Can't give you any advice specific to your area, but with only 7 horses it sounds like your haymaking adventure is as big a drain (if not more) as the horses themselves (would be in our area anyway). Another drain is mutt horses (or any animal you want to do anything with besides eat yourself). It doesn't cost any more to feed a well bred, pedigreed animal that you can breed ( to another pedigreed animal of the same breed) and sell the offspring when things pick up a little. Too many people throw a male and female together and make a baby that floods the market and drives prices down. A lot of folks here are switching to western riding because it's not as stuffy, you get a different crop of (not so stuffy) people, and equipment is minimal and easier to keep up.
I wouldn't wish boarding someone else's horse on my worst enemy....
Maybe you can sell it as a restructuring??? Get rid of the drains and replace them with something that gives back. Good spouse advise also :roll: .
