Posts Tagged ‘Cold In The Winter’
We are moving from California where my horse doesn’t need to be blanketed to a climate where it gets very cold in the winter, sometimes below zero. We’ve never lived anywhere this cold. I believe she will acclimate, but for this first winter I want to keep her warm.
Any suggestions on what type of blanket I need to purchase? Brands? Types? What do I need to look for? She will not be in a barn, only have a basic covered stall.
I am getting a horse and she cribs so she is being put on full field board. i was wondering if she needed a blanket. and if so, should i get her a turnout, and a sheet?
She is a 6 y/o TB mare. there are other horses in her field. I’m not sure if im going to keep her clipped during the winter or not. probablty not though.
where i live it sometimes gets cold in the winter i think the coldest ive experienced is maybe 16 f bbuut that was during a blizzard in the middle of winter.
