything out there that I can spray on his straw maybe to stop him eating it? I don't mind him eating a little, but compared to our other horses it's incredible, it's not 2 or 3 bites here and there like the others but the whole lot.
Thanks for any replies..
