Hey Eric, great thoughts! Ditto on hobbles from over here...just wondering
though, how do you keep your Fjord from fluffing up if it is on permanent
turnout? Mine are out 5 hrs daily and they are quite, um, fluffy...
Good question, but I don't really have an answer. I guess I've just
been lucky as my horses are pretty much self regulating on weight,
including the Fjord, even when turned out 24x7 on pasture. I would
think putting them on a dry lot for part of the day would be a start.
Keeping the grass length short in your pastures might be another option.
