Just wondering what people prefer Stabled horses
Do you wash off when they come in or wait till dry then remove mud.

Wait till dry then brush off. Never wash mud of in the winter.
The mud won’t stick if you use a smear of pig oil starting at elbow and stifle. Use a bit of sponge and simply wipe downwards to hoof.
That is what happens here.Never wash off. Huge straw bed, let it dry and voila - virtually no mud left come morning
My guys all have plenty of hair on their legs, so I'm in the 'leave to dry' camp...
Pig oil spray sounds like a good idea though, does it stain white legs?
