This is depending on the size and conditions of the living area. If the horse lives in a stall, it needs to be picked once a day, and completley cleaned once a week. (Take out all the dirty sawdust, pee, poo, almost everything) If your horse lives in a paddock with a run in/out shelter, he will have more space to go to the bathroom. Hopefully he will choose one area in which he likes to eliminate, but if he doesn't, it makes things tougher. Clean the paddock whenever it needs it (twice a month perhaps) and the shelter every other day or so, unless he prefers eliminating outside.

∙ 13y agoIf it is a frequently used stall, then you should clean it at least once a day. On the other hand, a very small stall or just a small one should maybe be cleaned twice per day or so.

Why do you need to muck out your horse?
I think what you mean is mucking out your horses stall :) This should be really obvious - would you like to live and sleep in your waste? You should do this often, to maintain hygiene and keep your horse clean.
How can you tell a horse is board in the stall?
Actually, I find that horses are not like humans at all. While we need to find something to do constantly, they normally can survive with just eating and sleeping. Some restless horses also engage in bad habits such as cribbing, or stall-walking. Cribbing can lead to death (due to colic as a result of the amount of air swallowed), but just boredom does not kill a horse. Also, depending on the horse, they can get vicious, striking out at whoever comes near it. Hope this answers your question!
How often should you clean a horses stall if it is in it often?
if you have rubber matting only. the stable should have the droppings taken out daily and the stable should be fully swept about once every 3 days. if you have straw/shavings bed. (OPTION 1 not deep litter) you should take all dropping and wet patches out and sprinkle new shavings or straw on every day, about once every week, all the straw or shavings should be taken out, the stable fully swept and another bed built. if you have straw/shavings bed. (OPTION 2 deep litter) take all the droppings out every day leave the wet patches in, simply cover them in fresh straw or shavings. about once every week, all the straw or shavings should be taken out, the stable fully swept and another bed built. hope that helps! :)
How do you care for a Palomino Horse?
Horses take a TON of responsibility, work, care, and money$$$. Every day, you have to feed, groom, exercise, and muck out the horse's stall. You have to muck out the stall twice a day in the summer, because of insects/parasites. You have to clean the horse's tack, grooming supplies, blankets, and all supplies. You have to have vet checks, and a farrier to take care of your horse's hooves. You ALWAYS have to put the horse's needs over yours, and its NOT just riding. You should spend much more time caring/spending time with your horse than riding. A horse has emotions and needs, and you can't just get on, ride around, and throw the horse back into the stall. Take a ton of riding lessons first and learn a BUNCH about horse care before purchasing/adopting a horse.

How often should you clean a horse stall if it is there often?
the stall should be cleaned at least once a day. lift bedding and remove wet parts and dung, replace bedding and top up if neede. You can deep litter which means just remove dung and leave wet but make sure top layer is dry. You will need to take wet out every few weeks. you can remove droppings when you check your horse to keep stall fresh. It is nicer to be in a dropping free stall you wouldn't want to sit in a toilet allday . Also horses hooves suffer from infections like thrush if they stand in poo and wee for too long.
Do you need a stall and run in for your horse?
Answer 1:you need a stall if you get really bad weather. If you don't, than your horse can stay in the pasture or paddockAnswer 2:Actually, you do not need to stall the horse. Stalls aren't very good, because the ammonia from their waste and carbon dioxide gets in the lungs, and horse's get stressed in small places, because they are very clostrophobic.However, they should have a run-in facing away from the most common direction of the wind.

How often should you clean the horse's stall if he is in it frequently?
If a horse is in a stall everyday for long periods of a time it should be cleaned out at least once really good. Meaning all soiled bedding should be removed and the wet spots should be left uncovered to airdry. If for any reason the horse should have an injury or be in for any type of illness. The stall should be kept clean of any droppings and urine. This is to keep any bacteria from forming which could worsen the horses health. It is also good to keep any stall clean for the well being of the horses health. A dirty stall can be a lot of a horses health problems especially if you find your horse having breathing problems when riding or just breathing. Another thing which is good for stall cleaning is that there is always fresh air coming into the barn. Even in the winter time, just leaving a door or two windows open so that there is a slight breeze through the barn. This will help with moving fresh air in, the bad air out, and keep the barn smelling better. Plus horses are use to being outside and when you move them into the barn there lungs are not use to going from warm to cold in such a short amount of time.
How often should you clean your horse's stall when it is in there very often?
You will definetly need to muck it out every day (take the poo out and wet patches of shavings/straw and replace the bedding you have taken out) You should do a FULL clean out every week ... This means that you take out ALL the bedding and disenfect the floor with a equine disenfectant. Preferably leave the stall to air unless your horse is there ... You can then replace with clean bedding knowing that you have got rid of all the nasty germs and bacteria (especially if your horse is in there very often)
