Put lots of hay in a haynet(uphigh).May even get a lesser quality of hay so
he doen't get too fat.

My 16 year old thoroughbred gelding has just been put on stall rest for 4
months to repair a soft tissue injury in his foot.  The first 4-6 weeks he
can have lots of hand walking then the remainder of the time very limited
turn out (ie short duration & small area).  He has a "stall ball" to play
with and there will be another horse in the barn all the time to keep him
company.  Any other thoughts on ways to keep him happy??
