I have 2 old boys - 23 & 40. I have been on my current yard 10 years but it has gone downhill over the last few years - too many horses, poor grazing which is never treated or fed, muck spread with horse poo and far too little land. The menage is never levelled and its expensive. Nice stables, a solarium and a treadmill ( which is great in winter)
I could move to excellent grazing, separate paddock for mine, loads of well looked after land, nice stables and nice people. No menage which i don't use now anyway so all good but..... 2 weeks isolation in the field with no stable some natural shelter and no one to fetch in in winter if i finish work late which often happens.
Do i move or not? 2 weeks in the field in this heat and taking them away from friends and their home! One has hind lameness issues so struggles and is top dog so injures himself so would be better paddocked but cant bear the thought of them in the heat or being unhappy - what should i do........
