Interesting......tempting, but I sure wouldn't here.....I think the horses
are SUPPOSED to shed over a month period.....here in Northern Calif, even if
the days are getting warm, the nights can still be chilly.  If I shed out a
horse in one day, I would feel compelled to blanket at night though
April.....I guess I put a lot of faith in the horses ability to shed
according to the temps.

It seems a lot like the ear-hair clipping-I never would think of doing that.
Those hairs have a function!
