I've come to the conclusion that most horses chew wood. It may still annoy me, but as long as it's not cribbing, I mostly let it go. I did put some metal up in some places where I didn't want the boards chewed through. The gelding I brought home didn't chew on trees for 18 years before I got him (I knew the place and there wasn't any trees to chew on), and as soon as he got here, he helped kill a couple by chewing on them. There's grass in the field and they'll be nipping off tree branches. I think they just need the roughage. I've seen so many horses chewing wood when I go camping that I no longer really consider it a vice but more just what they do.
