[RC] Help picking out a Manure Spreader - Lucie Hess

Well, this is  distance riding related as the manure I
will be  spreading comes from my 3 Distance Horses
(AERC & NATRC).  I've decided I want to spread manure
on my hay fields and I have one section of pasture
that could benefit from extra nutrients.  I want to
find a small manure spreader, that doesn't need a full
sized tractor to pull it around.  Any brands/ models
that folks have, that they have good comments about?
The next issue is, what do I get to pull it with, an
ATV, a small yard tractor, or a large riding mower?

I don't plan to do much with what ever I get, I don't
mow my yard as I have a huge pond, with a very steep
dam, so I get someone who doesn't mind if his
equipment falls into the pond.  I know if I tried to
mow, I'd be rolling the thing over on the backside of
the dam and/or running smack into the pond at full
power!

I might like something that would have enough power to
push a little snow when we get it, 

So, here's a recap of my questions, what type of
Manure Spreader should I get and what should I pull it
with?  Thanks for your suggestions.
