The Care of Horses • Plain wire fencing is fine if it is well-secured to strong wooden posts. Build the barn so the back wall faces the prevailing wind. A watering trough, supplied by a pipe, is better, but must be checked during winter weather. • Straw is a popular bedding choice because it is inexpensive.
The Care of Horses • Use rubber matting for a soft resting and standing surface. • Sweep, and then clean the floor with a stable disinfectant. Return the clean bedding to its place, then add fresh bedding material. • The natural oils in its coat help to keep your horse warm.
