Not all hay is equal and winter hay can affect allergy-prone horses. 🌾
Mold, dust, and storage conditions can make hay a hidden trigger for respiratory or skin allergies. Even hay that looks “fine” can still cause issues for sensitive horses.

What to watch for:
• Musty smell or visible dust
• Increased coughing while eating
• Nasal discharge after feeding
• Reduced appetite
Soaking or steaming hay can significantly reduce airborne allergens and make feeding more comfortable for sensitive horses.

Winter itch is real, even when the bugs are gone! ❄️🐴
Dry air, heavy blankets, and reduced grooming can cause skin irritation, dandruff, and rubbing during the colder months. Some horses also develop contact sensitivities to certain blankets or bedding materials.

Some helpful tips:
• Check blankets daily for rubbing
• Groom regularly to remove dead hair and debris
• Keep skin clean and dry
• Wash blankets and pads periodically
Persistent itching or hair loss may indicate allergies, fungal issues, or parasites, all worth checking out.

❄️ Winter Allergies Aren’t Just a Spring Problem!
Even in the colder months, horses can experience seasonal or environmental allergies. Winter allergens often come from dusty hay, bedding, mold, and poor barn ventilation, especially when horses spend more time indoors.
Common signs of winter allergies include:
• Runny or irritated eyes
• Nasal discharge
• Coughing or increased respiratory noise
• Itchy skin or rubbing
• Head shaking

Helpful winter tips:
✔️ Soak or steam hay to reduce dust
✔️ Use low-dust bedding
✔️ Improve airflow in barns when possible
✔️ Clean stalls and feed areas regularly
✔️ Monitor horses closely, especially those with a history of allergies
If your horse’s symptoms persist or worsen, it’s important to rule out infection or other respiratory concerns.
