Eating Oak Trees
My horses are chewing the bark off my oak trees in
this unusual heat wave we are having........Living on 20 acres with oaks and
pines abundant.....they never chew, unless the temp goes above 95, which the
last 2 weeks, it has been daily.
With that, they have been very aggressively eating
my trees.....I give them extra minerals and salt...loose....
To No Avail......any thoughts will be
appreciated.....
