Hi everyone, i'm new here and have been reading the posts and thought i'd join!
At the moment i am in the process of buying a 9.5 acre field. It's going to be a while before it all goes through, only just applied for planning permission for stables and so on, so i was just wondering generally what other people would do with the land in my situation?
I currently only have one horse and will be buying a second to keep him company. Obviously 9.5 acres is more than enough grazing for two horses but the field was too good to turn down! So what would you do......offer grass livery, diy livery (should have a spare stable), neither, something else, any other suggestions?
Also, assuming it's just my two to begin with, how would you split the grazing? it is divided into a 4 acre and 5.5 acre field at the mo, and assuming the horses will be out 24/7 in summer and stabled at night in winter. I know im getting a bit ahead of myself but i like to plan!
Thanks
