The key phrase is “marginal cost”, businesses make money when volume is high and marginal cost is low. You will have low volume and high marginal cost, so the price you offer would have to be high in order to make a profit. If you want to make money off of this you need to approach it as a (potential) small business owner and consider, eg, the cost of labor (even if the labor is you), cost of wear and tear, etc.

God this and then some. I had a boarder call me at 4am once because she wanted me to go take her horse’s temperature. He wasn’t sick. She had been taken his temperature several times a day for a week or two - first time horse owner and I think she had gotten a Horse Health book for her birthday or something. I very firmly put her back in reality. What some people think is reasonable is just beyond me, not restricted to the horse world :lol:
