poor horses

gotta be cold!!

brrrrrr they look cold to me Wow that is a lot of snow, I would be a hermit until the spring thaw comes around if I lived where it snows.

Sherral, I amazes me that animals can survive the natural elements. Do they have any place to be protected from the snow??

Awww! That makes me want to take them inside and wrap them up in warm blankets - then again, that might not be such a good idea, huh?

There should be some sort of shelter for them. I wouldn't be surprised if there wasn't though, horses are tough animals, can survive through all kinds of weather conditions.

Horses know when the weather is coming and they grow a nice thick coat to protect them. Even in the snow, when I brought my kids into the stall and brushed them out, underneath the wet over coat, their undercoat was still dusty! As long as they have hay to munch, they will be fine, shelter is best as well, but munching hay keeps horses the warmest. They look drafty to me, and I think they will be just fine.

they have a big barn,they are not mine,they live on a farm up the road from me.They are draft horses. And BIG!!

I'm sure those horses have a shelter where they can escape the cold. And btw, isn't that the edge of a barn I see on the far left side??????
