Simply what we mean is in the times when
we are not riding or training the horses are given the liberty to live their
life as intended for a horse. They live in a specifically designed and designated area
we refer to as our EQ-System (ecosystem) - balanced to meet the horses natural
biological needs as well as managed for the health and benefit of the land they live on.
All Equinextion horses (past, present and future) are happy, well adjusted confident individuals
with a good sense of 'self'. They each have their unique personal character and
they all know what it means to 'be' a horse. They act and interact like 'equus'.
They are allowed to do what they would want to do (grazing/playing/sleeping) ... where they want to do it (in the shelter/in
the trees/out in the open) ... with who they want to be with (a favorite friend/alone/all together). Their lives
are dynamic and interesting - not just standing around all day or all night.
Nighttime is a very active time for the natural
horse. They don't sleep all night. Rest is usually done during the day. Someday I would love to get a night
shot video camera of all the activity.
