  1. I'm thinking of putting my stall lights on a timer next year to simulate longer daylight and hopefully decrease hair growth. I read that the light needs to be enough to read by. Do I need to use special bulbs, or will incandescent or fluorescent do? And can you explain whether the lights will delay growing the coat or make it less warm, or both? Updated: January 06, 2010
  2. What is the purpose of blanketing a horse? If I am wanting to keep a horse slicked down, is it due to more light or keeping the horse warm? Updated: October 29, 2008
