>>>> I read somewhere that you should have a ratio 3 acres per horse? I know I'll have an abundance of land for my two if we get that property--so of course I'll need more horses!
I guess it's nice to have that much for rotating, but over the years, we've never really needed more than 1 acre per horse, even with the big horses. If you have too much pasture, it takes more management - a lot of mowing, etc. The answer to that is OBVIOUSLY...buy more horses! BTW, I'm sure these rules vary greatly by geography...I've heard that in some parts of the western USA, you'd need 30 acres to support ONE horse!
