I really want to get into taking my mini into nursing homes and children's hospitals this year. He has a great temperament - so that's a good first step. He is two years old. Curious as to what your experience has been doing this type of thing. Mostly interested in hearing about the most...

Do I need to worry about moving my mini from pasture to grass hay? My bigger horses go directly to it, but not sure about a mini. I'm thinking this may be a good thing to do with my mini so I can better control his intake and rule out digestion issues. Thanks!
