[RC] Mud and More Mud - RHightshoe





Rain and more rain.  I started building an Ark but stopped because I would
only be able to take two horses.  I won't let my horses out on pasture when
the ground is soggy because they would ruin what grass is available.  I
keep them in corals and everything works out well except the more it rains
the deeper the mud gets.  It looks like they are all standing in about a
foot of muck and water and it will seemingly take forever to dry out even
if the rain stops.  I'll probably be doctoring for Thrush before it is all
over.  I'd be interested in learning how others deal with muddy corals.
Logically, I would think mixing truck loads of gravel in with the soil
might help but I have no idea if the gravel would do more harm then good.
If you have had a similar problem and were able to fix it, I would
appreciate the benefit of your experience.  Thanks,  Bob
