Trailer Wanted

I'm looking for a small stock trailer to transport my nubians. Home made would be fine as long as its road safe. I live in upstate NY.

How many do you have to transport? If it's not very many, a large crate in the bed of a pickup truck works great. Or you can put a tarp down in the back (trunk area) of an SUV. I've transported 10 goats in a chevy suburban before, and 5 in a subaru outback

We looked at 2 horse trailers,seemed like a good size and are plentiful and can be quite cheap,under $900 a lot of times.

Ended up buying a 16 foot stock trailer,WAY too big unless we start hauling 20 goats at a time but was cheap and we can use it to haul fencing and such.

I have been transporting them in the back of my SUV...but can only fit 2 at a time. I need a little more room. Also I have 2 miniature ponies I want to transport. They weight 350 lbs. each, but are only 34 inches high. So, if you have something suitable, and live within the NY capital district, send me a message. Thanks.
