I started doing what you are talking about 6 years ago. Actually 'fell' into it. I'm in the middle of central Kentucky horse country and first rate boarding stables charge $10.00 a day and up. Outside horses on pasture with plank fence in 1 acre paddocks go for $100 per month plus feed and hay. I provide economy boarding for folks. Half my customers are young folks (teens and 20's) where cost is really a factor and a few brood mare strings for some tier 2 stables. I charge $45.00 per month for pasture and water with WIRE fence. Hay must be bought from me. Any care besides putting out the hay is their responsibility. I get a contract written by my lawyer for each boarder (I charge the boarder the $35 for this also). Contract stipulates that the owner of the horse is responsible for everything (liability, death of the horse, damages, etc all I am responsible for is maintaining the fence). It started out with 6 brood mares as collateral on a hay bill, last winter I had 99 horses for 5 different customers. Right now I've got 36.
