expenses such as vet bills and any
unexpected expenses.|

certain amount of
reserves held due to
the monthly expenses each month
which we have every month for the
minimum of feed and hay. We do
not want to be in debt to any of our
suppliers – this is the reason for
thekept reserves|

concerns or there are no
