Why do Redwings horses live out?
All our horses live out all year round unless they are under veterinary care, simply because this is the most natural lifestyle for them. Horses are by nature outdoor animals and they thrive from the fresh air and exercise that the outdoors gives them, not to mention the companionship they get from being with their herd. For our more elderly residents the freedom means they can stretch their legs and exercise as much or as little as they wish, while for the younger horses and ponies, they get to burn off all their excess energy and have fun!
