Rug Fill / Weight Guide

The thermoneutral zone is the temperature range where the body can maintain its core temperature with little to no extra energy expenditure. For humans, this range is quite narrow at 21–28 °C, but for horses it’s much broader at 5–25 °C.

This difference means we should avoid rugging horses based on how cold we feel. Over-rugging can lead to serious health issues, including metabolic problems and thermoregulatory dysfunction.

Tips for Choosing a Winter Rug Weight

  • Clipped horses may need a heavier gram fill to stay comfortable.

  • Remember: horses warm themselves more easily than they cool down under a rug. If unsure, choose a lighter rug.

  • Check your horse regularly to make sure they are neither too hot nor too cold.

  • Consider your horse’s age and natural ability to stay warm.

  • As a general guide, rugging is usually appropriate when temperatures drop below 5–10 °C, but always adjust for your horse’s individual needs.

  • Always ensure rugs are waterproof. A wet rug is worse than no rug at all.

This is an indicative guide only. Always take into account factors such as wind chill, your horse’s age, weight, and condition.

Why natural is important – as ulcers hurt!

Gastric ulcers in horses can vary from mild ulcers to quite severe requiring veterinary treatment.

However, most horses have varying degrees of minor stomach ulceration requiring daily maintenance and good feeding practices.

It is important to use products such as Gastro-S that are incredibly kind to the sensitive stomach lining and are proven to provide comfort and help restore a healthy gut and even more importantly don’t cause irritation!

 

What are stomach ulcers in horses?

Stomach ulcers are essentially an acid burn to the stomach lining and common place with horses. Hydrochloric acid is constantly produced in the lower portion of the horses’ stomach. However, if this acid splashes to the upper portion it is not protected and is therefore prone to ulceration.
