I had a morgan that some how got out of his stall all the time. My dad had built the whole barn out of reclaimed dairy farm wood.
I didn't think much of it at the time, but now I look back and I am impressed.
But back to the story. My mare would somehow pull the clasp of of the slidding bolt and get out. She wouldn't go far, she wanted to go down to the end stall and visit old Penny my sisters quarter mare.
It was funny my dad and I still to this day can not figure out how she got out, we tried a pintle clip and a few other variations.. but darn if she didn't figure them all out within a weeks time.
So we finally had to use a heavy duty pin and clip to keep her in.. she was crumpy and no pleasure to ride for about 2 weeks after she figured out she couldn't get out and Roam Free.
Hey I want to break into song... Roam Free.. As free as the wind blows... (isnt that a song)
wait that dates me doesn't it.. bummer.
