My horse poops in his waterbucket12007-11-24 21:18:35

I took my horse to a show that laster 3 days long. He was in the stall much of his time simply because it was hot and some days i didnt show. I filled up his water bucket, gave extra hay and yet the next morning his waterbucket was shaped weird and there was poop in it. I was watching him and he tried to do it again. He sat on it pretty much. What should i do/

Answers:

hes bored try putting those likit chews in his stall and a jolly ball or something, also make sure you leave the window part open so he can watch whats going on and ppl will probably come by and pet him so hell have some attention

if he keeps doing it then maybe hang the bucket on the outside of his door so he has to stick his head out and drink or hang the bucket up higher so he cant get his butt on it

good luck!!!

move the bucket

I do the same thing when I'm nervous.

give he a water potty

i hate when that happens!

He seems to be saving you a lot of work cleaning up. Give him another bucket so he'll have one to poop in and one to drink from.

---

try have the water bucket suspended instead. good luck!

Move the bucket - put it somewhere higher, where he can still drink, but can't sit on it.

Hook it to the wall maybe
