For those of you that keep your mini's on 24/7 turnout, what precautions do you take?
I am considering keeping my two mini mares outside to help manage one that has mild heaves. As long as she is outside in the fresh air she has no issues, but begins to cough when brought into the barn, even with all the doors and windows open for airflow.
Since we have coyotes in our area, and the paddock is close to the bush, what precautions would you suggest i take with regards to predators?
Would just the two girls be alright outside? A donkey was suggested to me by a friend as protection...
So, just curious, how do you manage your outdoor mini's?
Thanks!
