It doesn't really matter what state, but a miniature pony should have a highly grassy area, half an acre should be enough for one, but 1-2 is capable of holding more. Must be a field, but if that is not available then hay is a must year round Very expensive!

A full acre should provide enough grass to feed the miniature horse without providing hay or grain (this depends on the quality of the land and the horse). If you provide hay and grain and make sure the horse gets daily exercise, you'd be able to get away with less land. It also depends on land zoning laws--in many suburban areas there are requirements for the amount of land you must have for livestock. These laws are usually by county and probably treat a miniature horse the same as a normal horse, so they may require an entire acre of land for one.

What do you need to own a miniature horse in your backyard?

Miniature or draft, a horse is considered livestock. There are very specific laws and regulations that pertain to livestock and/or farm animals. The first thing you need to do is find out if your property is zoned to allow horses. If the zoning is right then you need to provide a shelter and good fencing for your mini. If you have neighbors close it is advised to make sure they won't mind having a horse next door. There is the smell, manure disposal, fly control, dust problem to name a few. This is an important point. You won't enjoy your mini if neighbors are complaining and calling the code enforcement on you. I have given you a place to start so do your homework checking with the county and good luck.
