They're all "pets", basically. My boyfriend's dad used to do carriage rides and stuff with them, but hasn't for quite awhile. Pete was just rescued last spring from the Amish auction where he was bought by a butcher but b/f's dad bought him from the guy. All of the Belgians are already trained to pull, and Pete is supposedly ready to ride but I've never attempted it. Boomer is also a riding horse, the previous owner weighed over 400 pounds and couldn't ride a "normal" horse, so Boomer was his trail horse.
We go through one 50 pound bag of sweet feed a day divided into 2 feedings and one bale of hay between them at night... they have 13 acres to graze on during the day.
