I have fed cubes, but I feel that you MUST feed either hay or straw with
the cubes. I don't think the cubes alone have enough bulk to keep the
horses from impacting. I am using cubes this year to make my hay last
till spring.
As to th

Reena you are certainly right about the coughing taking a long time to taper
off. We have been in the deep freeze for a week or more and have not been
able to water the hay and he is starting to cough again. Luckily we are
hoping for our firs

I personally don't like the cubes. I've seen a few horse get impaction
colic because of themand these were older horses too. Don't know of
anyone elses thoughts on this, but would love to hear about them
Don't know about the barn thing.

I knew long ago that my huge Charlie would end up with heaves as he has had
everything else. Sure enough last winter lots of coughing and white gloop
pouring out his nose. I never close the barn, a small one but it is dusty

I have one of the "horse vacs" and they work well but are clumsy and heavy.
I don't hang it on my shoulder - too heavy.
A friend has a floor standing model - expensive, but much easier to work.
I think a lightweight vac of most any kind would work fi

We use a small hand held Dirt Devil vacuuum on our horses if they are
really dusty. They seem to really enjoy it, as it has a rotating brush
inside of it. Really good for de-sensitizing them to loud noises, and
getting them ready for thing
