[QUOTE="ChrisB, post: 265380, member: 122"] My daughters have been saving their money and think they will have enough to buy a couple horses next spring. Now I have to figure out where to put them. One area that I was kind of thinking about has some Norway Pine that are 18-20 feet tall and also some Spruce (Colorado Blue and Black Hills) tress that are 10-12 feet tall. My question is would these trees possibly be toxic at all to horses? And also if it is not toxic would the horses eat the needles and bark and possibly kill the trees? Also if they get horses I thought we might as well put them to work a little bit and use them to move cows when needed. My cows have never even seen a horse before; what is a good way to avoid having the cattle run through the fences when they see a rider on a horse for the first time? Thanks, Chris [/QUOTE]
