About 75 to 80% of the expense in keeping get a horse is feeding that bugger. They eat about 15 to 20 pounds of hay per day. Along with 4 to 6 pounds of grain. A 50lbs bag of feed is $11 per bag and a 60lbs square bale of hay is $10. You end up feeding about $35 per week per horse. That's food alone then ever 6 weeks you get their hooves trimmed and that's $40, twice ya year ya worm them, that's $20 and once a year you have the vet give them shots and cogins tested, that's $75.
