well by hook or by crook or by working all night, my horses and foals will have a warm place before it arrives!
I am just so glad it has warmed up so much now. I just went outside in nothing more than shirtsleeves, and it was a little nippy but not bad.
Same here. Sunshine and very little wind. I was going to put Sarah Lee back in the pasture but decided to wait until tomorow.
I am glad it warmed up for you, and I hope you get your barn up soon...
And if I might add something, you were led down a bad path by whoever told you you should just turn that stallion out with your mares and let them breed at will. I don't know anyone who would have recommended that... or recommended that you take on a stallion in the first place. My understanding is that he is not a registered horse, and really should be gelded. It is definately not too late to prevent him from developing the traits and behaviors that most studs have. He has less value and useability for you, but is also much harder to sell as a stallion. Most people, even and especially experienced horse people, wouldn't bother to look at a stud.
