EQUESTRIAN ANSWERS MOST GOOGLED HORSE QUESTIONS!

[@sk3llyb0nes]

I love how Peach through half the video was like "GIVE ME MORE HAY WOMAN!!" Also, Peach is absolutely adorable and gorgous

[@xkeepflying]

Also about that vomit thing, the cardiac sphincter that separates the esophagus from the stomach is way stronger in horses than other animals, which is also a reason they can’t throw up

[@SikkyCheesecake]

The cardiac sphinser? Is a little thing that opens and closes when they swallow, same with humans and other animals, this is so food cannot get into the lungs.. but with horses this is a lot stronger so it pretty much impossible to vomit. If they eat toooo much and their stomach is full (when they get too much grain at once) then food could come out of their nose, the vet has to empty their throat and stomach (and in between, dont know what that is called in english) if that doesnt happen the horse can die... Edit: sorry for my english, im dutch..

[@someonesomewhere9115]

Tjitske Ronner In between the throat and stomach is the esophagus.

[@AyuuLea]

"When do horses start racing? Far too early" YES! Seriously. They start racing these horses when their bodies are still developing thus leaving permanent damage. If the racing industry actually put the well being of the horses first (which is the number 1 rule in equestrian) instead of money, I probably wouldn't have as much of an issue with the industry. However reality says otherwise so I have nothing but disdain for it.

[@lillyharper7708]

I agree however statistics prove that race related injuries are far more common in older racers than 2-3 year olds

[@AyuuLea]

@@lillyharper7708 Interesting. I wonder if that's when the wear and tear starts to kick in.

exactly. finally someone who does not defend the racing industry

[@lillyharper7708]

@some one where is the evidence that supports this, I dont support the racing industry but that just sounds barbaric. So under your theory bones will become brittle with work, that is not normal but a medical condition. If that was true then horses kept in work would have bones snap under their weight because they have grown so brittle, right?

There is a option for barefoot horses called Scoot Boots Hoof Boots. I found it to be really good at keeping your horse's hoof and hoof wall protected. It even allows drainage so there's no fungle stuff growing, It's wide enough to let the hoof naturally flex. Many buyers have said they do many different rough sports in them and they're good for sensitive hoofs.

[@mayemperess]

Destination Addiction Samsara interesting that there are options other than shoes.

The mane is thought to keep the neck warm, and possibly to help water run off the neck if the animal cannot obtain shelter from the rain. It also provides some fly protection to the front of the horse, although the tail is usually the first defense against flies.

[@ccappa2001]

Peach is so cute!! Loved the video :)

[@stellayoungs955]

They also can’t vomit due to valve in the entrance of their stomach so it stops any food from coming back up their oesophagus

Horses have names: To know their born year Cause it’s part of their rights (every animal deserve a name) To identify them (you also can do that with numbers on horses necks) To relate them to the parents And many times for relate horses to their borne place

[@joe-z_leota]

Thanks gor answering this, even tho the question was: "Why do horses have manes?" The long hair attached to their neck

[@foreveraequestrian]

[@tracywahlen2169]

horses have manes to help in the wild.The stallions when fighting for a herd or a mare they like to grab on it to make it so the other stally can nip,kick,or rear at the other stallion.by the way im only nine love your channel

[@natalie4973]

Ruminants have four stomach chambers. Cows are ruminants, but horses are monogastric. A typical sign of a ruminant is crewing cud. ( I know she got that right, just adding more to it!) Where I am from shoes are not needed. Mostly they are used in rocky area to keep rocks out of their frogs, to have traction on ice, or for special events like the slick shoes that allow reining horses to slide. This was a fun video!

[@abiscuitofhay]

Do you ever clip their manes completely off (hogging)? I's very common in my sport (campdrafting) and makes my horses look so tidy and elongates their necks.

[@joelenemoloney6720]

Hogging the mane is so tidy. You just need to ensure your leave their forelock, otherwise they look weird.

[@abiscuitofhay]

Joelene Moloney yeah that is true

[@annastanley9707]

Absolutely loved the sound effects and attitude from miss Peach in the intro!!😂😂❤️🐴

[@someonesomewhere9115]

I’m my experience horses paw either out of irritability or because they want attention that isn’t being given to them.

[@emmi4443]

Fun fact: shoe arent necessary for horses, horses' feet naturally absorb impact, and putting shoes on them can give a negative effects, again it depends on your horse and what your training is like.

[@lizschrijen2861]

Hi Han! The other reason horses paw the ground is to explore the surface of a certain ground for any danger, for example the trailer surface or in water. 😊

Dear Han, I love your channel! You have so many great ideas and keep everything interesting, informative and funny but you still are modest and clearly say when for example you don't know something. Also I really like your taste in clothing, even tough I am not an English rider, I like to watch your clothing haul videos. I think I don´t have to tell you this, but keep on going! :-) One thing I was wondering about is this: Is horsekeeping as horsefriendly like at your barn in the most part of Australia, that you keep them outside in a run-in shed? Exept for racing stables and such of course, but how is it for horses used for recreational purposes? All the best from Austria, Elisabeth

[@Talon5Karrde]

Three questions with the cross-tie you have there. 1) Why are they both hooked to the bottom ring of the halter rather then the side rings? I thought that cross-ties were supposed to hook into the side rings. I thought that is why the rings were there rather then just sewn strapping... 2) Why is the cross-tie so loose that your horse can eat? I thought that the cross-tie was to keep them centered. 3) Aren't there different snaps that can release under tension?

5:12 Apples without the core? I've always given my horse a full apple lol

[@briarrr__]

It won't bother them. Just like us it would take hundreds, for them probably thousands, of the seeds to kill a horse. In other words the entire apple is okay to eat but it depends on how mant you're going to give them in a certain time frame so you know when to core them.

[@weezybean9323]

Apple seeds contain a chemical called cyanide which is technically poison but it will take thousands to actually harm a human or horse.

[@lizstaniforth5401]

the horse is what's called ' monogastric' meaning ' one stomach' which means they have a very similar system to us whereas a cow is a ' ruminant' meaning they have four stomachs the rumen, reticulum, omasum and abomasum. basically, the food gets swallowed into the first stomach then thrown up into the mouth to be chewed up more ( chewing the cud) then its swallowed again into the second stomach and then moved to the other two to ferment and absorb before the intestines.

[@lachlanhouck9258]

There’s going to be a lot of controversy with this comment, but about the shoes: Horse hooves expand and contract with each step. When on the ground, they’re expanded. When in the air, contracted. Same for when standing or being in the cross ties. What position is a hoof in when a shoe is put on? Contracted. The shoe keeps the horses hoof from expanding, which doesn’t allow blood to get pushed back up through the leg as easily or properly. So no, horses do not need shoes. Even horses with feet like fletch’s, can be fixed with proper trimming (evenly distributing weight throughout the sole ridge, buttress, seat of corn, and only very little weight on the sole wall (weight on the sole wall causes stress on the lamina, which is the muscle-type tissue that connects the hoof wall to everything inside. When it is stressed, it’s easier for it to separate and you get a flare towards the bottom of the hoof. increased stress causes horses to founder)). If a horse’s feet are being trimmed correctly, they will not need extra support. Once you can rehab a hoof (help it grow higher heel, which allows for room for the digital cushion and uprighting coffin/pedal bond, which acts as a shock absorber and helps support the tendons in the leg (which is witnessed by an uprighting of the pastern angle, instead of letting the fetlocks fall back and stress the tendons).

Ruminats have four stomachs (Cows, sheep, and goats are examples of ruminants). Horses have one stomach and so they are monogastric (means one stomach). Also horses can’t vomit because they are hindgut fermentors and it makes it physically impossible for them to vomit.

[@RachelBuckIsMe]

Horses can’t/shouldn’t eat lawn clippings because if you’ve ever experienced that “fresh cut grass” smell, that’s the clippings fermenting. They go really fast. On top of that they’re sooooo easy to eat in huge amounts too fast. Large amounts of fermenting food in the gut cause gas and colic, which can be deadly.
