This paper describes the behavior of horses under housing for five successive days. The experiments were performed on a stallion and a gelding, both 3 years old Kiso horses. The horses were given feeds 3 times a day, at 6:00, 11:00 and 16:00. Water was available ad libitum from a water bowl. The adjustment period lasted 7 days, the preliminary period 2 days and the observation period required 5 successive days. The usual behaviors of the horse was divided in four: locomotion, ingestion, posture and other (urination, defecation and drinking) and were recorded every minute. The time spent in the locomotion, ingestion, posture and other behaviors of a stallion and a gelding for five successive days are shown in Table 2 and 3. These times were similar for 5 days: 2.5 hr. for locomotion, 5-6 hr. for ingestion, 15-16 hr. for posture and 0.5 hr. for other. The frequency of the urination, defecation and drinking of a stallion and a gelding were 7-14, 12 and 7-14 respectively. These resultes were at constant frequency. But, the number of times of urination and drinking were variable. The changes of the locomotion, ingestion, posture, urination and defecation of a stallion and a gelding for 5 successive days are shown in Fig 1 and 2. Horses were most active during the day. Conclusion the horse has regular habits under housing conditions. Horses appear to sleep in a drowsy standing position., Article, 信州大学農学部紀要 22(1): 21-30(1985)}, pages = {21--30}, title = {連続5日間観察における舎飼い木曾馬の行動について}, volume = {22}, year = {1985} }
