Re: [RC] Trailer bedding (shavings)-was Standing wraps - Joe LongOn Fri, 30 Jun 2006 08:19:17 -0400 (GMT-04:00), Barb Peck <bpeck9191@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: While we're on the subject of trailering... My neighbors are stressing to me that when I trailer (2 horse straight load) I should be using waaay more shavings than I do (which is none to almost none). I conceed that if I was using a stock trailer as a box, and hauling extremely long distances, then maybe I would- but for short trips of a few hrs- I don't see the point. They tried to use the 'less concussion' on the legs theory- and I just don't see how that could possibly help unless the bedding extremely deep. What do most of you do? Barb Rubber mats, no shavings at all. I get my horses off for a few minutes every 3-4 hours, and they usually urinate then. -- Joe Long jlong@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.chiprider.com =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
