How many gallons does a horse drink a day?!
Do you know how many GALLONS of water a horse drinks a day??
Less pasture and more dry forages results in horses consuming less water in the winter months. Snow or ice is not an adequate source of water, so as winter approaches, make sure you have a solid plan for your horses to have access to waster.
Lack of water can cause Colic!!
My favorite technique to increase hydration is providing constant access to salt.
