WATERING HORSES IN WINTER

Courtesy of Penn State Extension
Horses should not be fed excessively cold water, as it may bring on colic symptoms. Try a heated waterer or consider taking warm buckets out when it’s cold outside. If nothing else, make sure to break the ice on a horse’s water supply in freezing temperatures. In very cold weather, water heaters may be needed to prevent the water from freezing.
