I've owned and been around horses all my life, but some of the horse folks I deal with creep me out!!
Got a Lady boarder with a mini, big pony (14 hands) and a riding horse Paso Fino 25 yrs old They put down 6 weeks ago. The Paso Fino had Laminitis...old and overfed by Her. I was just starting to bale 1st cut of mainly timothy, late Orchard and in best spots about 15% alfalfa. She said my hay was too rich for the Paso and paid a guy in Southern Wi. $11.00/bale for last years 1st cut orchard grass. Now, they want credit for the bales they fed their horse! I told them at the time that most of my hay had already headed out..RFV and carbs going down and probably no richer than the crap they bought that was a year old...I also said that was their choice and refused to even discuss it. Lucky for me they found a place with 2 acres and I only have to put up with Her for another month!!!
