A radio can actually be very good for horses, considering you play music they like.

Meaning, not Heavy Metal or Punk Rock. anything soft and soothing is great.

I use music to drown out scary noises so that the horses can sleep, (i.e. during a hail/wind storm.) it doesn't have to be loud at all, just enough so it is slightly louder then the storm/scary noise. I play either Classical or Oldies Country (neither of which I enjoy in the least, but the horses do.) It relaxes them quite a bit. Horses are companion animals. Often a single horse is kept by an owner. That horse is usually lonely and bored and would enjoy human company, even if only human background music to break the loneliness. Research has proven the soothing and calming effect of Classical Music on dairy cows. Milk production increased significantly. Less stress to the cows.

How many horses can you fit into an empty barn that is 100 feet high and 50 feet wide and 70 feet long if a horse is 6.5 feet high 4 feet long and 2 feet wide?

Given that this is a riddle, there are many answers possible depending on the way you think about it: * One horse: after the first horse is put in the barn, it isn't empty. Mathematically, we can work out how many horses would fit if we can arrange whatever way we like: * 6730.77 horses: The volume of the barn divided by the volume of a horse gives the number of horse volumes that could fit in the barn volume. * 437.5 horses: If horses cannot be stacked, this is the area of the barn floor divided by the area a horse takes up giving the number of horses that fit if only one level of horses goes in the barn. In reality, we cannot fit parts of a horse or put them in any shape we want like a liquid: * 6555 horses: 437 horses per level and we can fit 15 levels of horses in the barn. * 437 horses: this is the number of horses that fit if we cannot stack horses and we cannot fit parts of horses around them.


It is better to put horses in or outside of the barn at night?

They'll probably get more domesticated if you put them inside the barn. Also, they'll be safer against any hazardous weather that may randomly occur.

How many horses will fit in the average livestock trailer?

The average livestock trailer will fit about 2 horses. Any more horses would require atleast a 16 ft trailer. However, this would also depend on preference. If this trailer is being used for a long haul as living quarters, you may not want your horses too cooped up. However, if it were a simple trip to the vet, 2 horses per average trailer would be fine.

Are there any feeding behaviors for horses?

They all have different behaviors. They tend to be creatures of habit. I have a barn with 14 horses in it, for example. These guys have been fed from one end of the barn until the other (14 in total). I mixed it up one day and failed to feed Codey first, as I normally do. the barn went crazy. Codey started yelling and the others followed suit. Most did not touch their hay until Codey had been fed. The grass is always greener syndrome is the classic tale of horses feeding also. You can leave a whole bale of awesome grass hay in front of them and they still want what is on the cart.

How to Choose the Right Barn Kits for Your Property?

Barn kits can be incredibly convenient when you need to construct a barn as quickly as possible, and most barns that are made from barn kits can barely be distinguished from a traditional barn. While some farmers might prefer to build their barn with their own two hands, it is important to consider whether you have the time or the resources that are needed in order to build a barn from scratch. The fact of the matter is that most farmers can get by perfectly well with a barn that is made from a barn kit, and many of the barn kits that are currently on the market are designed to last for decades longer than traditional barns. Let’s take a look at two of the most common types of barn kits that are available to modern farmers. One of the most common barn kits that today’s farmers seem to prefer is for western classic style barns. These barn kits are designed to equip farmers with everything that they need to horse barns and other livestock barns based on the types of barns that are traditionally associated with the Old West. Nearly all of the barn kits that are avalable in this style include plans and materials for large lofts if they are needed, but the barns are designed to be completely stable without any lofts as well. Horse lovers who only have a limited amount of space on their property and only one or two horses often invest in a barn kit for a shed row or a run-in shed. Shed rows and run in sheds are designed to be small enough to accommodate on or two horses and have enough space for a tack room that with plenty of room to give your horses the attention that they deserve. There are also run-in shed available that can handle all three or four horses and provide plenty of temporary shelter on a larger estate. All of the barn kits that are available to farmers come with all of the lumber, hardware and engineering plans that you should need in order to easily raise a barn with just a few other workers in the space of a single weekend.
