So my mats are arriving Friday week and I'm hoping the area is big enough to shut him in if needed if the ground gets really saturated. Not 24/ 7 but probably just while I was at work on a short day so maybe 6 hours. What do I need to put in there to make him comfortable. Obviously water, I will have buckets already ordered those and I have ones I can use anyway. I have my hay feeder but was thinking of getting a second and putting a post in, so having 3 areas I can hay him, just to make him move around a little. I think I'll get him a couple of softer rubber mats to give him somewhere to stand or lay as mud control mats are very solid. And then I thought a small sand area for him to pee/ poo comfortably.
Am I missing something really obvious? More hay feeders? Less? I'm looking to get a really small holed hay net/ two to make the hay last so he's not just stood there with nothing to do.
I'm still worried the area might be a bit small but it's the best I can do really
