To help stop gateways getting too poached, lay the wet shavings from your horses bed onto a flat surface.
FENCING
There are a few different types of fencing used in fields, and you must consider a number of different factors when choosing a new fence or moving horses onto new grazing. Each type has pro’s and con’s – you need to decide which is best for your horse and your bank balance. Whichever you choose or already have, it must be maintained regularly to ensure it isn’t dangerous to you and your equines.
POST AND RAIL is the safest fence to use but can also be the most expensive when starting from scratch. Long term it is by far the best one to use. Horses tend to use the posts as scratching posts, so they must be concreted in securely. Maintenance can be high – having to replace broken or damages rails and creosoting every year. The modern substitute is heavy-duty plastic fencing which looks like the conventional post and rails, but is almost maintenance free.
HEDGES if strong and well maintained are most people’s first choice for defining boundaries. They provide wind breaks in all weathers. You need to ensure that they are free from poisonous plants – especially yew and deadly nightshade. Urban hedges can also contain laburnum, privet, beech, rhododendron and laurel which are all poisonous. If any of there are present and cannot be easily removed, then fence off that area with electric fencing.
PLAIN WIRE fencing is potentially hazardous as is PIG-NETTING and BARBED WIRE. Plain wire and barbed wire must be stretched taut between posts. The lowest strand must not be any lower than 50cm or 1' 8” from the ground. To avoid any potential serious injuries don't put horses in adjacent fields if this type of fence is used. To make the field safer, consider using electric fence posts and wire around the perimeter.
