[QUOTE="ewemustbekidding, post: 3359278, member: 50466"] Just in case it's useful to someone, bear in mind that there are a lot of horse owners who aren't looking for conventional livery. There are horse owners out there with a number of horses who would jump at the chance of a shared 'free range' barn for all their horses. There are also a lot of owners who would like a more natural style of horse care, especially people with barefoot horses I.e. no shoes, and this type of owner likes rough or old pasture rather than lots of clover / high nitrogen levels and perhaps even a track system. A track system is something like this [URL]http://www.all-natural-horse-care.com/paddock-paradise.html[/URL] or [URL]http://www.abbottsviewlivery.co.uk/trackequicentral-system/4590680876[/URL] An example of a 'natural' livery type set up is [URL]http://whisperingback.co.uk/livery/[/URL] ( I have nothing to do with any of these links btw, just trying to demonstrate the different types of livery). It may suit those of you with old dairy tracks, hilly areas or rock strata quite close to the surface of some of your land and could even allow you to use the inside section for hay with decent elec fencing. Hope this makes sense - I do agree with getting a decent contract in place and going on local recommendations as well. [/QUOTE]
