Randomly found in Cherry Hill's new book, Horsekeeping Almanac on page 466
under Historical Horsekeeping: "Colts should be castrated in April, or at the
end of May..... Colts castrated in the cold season of the year are likely to
have permanently a rough coat."
                            -- The Book of the Horse by Samuel Sidney, 1880
Could this be the reason for my guy's rough coat, as he was gelded in
December?? Any thoughts? (Note: Cherry Hill put a heading on the above boxed
quote, "Not Always True"!
