A stabled horse with limited to no turnout will need hay in front of it around the clock. This is best done with multiple slow feeders positioned around the stall to encourage the horse to move around. You can fill up the slow feeders the day before and have them ready to hang in the morning.

Water should also be present at all times, this can be in the form of basic buckets that you clean and fill every morning or an automatic watering system that you clean every few days.

If the horse recieves grain or a hard feed it should be divided into meals of no more than 4 lbs (1.8 kg) fed at regular intervals.

How often do you clean a horses stable?

If the horse is kept stabled overnight then you will need to muck out at least once per day, usually in the morning after the horse is turned out. If however he is kept stabled throughout most of the day and night, you will need to clean him out more often - usually skip out muck through the day with gloves and a bucket.


What happens if the horse doesn't have fur?

A horse without fur would be very susceptible to sunburn and cold temperatures; exposure to intense sun or cold would likely prove fatal. However, if the horse is kept stabled and blanketed, it could have a reasonable life expectancy and quality.

How often should a horses stall be cleand?

You should clean a horse's stall once a day if your horse is in at night and goes out during the day. If this is the case you should clean your horse's stall after he goes out in the morning or before he comes in, in the afternoon. If your horse is kept in a stall 24/7 (which I do not reccomend) then clean the horse's stall at least three times a day. Once in the morning, once at noon and again at night. when cleaning your stabled horse's stall move him into a spare stall while you work so he is not in your way.

What happens if a horse eats scratch feed?

I would depend on how much he ate. A small amount would probably not do any harm. But a larger quantity may give him the colic or even cause an impaction. Keep all feed (horse or chicken) locked up. I have known of horses turning doorknobs, lifting or sliding latches, ect, to get to the feed. Any feed needs to be kept locked.

How do wild horses get their oxygen?

Is this is serious question..... the same why any other horse would, whether they're stabled/field kept/wild they all get oxygen the same way. They breathe it in(nose). Basically the same way we do. Basically by breathing. However humans have a double circulation system, and I think horse (like fish) only have a single circulation system. Not 100% sure about that bit though.
