[RC] FW: [RC] Safe correl size for a normal or large horse - Ginny Holsman


April,



Are you asking about the safe size of a coral at an endurance ride, for trail camping, or in combination with stall or shelter for 24/7/365 confinement, except when riding? These different circumstances would each require a different size coral. Also are you referring to the size that is required, by law or endurance rules, or the size that is best for your horse -- proper care? There are different rules and guidelines that apply in different situations. Also safe from or for what purpose? Safe enough to prevent a horse from jumping out? Safe enough to prevent a wolf from jumping in? Safe enough to do ground training such as in a round pen? Again, the correct coral size depends upon function and purpose. Furthermore, the way in which a coral is constructed also has an effect upon size -- a rope coral, a wood fence & post coral, a portable coral, a heavier stell coral? These all have different size requirements depending upon many other factors I haven't even listed!


Please be more specific.

He is 15.2. He doesn't roll n a stall or in a stall size fence. I take him for a walk and let him roll after a ride, before he gets "stalled." He has never been to an endurance ride, but he has done plenty of trail camping this way.
Anybody with more experience wanna jump in here????
Debbie, Can you send me a copy of the rule? What park is it?
April
