When your team is trained, you can drive them and let them pull the manure spreader. It will be more fun! As far a team work, we are just wet behind the ears... I am not expert.. but we do find that for non show events, the un matched pairs will work out. It is amazing how adaptable the equine really is. Be sure to use the correct equipment and adjust the lines according to the needs of your horses. The only time we have had problems was using too short of poles. Equine just do not like getting hit in the hocks with the wagon (or whatever you are pulling). ADS has charts for the size equine and what size your shafts and poles should be. Holiday Cheer... I am trying to get into the holiday spirit and will start decorating the front entrance way of our farm. Question(s) to everyone? Do you decorate your barn / stalls ? If you do tell us how do you decorate them. When I managed at a hunter/jumper barn, we when all out with each horse getting a stocking... Catherine Lassesen Southern Oregon
