Janet, when we had horses, one thing we noticed was that even when it was snowing and blowing most would rather stand outside. In hot weather they'd go under shelter to find shade, but extreme cold didn't seem to bother them. They'd turn their butts to the wind and brave it out.

Seriously now...I think that is amazing. I really had not given it much thought before but for some reason during this subzero snap, I saw them out there and not looking like it bothered them at all. Now if they were hugely fat and used the fat to keep warm, I could see it a little better, but they were just beautiful horses out in a field.

Janet, in colder climates like ours they do grow a nice thick undercoat that helps considerably. If you're around them in spring you'll see it falling off. It's enough that it's really quite a mess when they shed in spring.

 Thanks!
