be bottle fed on
Hi Janice,
Any horse that won't be fly sprayed at ten years is a
horse that has gaps in ground training and some necessary handling was
skipped..
If you don't have flies and other biting bugs where you live then there may
not be a need for a horse to be fly sprayed. Just different perspective
