Be Careful Cleaning a Horses Hoof
You Could Get Your Foot Stepped On!
When you are cleaning a horse's hoof, be careful not to put your foot under the horse's hoof. Put your foot to the side of the horse's hoof - or else, if the horse wants to put its foot down, it will land on your foot. Believe me, it is not fun one bit. It happened to me yesterday and I hope it does not happen again.[This diagram of a horse's hoof is from Equine Anatomy on Wikipedia.]

Things for mucking out.
Great tools that can help you muck a stall
You will need:a wheelbarrow to hold the bad stuff
a shavings pitchfork to obviously pick up the shavings
a four-pronged pitchfork to loosen the shavings
a shovel to clean up
and a broom is to make the stall neat
and I hope you all know that you have many more choices than shavings for a bed for your horse.

Mucking out
Mucking a stall is a great thing to do for your horse and it gets you exersise in the morning and it starts off your day right.
Y'know, there's something to be said for doing a good job mucking a stall. Doing a good job with it gives you a sense of a job well done and the satisfaction of knowing that your horse will enjoy its clean bed!Now it's time to lern how to muck a stall
1.First use the pitchfork to pick up the droppings that you see.Toss them in the wheelbarrow.
2.You will toss the shavings to the sides. Pick up the droppings that fall out.
3.Pick up the shavings that are still wet on the floor with the shavings pitchfork.
4.Your horse will be nice and comfy now that the wet shavings have been removed.Shovel up the rest of the manure and sweep the floor to be neat.
5.If you can, let the floor dry before you put the shavings back.
6.If you need to add new shavings, cut the tape on the bale carfully with a safety barn knife or scissors.
7.If you do not need the whole bale, you will need the four pronged pitchfork to loosen it up and spred it around the stall.
JUST TO GIVE YOU A HEADS UP, MUCKING OUT A STALL TAKES 30 MIN.

A neat manure pile
I bet all of us like a neat manure pile
If you can, keep the manure pile neat.You really should keep the manure pile into 3 sections:
1. One that you are going to tip the manure onto each day.
2. One that you're leaving to rot down.
3. And, one that has already rotted down - and will be used as compost or thrown out.
