[RC] Vacation Plans for Mare - Val Nicoson
Just a quick question to ridecampers--My boarded horse
is turned out to pasture about 1-1/2 to
2 hours per
day. I plan to go on vacation next week and am
thinking of moving her to my friend's house for
care while
I'm gone. However she has her horses turned out
nearly 24/7. Since the grass is no longer
"spring" grass
would this be OK going from 2 hours per day to nearly
24/7? I don't want her to colic. When I
return she
will then return to the stable and back to 2 hours per
day again.
Plans are already in the works for moving her to a
pasture boarding situation which we know is
the absolute
best for her anyway. But this could be 3-6 months
down the road yet.
Thanks,
Val
