We have spoiled horses. I am not bragging, but at least two of them were brought up like royalty; luxury accommodations, and loved. Along the way one of them had a rough patch, unfortunately lasting for too long. However, he never lost sight of the fact that he is awesome, if he thinks you forgot he will remind you.
They both have been staying in overnight more often because they want to. They are asking for their beds, and feel they have the right to gain access. I let them. We have a great barn, so why fight city hall?
The manure spreader is getting a frequent workout, which has been kind of 'iffy' because of the weather (freezing rain, snow, soft ground) but we're maintaining. The question being - do you want to spread manure in 17 degree weather or freezing rain?
The sawdust that we use for bedding is easier to 'pick' through, and Skip in particular is practically house-broken. He keeps his 'piles' to one corner, leaving the rest of the sawdust in pristine condition.
