Colt/stallion/youngster livery?

[Sparkles]

Is there much of a demand for it? We could easily take on a few colts/stallions or any ages if needed as we can make the space easily enough by just putting more stables up/have 24/7 turnout for youngsters in the herd/or have room for any barn kept over winter for out ones we have in who are just on ad-lib hay in one side of the barn. It's not top notch or anything as we're still in the middle of getting it set-up exactly how we want it, but in view of that, the prices wouldn't have to be high as it's not really any extra hard work for us to do as we have so many of our own anyway and just the fact that they're entire still, doesn't make any difference to us anyway.
We can't really cater much for mares or fillies as we mainly have colts and stallion in, but after a few owners have commented how hard they've found it get livery yards who will take on colts, just got me wondering whether there is much of a demand for it and whether it would be worth advertising something along them lines?

I'm not advertising...I'm just asking a genuine question!

Haha clearly not then.

 

[I love my Spanish horse]

I recently moved away from wiltshire to Berkshire, and found it extremely difficult to find a livery yard willing to accept my spanish stallion, and the ones that did often charged a premium for it and didnt have any turnout.
I cant speak for the majority but i think there is certainly a market for it with spanish horses, theyve such fantastic temperments that people often keep them entire over here, and even more would if there were more livery yards to accomodate them that would give them a decent quality of life, with turnout etc.
But of course the majority of people instantly think 'oh god a stallion', based on ones that been isolated and treated like wild lunatics, (which unsuprisingly often is what turns them into nutters in the first place) and never give the sound, sweet, quiet ones the time of day.
At least as a stallion on a mixed busy yard mine has to be treated firmly but fairly, he has strict rules in place and therefore doesnt dare take the piss, but at the same time is allowed to interact and see other horses, gets treated exactly the same and gets turned out nearly every day. As a result is so much better mannered and easier to handle than most of the middle aged, riding club types on my old yard
Btw, ive fortunatly found a lovely new place for him and couldnt be happier
