I was wondering how much time people spend with their youngsters? I am considering taking on a beautiful rising 2 year old Section D gelding who has a lovely laid back temperament. He will live out most of the time but I will have a stable if required. I plan to do some ground work and grooming, picking up feet etc etc weekly but was wondering just how much time he will need on a daily basis. I only ask because I won't always have time to do things with him every day but I will go down and see him every day and I will have the yard owner check on him daily for me. Will this be enough handling for a youngster or should I do more or will he be okay with me not doing stuff with him every day? I plan to spend at least a couple of hours doing hands on things at the weekends but during the week it will just be a quick check and maybe some carrots etc ...
