Ruthie, your "brutal winter" seems mild to us...-20 here today, was -30 last week. my Fjords are doing fine, old Bjarne,35 and Stella, 33, get their senior feed with joint supplements as a warm mash, Bjorken, 23, gets some too, but he is a bit too fat. They all are fat, and have a heated water tank for water. Plenty of hay. They do great here, and we have had much colder weather in other winters and I am sure will get some -40's before it is over. Not much wind, tho so that IS a big factor. Jean in Fairbanks, Alaska, with cold -20's after the freezing rain and ice storm two weeks ago. > Winter has been brutal thus far.. has been down to zero even! Up to 20* today > and a big improvement! > > Fjords here fare well, but I hate the extreme cold on account of the seniors > especially-- > Teal and Odie are both 21 yrs now.. just does not seem possible. > > Ruthie, nw mt US Important FjordHorse List Links: Subscription Management: http://tinyurl.com/5msa7e FH-L Archives: http://tinyurl.com/rcepw Classified Ads: http://tinyurl.com/5b5g2f
