aside from the initial cost of the animal itself, it seems to range anywhere from nearly free (if you already own pasture for them to graze on and stables for them to sleep in) to upwards of $1000 a month (for room, board, feed, and grooming, if you don't have the time or space to do that all yourself)

i was interested because a horse seems like a much cooler way to navigate around a large, rural property than an atv or a jeep or something. plus grass is cheaper than gas.
