The oaks are shedding on to the backs of the horses (and donkeys!). The horses are shedding on to the grass. And the itty bitty birds are carrying the horse hair back up into the trees. It's spring time!
I've been soaking everyone's grain in water the past few days. Since there is still limited fresh grass the horses are eating a lot of dry matter (hay, grain, etc). Adding water and occassionaly adding wet wheat bran will help their guts out. Just trying to avoid upset horse bellies!
Everyone appears nice and plump so once the grass explodes in the next few weeks we will very likely need to cut back on their grain.
Since your blankets are no longer needed feel free to clean them and hang them to dry on the fence. No reason we can't put them away until next winter!
Enjoy Florida!
