Dreamer update

Thanks Briana. I'm at my dad's house right now. Dreamer ate oats out of my hand 3 times today. I took Jack out of the barn to take a walk and be groomed and Dreamer started neighing... she might acctually like Jack a little. Maybe she's just playing hard-to-get? We decided to get my dad's friend to build one of those outside horse shed things for Jack and Dreamer so she doesn't have to be with the chickens. I'm afraid they will get too cold in the winter, though. We will figure something out for the winter, it's quite a ways away. Maybe she will be better when she's away from the poultry. We are building the fence tomorrow, then we have to get the acorns out of the pasture and they can be outside.

Horses do fine outside as long as they have a lean to shed. You have to remember that wild horses survive in much harsher conditions and as long as you provide some extra hay and grain in the winter, and a windbreak, such as lean to, they will do fine outside. They will grow longer furry haircoats and it really shouldn't be a problem to keep them outside even in the winter and you can bring them in if the weathr gets really extra bad.

Is that the same with donkeys too? Yeah, that horse shed thing I said we are getting is a lean to. hehe I forgot the name.

Anyone know how much grain I should be feeding her daily right now? We feed her oats and corn mixed. I give her a little less then half a bucket (normal horse feeding bucket) of grain a day. Jack gets a couple hand fulls as a treat.

Thanks again!
