Love that blue check UHF @jordanscollected hope you and your horses are well after that terrible blizzard
-
@jordanscollected How are those cargoes working in the MN temps? Personally, I think they’re perfect for windy and cold conditions.

Thanks @Chap! I actually was more worried than my wife about the horses. We had plenty of snow, but the really low temps (-40f wind chills) were what I was most concerned about. The horses do great with no blankets necessary as long as they have plenty of hay to eat to keep them warm. 35f and raining is much worse than -30f and dry.
@goosehd I've been reaching for these over denim pants every day these last couple of cold weeks due to their warmth, wind resistance and overall comfort. I just got back from a walk, and though it's in the 20's today, it's pretty windy and they felt basically impenetrable from the wind and cold.
I kind of want the black denim version now, but it would be an easy choice if they were black whipcord cargos.

@goosehd There is a barn with stalls but it's only used when us or the owners are feeding special food to the horses, when they are getting their feet trimmed in the winter, or if a horse is sick or recovering from injury.
Unless a horse is "trained" to come in and spend nights in stalls, horses much prefer to be outside in the elements no matter the weather. They grow very thick winter coats (I'll be out to see them tomorrow and get some pics of Beau, the herd and the grounds) and they have some woods to go in to escape the wind.
They also huddle up together for warmth. Horses produce a crap ton of heat organically, and if they are in a warm barn overnight without a fan or proper ventilation they will overheat fast and sweat profusely trying to stay cool.
People tend to think that if a human is cold, a horse is cold and that's false.

Solid and knowledgeable horse physiology crash course @jordanscollected ! Thank you!!
Frankly didn’t know that much about them, even though I have 40-50 working equines on the ranch. We VERY RARELY have cold weather probs here, 26 C average year temps. Mostly VERY SUDDEN 25 deg C temp drops within 12 hours, with rainy/drizzly conditions, are what gives up trouble. Although it is mostly restricted to bovines (Nelore) and very seldom equines.
Happy to hear your family, neighbors and equine companions are all OK!!!
