So funny seeing the different personalities to the dewormer. Happy to know they get a tasty treat afterwards.

I'm most familiar with birds like chickens, but ruminant animals, I am having to do my research.

@garypoortvliet2478 Жыл бұрын
Just so you know, horses are not ruminants. They have a relatively normal gastrointestinal tract. That is why you have to be careful what and how much you feed them. Cows and goats are ruminants, and can eat a lower quality of hay, and are more forgiving on overfeeding.

"Dont skip on your horse nutricion" wel feeding 2x a day is foo little. A horse i designed to eat almost constantly. When you feed less then 3x a day there stomach acid gets too stong. I feed AT LEAST 3x a day. When my horse was still stalled at my home i fed her 5x a day. The feeding ball is a really good idea tho. It keeps your horse thinking and helps to let your horse eat slowly over a longer time. I do it with a regular bucked with holes. My horse really likes it. Also its better to ragularly get your horse checked for worms instead of deworming. I know deworming is made to not harm your horse but ive seen several times that horses get sick of too much deworming. Its poison after all and why would you give it if they dont need it. I have my horse for 3 years now and she has never had worms.

I drive past a house on my way to Jeff City that has a pretty brown horse, but the thing that makes my blood boil is the fact that I can see it's ribs every single time. Makes me want to knock some sense into the owners of that poor thing, horses are living beings too and need to be taken good care of. Why would you have a horse just to let it become malnourished and scrawny? It don't make no sense. Makes me mad when I see cattle with scars or lesions on their face from being let loose into fields and not being looked after by the people who own the land, too. I love cats, dogs, goats, chickens, you name it. But something about cattle and horses makes me feel differently, and I'd fight someone if they knew they were mistreating their animals. Not being informed is one thing, that can always be changed and I'm liable to be much more understanding if it's clear they just didn't know and thought they were doing fine, kind of like people who own obese cats and don't know they're killing them. But I can not for the life of me stand folk who don't provide for their animals properly on purpose. Every time I see a healthy horse, a smile creeps along my face that I couldn't stifle even if I wanted to. I just love the damn things. Pretty, compassionate, and strong.

There’s so much to learn tho. Almost seems a bit overwhelming, like for one I didn’t know about the hay ratio. I thought hay was hay…🤦🏼‍♀️ now our friends have welcomed us to come visit her horse at the local stables. Is horse therapy a thing?

I’m wondering if you can give me a precise breakdown/summary of all the expenses. Hay, grain, farrier, deworming, etc. with rough estimates of quantity’s. I want to buy a horse but I’m having a really hard time figuring out how much it will cost monthly. I have my own place to keep it.

@SoaringSpirit1111 2 жыл бұрын
cW I will give you an idea of monthly expenses. I am purposely excluding board. I have one senior Appendix gelding, he is my rescue of 5 years. Grain/ feed. 50 lb bag 2x per month. 26.00 each. 1 3qt scoop in the morning & one at night. Alfalfa hay 21.99 per 2 string bale. One per week. 3 flakes per day. Plus his daily supplements. Figure about 150 per month on feed alone. Farrier comes every 6 to 8 weeks to trim feet. 30 dollars. Dentist 2xs per year 90 per visit. Dewormer every 3 months. 10 dollars. Vet appointment for annual vaccination. Add 100. You can add on extras. I buy good grain/ good hay & with his supplements he does wonderfully. Hope that gives you an idea.

Hello!! New beginner horse owner here, I very new to having a horse. He became my family horse a year ago when he ran to our home and our family was asked if we would like to buy him we had just moved to our land 5 acres in TX and my parents agreed to purchase him from the neighbors who could no longer care for him. We are city folk who are doing the best we can to learn as we go. He currently free feeds foliage all day on our 5 acres and gets 8 pds of grain each morning. Is there something that needs to be added to his diet? He is a hefty boy but I worry we all right providing him the best diet. any guidance is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for this video! I love horses sooo much a did riding a while back but it didn’t work out in the end. Moving to Tennessee in June and probably going to take riding lessons again!! I’m devoted to learning all this is about learning horses till I can definitely take care of one 😏 I like watching informational videos about horses as well :D Do you ever get that feeling of connection when your around a horse?? Cause I always feel that but it’s probably just me LOL thanks again ;))))

Hi so 1. about how much does a well trained horse cost?? One good enough for a kid to ride on. 2. I like the looks of your ranch. I was surprised when you said how hot it was. can I ask what state you are in. Not to contact but just curious. I thought it was like OR or ID.

So I'm in college and cannot get a horse anytime soon, but I grew up with them and hope to own several one day. I'm really curious about how to budget for a horse and get started while also being smart financially. If you have any tips or advice, that would be fantastic.
@BarrettHouser
@BarrettHouser 3 жыл бұрын
Really hard to say although I love where your mind is at. My opinion, just set aside money for when college is done and you can commit to a horse. Then figure out what your post college situation is like and see if a horse is in your cards.

Although i love this video because of the horses an their personalities! Its not the process of buying a horse for the first time. I wanna know if there’s licensing that needs done , is there a department of horsey services that come in to make sure its horse proof an safe, whats the paperwork process. Is insurance mandatory, is there two different kinds of insurance, like one for medical an one for stable/ barn home insurance for the horses? Do u have to pay taxes on them every year like u would a car? Is registration a thing? What to look for when buying a horse, what to avoid doing. How to tell if a horse is a good fit for u. Is there a probationary stage to make sure they get along with the other animals. What ways people try to lie about things regarding the horse an how to spot some red flags. I mean i need some in depth info regarding the buying the horse for a first time
