    But enough land?

    ""“I normally recommend two acres for the first horse and one additional acre for each additional horse,” said Mike Yoder, Extension Assistant Professor & Specialist Extension Horse Husbandry at North Carolina State University.

    “This acreage allows you to implement different management plans with a reasonable expectation that you will not over-graze your pastures,” he added.""

    From: How Much Land is Needed Per Horse?

    If you try to keep one at your current place will need to run a little tractor hard to keep up with the fertilizer being spread by the horses.

    I have an aunt that is a horse woman and I have the same opinion.

    I'm burning out on demoing the mobile.

    May need to prioritize mowing a fire break around the buildings, before the neighbors do something stupid this weekend.

    Tainy and muggy ( a lot like OH-HI-OH I suppose ).

    Report states heavy stench of plastic last Thursday.

    How well are you acclimatizing to the aroma?

    At least they are less objectionable than meat eaters.
