Re: Owning / handling / managing Stallions
|
I'm no expert, infact I claim stallion-noviceness HOWEVER I have made a few observations....
A very calm stallion on our yard is wound up by our menopausal, HRT, hormonal YO's wife. It almost seems to pass though to him. He is an angel for our YO, who as a bloke doesn't have the same hormonal changes and rushes each month.
Manners, manners, manners. Although that goes for mares, geldings and stallions. Making sure the boundaries and rules are in place before they get hyped up, once they are on a hormone rush you can't teach anything, just reinforce ground rules that should already be in place.
