how many horses have you got?
do you have or own transport for them or not if not what do you usually do to get somewhere?
and do you rent a yard or livery or own your own yard?

ill start i have 3 horses i have my own transport at the mo in a 3.5t lorry but cant decide wether to sell it or not and i rent a self contained yard to myself.
 
I have 3 too, I keep them at home on my own yard and on saturday my first livery ever is arriving, I have a trailer but i am thinking of selling it as i would rather have a lorry in the future.
 
We have 1 and a half :) (our own fella and a 50 % time/cost share of a friends cob)
Keep them at livery at the other end of the village.
Have transport but only for one. Our intention is to get a double trailer and buy a 4x4 but need to get other more pressing purchases out of the way first.
 
I have four horses, three of which compete BSJA and the other is just a happy hacker. They are kept at home and I have a 7.5 tn lorry for transport

I have 2 horses and 3 Mini Shetlands = 5 :p
I have a trailer as i compete regularly
I have my own stables, very lucky :D
 
I have 6 Miniature horses and two "normal" ponies which I bought for the kids but as usual they are not interested. I had a couple of Haflingers until 3 years ago and I am now looking for a "grown" horse for me to hack out on.
I have a trailer and a Rexton
Keep them at home as I am very lucky.:D
 
I have one and a half, Well one horse one shetland :)
I rent a self contained yard to myself, and do not have my own transport. I hire my friends lorry whenever I want to go anywhere...
 
I have:-
15hh mare who as a 18 day old foal.
33in shettie
14.1hh newforest pony
I rent my own land and built a stable and feed shed.
I do not have transport my trailer is too old and rickety for me to trust to transport my horses so it,s used for storage. I never trasport my horses anywhere as I just hack and do not compete, if I needed transport for an emergency my friends would help me who do have trailers/boxes.
 
I have 5 horses, a 2 yr old filly, 4, 5, 6 and 16 year old geldings. All kept at a rented yard. I have a 3 horse lorry and compete regularly. Next year we are building a yard at home and will be renting grazing next door :)
 
I have 3: 17 yr old tb, 3 year old appy, 2 year old exmoor.
We have our own land and stables
We have a trailer and range rover sport but hoping to change it for a 3.5t lorry if i can persuade my dad as hoping to do a lot more comps next year with 3 year old (will be 4) and tb.

0.5 of a horse I share
His owners used to have a lorry but now just hire a trailer if they/we wanna go somewhere.
Hes at a very basic livery yard
 
how many horses have you got? 2.
do you have or own transport for them or not if not what do you usually do to get somewhere? Nope, and we're not allowed a box as we don't go anywhere (we don't go anywhere because we don't have our own transport...argh), if theres something we really want to do we ask one of the other liveries very nicely.
and do you rent a yard or livery or own your own yard? At a livery yard.
 
I've downsized to 5 now. I have a small 7.5t and I rent and rund a livery yard that we live on so they are at home.
I event one, BD another and have my older mare, her two year old and a yearling. :)
 
i have two horses. my friend very kindly takes me out in her 3.5T lorry (i'm not confident enough to have a trailer or do the driving because of a nasty trailer accident last year) - i only ever take one out at a time so that's no problem. i keep them both at livery.
 
I have 8 ponies...4 mares, 2 fillies, a gelding and a colt foal ranging in height from approx 27ins ( the foalie :D ) to 14.1hh, and aged from 7 weeks to 26 years old. I keep them all at home, compete in showing and have a Disco+Ifor for transport :)
 
Just the one is enough for me :p
I have a 3.5T lorry because thats all I can drive on my licence
Kept at a livery yard :D
 
Have one horse, kept on part livery.
Compete at riding club and are lucky enough to be within hacking distance to shows.
Get a lift in friend's trailers when go to training out of area. Also hack to lessons or have them at own yard.
 
( 4 ) Meg and Penny (as from Saturday) are mine, Juno is my mums but counted as mine and Biggles is mine although doesn't live with me and has had a fab summer being a companion and eating lots of good grass - he is looking fab for his 28 years.
I rent a good field 2 mins down the road.
I've got a single ifor williams, towed by a mondeo. (my mum drives as i've yet to take my towing test).
