This is a discussion on New Pasture...and pasture-mates! within the Horse Pictures forums, part of the Horse Pictures, Videos, Artwork, and Contests category
We recently decided to rent a 35 acre pasture monthly. We moved Sundance to the new pasture this afternoon. I took several pics, and some of his new pasture-mates. They all seem to get along well, they were galloping and snorting, having a great time! I'll be goin' back in a couple of days to see him, I can't wait. On with the pics...
Sundance is beautiful and looks very happy with his new herd :) All of them are very pretty aswell. Love the 8th pic hehe you can barely see Sundance :)
Well, in my area, Barbed Wire is mostly used. You rarely see a field fenced in anything else. Occasionally, you'll see electric as well as mesh fencing. We have always used Barbed Wire with our horses in the past, and have yet to have a problem. But, you never really know. Anyway, I left the halter on in case of a quick catch, if something went wrong.
Personally I would never put my horse in a barbed wire pasture, especially with horses he dosent really know yet. With 35 acres he could be cought up for a while before anyone sees/ finds him.
