Hello Bryan, site looks pretty dormante at 1st but after a question is asked, there are alot of views but NO replys! ????? Anyway I'll give YOU a shot on U'r question on flooring! Where my horses stay is ole dirt floors with sand filled in...We use shaving & some folks use new type bedding(pellets) that we see in feed stores! The shaving will asorb the Mositure(urine) if cleaned daily but don't think U'll just drop shaving & leave it... gets real messy after a few days if U'r not cleaning wet spots/manure! Hard floors as concrete/stone is fine if YOU have a cushion(mats/shavings/bedding) & clean daily(U can get by ever couple of days)..OK OK, theres not a one answer FITS ALL HORSES...If YOU got a digger(PAWer) the hard floors aren't as good as dirt(OR are they) BUT hard floors(concrete/stone can be slicky & cause an accident...I suppose I should have ask, "Are horses gonna be kept up all the time or fed & let out?" If they are gonna be let out for 1/2 the day, I'd stick with dirt floors & shavings! Hope this hasn't clouded the question to much!
