Storm safety is always a huge question in the horse world on what and what not to do. Truly there is no right or wrong answer.
Here is what we have done with the severe storms that are coming in:
-Old halters made to break away with twine
-Halters on with tags
-Clips on halters facing the horse so the don’t get caught on anything
-Tags braided into main and/or tails
-Horses will be staying outside with access to stable shelter
-Extra hay in shelter
-Water troughs full
All my tags have the horses names, owner name, and 2-3 phone numbers on them. We have also used electrical tape instead of rubber bands to hold the braids in as it is stronger. They have extra hay in their shelter to help keep them occupied as well.
Stay safe tonight!
