This message is from: "Debby Stai" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I have several reasons why I don't like to feed round bales....especially if they just sit out in the weather and are not under cover....they get wet, they get nasty....I also have two that would just stand there and eat and eat and eat....and get hay bellies....I've never used the muzzels, they just worry me as I never turn out with a halter on....How do you stop them from getting sores on the sides of the nose?? Its tough when you board, having done that for the past year. I finally have them with me and have total control...nothing like total control over your horses. We did board at one facility and she wanted to put round bales in my guys turnouts and I said no....primarily she did it as she wanted to save the square bales for in the stalls....I was paying ALOT of money, she was trying to figure out how to get more money for less quality care. My guys didn't stay. Debby in Tx
