The barn sounds perfect. You probably won't need the gate on the run in much, but comes in handy when you need them out of the way when the hay is being stored, or when you want them nearby and dry for the vet or farrier. You'll be suprised how big the 10 X 16 area is for two Iceys. I came down to the barn today and found the two boys and the mare sandwiched between them in one 12 X 12 stall. There are two open stalls with fans going in both, but they all want to hang out together. The two stalls are adjoining and have bars on the top half so it's not like they are isolated. Falki had to back out of the stall for them to get out. They use the stalls more in the summer than in the winter. -- Anna Southern Ohio
