RE: [RC] Possible Relocation to WY - bobmorrisFirst off, it never snows in Wyoming but a hell of a lot blows through! It is not how many horses per acre but how many acres per horse. Bring about ten truck loads of hay and you will be able to sell it and pay for your house. A three sided shelter is best as you only have to re-erect three sides when it blows down. Moving right before winter? You mean next week or sooner? Fireplaces burn a lot of wood and trees are a long way off. You might say the hills around Casper have been clear cut. Spring time to move the horse? You would have to travel fast as it only lasts a few days.

We are from the Midwest where there's plenty of green grass. My husband was interviewed and he got a chance to look around and of course the pastures aren't what we are used to. Questions we have are-- What is the ratio of acreage to horses? What type of horse shelter is best? Is a 3-sided lean-to OK or an enclosed barn? Will we likely need to feed hay year round? What kind of hay is most available/best to feed in that region? Should I bring some of our current hay to assist our one horse with the changeover to different hay that is out there? Approx how many bales would be best? (talking average size hand-liftable bales). We are looking at not bringing the horse out until Springtime as perhaps that would be a better time to move her? vs Moving right before winter? Human Housing Questions-- Should we look for a place with a basement or does it matter? Is a fireplace recommended or doesn't matter? Noticed lots of trailers/modulars available for sale...any thoughts on these? (we'd prefer a stick built home of course) Anything we should note in the way of acreage and/or home site that would help us determine whether or not it is a good location? (hilltop vs side of hill vs on the flat or valley-type location) Feel free to reply to me privately to avoid cluttering up RC with this off-topic subject. If you are familiar with this portion of WY, or any other region that may of similar nature/conditions, feel free to give us your comments, opinions, etc. Thanks much...trying to get prepared in advance :-) Val SweetMare55 at Yahoo dot com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
