How To Introduce A New Horse (The Right Way)

Introducing a new horse to a herd is often a dangerous and complicated task! Over the years I've seen horses kick attack and even injure each other when this is done wrong. In this video I go over some pointers I've implemented that have helped me have much less fuss when two horses are introduced for the first time! Sometimes horses still fight when introduced because their pecking order instinct is so strong. Making sure you keep an eye on the horses for the first few hours is always a good idea!

Also, when introducing horses to a herd, don't be surprised if the lead horse puts the newbie in their place in the herd. Let's say there's only a herd of mares, and there is a lead mare also known as the boss mare. She sees a new mare. She's saying, "I see there's a new mare here. I better tell her who's the one in charge." She goes up to the newbie. She pins her ears, the newbie does the same - then BAM! - they get into a squabble. They argue until the newbie gives up with, "Okay, you're the boss." Never ever try to stop a horse fight. And, yes, there are boss mares just like how male horses or any male equine - gelded or not - can be leaders in the herd. In the wild, Mustang stallions don't tolerate any challengers. When a colt grows up, he will challenge his sire. The sire will yell out, "You're being kicked out, son. Start your own herd." Then he'll drive him away. Yeah, don't get scared if any of your horses start fighting. It's normal, nothing to be worried about.

He's doing better! Seems like a long road to recovery this time but my hopes are still high! I will film an update soon!

Wby cant stsllions beceith mares ? Yhey live this way in the wild

[@HorsePerfect]

Obviously they can if you’re planning on breeding them but otherwise they should be kept separate while in captivity to avoid injury and unnecessary stress on mares and foals.

Um… I’m no horse expert, but I’m pretty sure that if you’re trying to breed a stallion with a gelding… there’s some critical information that’s missing… 😉

I thought it sounded funny but I did say mares and stallions right before that 😂 Either way its 2023 you never know what people will try nowadays 😂
