Grazing horses with farmed deer

[sall5]

Hello - Does anyone have any experience of horses grazing in a field with farmed deer?

I am talking of "normal" sized fields around 5 acres with a small herd of Red deer including stags. I am also referring to outwith The Rut which I think really would be asking for trouble

I feel this would be different from wild herds passing through horses fields no matter how regularly that happened but I would be interested to hear from someone who has actual experience.

Thank you

Fine, just check your horse daily for ticks, deer carry ticks.

I used to look after horses on a yard that had deer (in a seperate field) the only time the horses ever looked was the first few times they saw them .. After that no issues even when the whole herd was running
