They are... oddly sensitive in some ways, and incredibly resilient in others.

    kinda wish I had a horse. I hear they're expensive to maintain though.

    Can confirm.

    Expensive every month, expensive to treat, expensive to shoe, expensive to house/feed/etc.

    We are actually looking at property to do some farming, and a chunk of it will be for retired horses.

    love the enthusiasm! wish I could afford a farm.. and if I did have one I wouldn't bet on it.

    Well my wife is the one who knows her way around a farm, she'll be running it, and I'll be doing random manual labor as required.

    Its been ridiculous finding the right property though... What used to be $300-400k only 3 years ago is now selling for over a million. Its nuts. So most likely going empty land and building cheap to start....
