Horse Bedding
May 20, 2009
To make sure your horse is happy in their home they will need all of the essentials to be happy. Bedding is one main essential that a horse must have.
A horse doesn’t want to sleep on concrete or bare floor so it is important to cover the floor with a padding.
There are many types of suitable bedding.
Some people use straw which is popular and has been traditionaly used for the course of many years. Straw is easy to dispose of because it can be burnt unlike other types of beddings. Even though straw is the most common bedding used, it still has some disadvantages because it can cause an allergic reaction to the horse.
Another type of bedding is wood shavings which provides a clean enviroment for the horse and will not be mistakenly eaten. Unfortunately, wood shavings are not easy to dispose of or transport when wet.
Also there may be some unwanted large amounts of wood in the wood shavings but should not cause a problem.
