Horses in winter

Gulfport, MS(Zone 8a)

Being new at this and all, i need some help.

Please help with these!!

How cold is too cold to turn them out?

Do they really need blankets?

How much hay do they need when there isnt any grass?

When its snowing, do i bring them in?

Do i need to increase grain amounts in the winter months? If so, how much? Right now they get 1 scoop in the am and 1 1/2 in the pm.

Thanks

Is there a difference between wet snow and dry snow?

Can they walk in 3 ft of snow?
