When I was a small kid my saturday job at 25 cents an hour was cleaning the horse barn stalls.Dad ground corn cobs in the hammer mill and that was the bedding. Manure forked hard but not as hard as corn stalks I betcha.Stringy old corn stalks will make a preacher cuss. If you can run the stalks thru a chopper it would help.Dad had 5 head of Clydesdales and 1 mule plus a pony for us kids to fool with. He farmed with horses mostly until 1935 when he got a used Oliver/Hart Parr 70 to do the heavy work with.With the help of a stool at 8 years old I could harness any of our 4 legged gentle giants.I always was a big kid,still am,5"11"/218 Lb.so hard work never phased me too much,still doesn"t.Any ways,I would consider useing some thing else for Horse Bedding in a stall than Corn stalks. Visit a Commercial Livery and check out what they use.That may give you some idea the direction to go for your own barn.
