I measured yesterday, and estimated that we could put together a roughly 260x350 corral. I thhink we might just be able to swing this. And I pretty much was banking on hay and grain, I've made some contacts to give us a decent price on that stuff.
My daughter's really starting to get her jumps down, and I ready to let her take the next step of ownership.
You should be fine with two horses in that corral. It sounds you will be exercising them frequently so that's good. Horses are a never-ending expense as I'm sure you are already aware. My wife loves owning horses but hates the expense. It just goes with the territory. Good luck!
