Description
Excerpt from The Practical Stud Groom
The home yard, containing the stud groom's house, brood mare boxes, foaling boxes, and general Offices, should be centrally situated, with the paddocks radiating from it, like the spokes from the hub of the wheel. The stallion boxes and covering yard should be at'a distance from the mares' boxes, and so situated that the sires can get to their daily exercise ground, be it public highway or paddock, without having to run the gauntlet, en route, of batches of mares and foals, grazing on either hand. The foaling boxes should be near the stud groom's quarters, and some what removed from the other brood mare boxes. The yearling boxes should also be well removed from the mares' quarters.
