When are going to leave your horses out?

[Supertrooper]

As title. Those with horses stabled over winter at night when do you start leaving them out 24hrs?

 

[Vikki89]

Usually end of April/begining of May depending on the weather, if it is good weather they may go out earlier but i can't see that happening this year.

End April usually, but, depending on grass etc ponies might stay in at night all year round due to me always on lami watch!! plus muzzles.

End of April, beginning of May usually. They usually get turned out 24/7 on Badminton weekend, but grass is soooooo slow coming through this year! Nothing seems to be growing here, even the trees are still bare. Is it the same everywhere or just in Wales?

Some are going out tonight, G will go out next Sunday.

Ours went out weeks ago! It's bliss!

last year at the livery yard I was at it was around the second week in April. It all depends on the weather, the ground and if there's any grass comng through.

 

[nemlin]

Already out, have been for about a fortnight now. Although they are still coming in when the weather is really rubbish (but only to save the fields)

 

[ladyt25]

Ours have been out for about 3 weeks now, although 2 are out 24/7 anyway. Sooo don't miss early morning mucking out!

Was just wondering. I've left my friends veteran pony
out tonight, well rugged up as she is very reluctant to come in now there is nice tasty spring grass! She'll be coming back in tomorrow though as going to get cold again next week.

Mine were out last friday (for 1 night!) then we had heavy rain all week, they went out again last night and unless things are really bad - they'll stay there. They both have rugs and I put half a bale of hay out each night too.
