Foal Halter Training

[@readytogo6569]

Love your quiet gentleness with both the mare and the foal. That alone spoke volumes. I hope people learn from your wonderful technique, attitude, and general way of being quietly, calmly in the moment. You’re forming and teaching wonderful equine/human trust.

[@SilencespeaksmoreKelly]

Thank You so much.

[@beewill1739]

I'm only a teen right now, but when I get older I want to own and maybe breed a few horses. This video is amazing, and you're so gentle and calm with the foals. I've seen people get so angry, and they just yell at them. I hate it when they do that, I guess they don't understand that the foals are afraid of them. They also had the foals in a round pen, the mother was in the stall. It was about some abusive owners, or something. but I'll always remember this video, and will probably find it again when I'm older. Thanks for making such an inspiring video :)

[@katygriffith5588]

There are multiple ways and multiple approaches with everything. I rather start them young like this. Thank you for the video. I have been needing ideas. Possibly breeding my mare.

[@maddielogan1623]

Katy Griffith I know it helps me a lot with my pony’s

[@gerrycoleman7290]

Try and understand on how horses go through this process. This is completely interfering with how horses interact with their foals and the introduction to the herd.

[@kiddfaith4397]

You were so slow and gentle! That’s a good way to go, to build and keep all that trust there.

[@ruru7494]

Awwww this is great advise! She's so cute ☺ frisky little foal ^-^

[@laurenbacall6095]

I'm back, I ended up getting a trainer from the area. She got a halter on him in about an hour, while in a stall, with mommy in the stall next to him. He kept it on for about a week. Then I was able to take it off him when he was back in his stall and put it on before I let him out. He's now 6 months and he comes over and lowers his head to put his halter on. Getting him away from his mama really helped.

[@SunnyReflector]

My foals have a halter on as soon as they hit the ground. Around 2 months is when we teach them to lead. You have a lot of respect with them that way

[@DoubleDogDare54]

Same here. They are foaled straight into the halter and never know not having one on. My grandfather always said, you break a colt when its young or it will break your neck when its older. The younger you start them, the easier for everyone.

[@SunnyReflector]

True that. I've seen "bullies" that weren't taught young. I wouldn't want to deal with them.

[@Porschesvideos]

SunnyReflector so when you put the halter on upon birth, how long do you leave it on?? do you take it on and off daily? and how long a session do you leave it on?

[@Turboy65]

You have a nice way of handling horses. Obviously you get their trust and respect early and there's no doubt you love to work with horses. I'm sure you get great results out of them.

[@alsosusieq2susan142]

That's a beautiful mare and a lovely foal.

[@maddielogan1623]

This is going to help me. I go to my cousins to teach her to train a horse and I use to do it the hard way. But this is really going to help thanks

[@hannahwileman8014]

Hi... My colt is now 6 weeks old and has only had a halter on once to get him in a trailer, however he will NOT let me put a halter on him but I have been doing it In the field.. Should I be doing it In a stable? Can I please have some advice on what to do? Thanks

[@MsThunderkitty]

Love your videos, you've got a good thing going here. I have one 2 day old filly and another foal about to drop in a couple weeks. Did not know the mares were pregnant when I bought them. So learning as I go with my little surprises.

[@tjwheatcraft]

This was really helpful. My 12 yr. old is training her first foal and she needed this info in a big way. Thanks so much for sharing!!

[@mickeynash5450]

This is really a good video about handling foals and applying halters. Love how gentle Kelly is with the horses. I would rather be gentle with them and start them off being used to touch and holding. He is so calm and reassuring I can see why the horses love him. Thank you. Subscribed and looking forward to more videos. Thank you.

[@marikawaldraff8223]

This kind of training you can take only, when mummy let you. The most horses let nobody on the foal because the mother-horses do not trust in humans. The humans are afraid of the mother-horses and so they fight with a six months old foal - only because of this facts. You make a great job- stressless for mummy and baby! I habe so much foals and every baby loves to cuddle with humans, when they learn it that way!

[@loreemorrow2273]

You did a great job. I see nothing wrong with this. just having expierence my self that the older they are the harder they are to work with at times. Some people may see this as cruel but I don't see anything cruel about it. Its part of training.

[@gerrycoleman7290]

It is part of ignorance.............People that imprint do not understand horses.

[@theresahoward8334]

found that most interesting we have haltered our foal a few times he is now two weeks old at first we had to have someone holding the mother as she is very very overprotective and can be quite aggressive she is calming down some now thank goodness onwards and upwards now to leading hope this process is a painless as haltering was

[@SilencespeaksmoreKelly]

Thank you kindly for watching and we're glad this video has helped you. Remember to be patient when leading. Start in the stall getting them to give to the pressure of the lead. Always pull from the side - never from straight on. This way you pull them off balance instead of against locked legs. Once they are comfortable in the stall they will be good outside the stall. The first time they will try to run away. Be ready. Hold against their pull and relax when they do. Good luck and have fun.

[@SilencespeaksmoreKelly]

We have contact with the foal as soon as they are born. We get a halter on each of them within the first week in the stall. Everyone's situation is different. If you have them out in a corral or pasture we suggest putting them into a small area within the first month if possible. What we stress is contact with the mare & foal and getting both of them comfortable having people around. From a marketing point people love seeing a well haltered & mannered mare & foal when they come to visit.

[@grandejagames]

This is done exactly the right way! I've now been around foals for a decent time and we here always halter the foals at the age of 2 days. We halter the foal gently (it doesn't even really fight back as it's so tiny) and then we take it's mom to halter too and we lead them out to pasture (they spend 2 first days in the barn). We lead the mother as always, but for the foal we just really keep hold of the leading rope and let it follow it's mom at it's own pace (we dont relly lead it yet, but we make it clear to it that someday it will be lead with a halter). The babies become the nicest horses i know. They learn to accept halter super fast. As for the foals that have been "let to peace with their mom" for 2 weeks... jesus... they're terrible when we're trying to put a halter on. They back to walls and doors, they neigh for their mum making the mom nervous, they sometimes kick when we touch them as they haven't been propely touched in two weeks.. So all u "horse lovers" stop whining that it's better for the foal if u wait two weeks or more. It really isnt. It makes the mom and foal more nervous and the foal can hurt itself as it panics when somethings on it's face...

[@SilencespeaksmoreKelly]

Very well done Lauren. Keep up the good work. Sometimes outside help is necessary and you did the right thing. Wishing you many successful years ahead with your colt.

[@apsimmy7236]

this guy knows what hes doing...hes good

[@SilencespeaksmoreKelly]

Of course. You can start this at any time. Just follow the same steps. Sometimes if a mare is nervous it is better to wait for a little while. Spend time with the new foals and let them get used to you. The more time you spend with them the better. We have one little filly that was very timid. With her we didn't put a halter on her for a couple of weeks until she was comfortable with us being around her. We did spend lots of time sitting in the stall with her letting her come to us.

[@whisperhorsemanship8709]

Good ideas. i like using a rope under the tail and on the halter.

[@4ABRYANT]

This was a very helpful and good video, Im going to have a baby foal soon and this helped a lot! Thanks!

[@gerrycoleman7290]

.................helping to perpetuate ignorance.

[@sharonmorgan256]

Good job, I love what you do here.

[@laurenmarmotta1250]

thanks i have always wanted to know i have a horse it had a foal a couple of weeks ago so this might be a challenge well just have to wait and see thanks any way.

[@lizstaniford4328]

I think this is a lovely video I'm sure that foal will have had a great start to life which is lovely to see although I'm a little worried about the amount of people who say leave the foal alone... I wonder do those people know anything about working with horses you could see from the foals body language that he wasn't stressed in the slightest

[@SilencespeaksmoreKelly]

Thank you so much. When she was of age his filly went on to saddle training and excelled. It was like she just needed to be reminded of what she already knew.

[@gerrycoleman7290]

Such ignorance. You see what you want to see.

[@ambervantassel3816]

I had a mustang foal I started to hauler break when he was a day old, I got kicked and bit but overall it went well. This is how I did it. Hauler break: one to 18 days. Putting a blanket on him: 18 to 30 days Saddle breaking: one to two years. Saddle bags: two to three years Hot shoe: three to four years. And it all went well, Daredevil was an orphaned mustang foal and I wanted to started to get him used to all that ASAP, he died when he was 36 in horse years so he was 100.5 in human years so he was an old horse when he died.

[@HucklebridgeC]

Love your slow, easy and gentle way. Makes handling those babies so much better for everyone, especially baby & momma. Look forward to more of your videos and humble attitude. Thanks from a new subscriber from Texas.

[@LJOS21]

Hey buddy good stuff!!! I from Venezuela. I'm hoping that my little horse born in two months and is helpful to know what I have learned with you today. regards

[@SilencespeaksmoreKelly]

Have fun with your new foal. Spend time everyday getting your foal comfortable with you. Thank You kindly for watching.

[@Saartje05]

+Brickatmyhead If you leave the foal and take time instead of falling over it and forcing a halter on the little baby in the first day then it works perfectly too.

[@Snark51GAME]

We rescued a mare last fall and she'd been out in the pasture for about 10 years with no human contact, left out with many studs and so she had two fillies that we knew of. She had them while she was there and had no human help whatsoever. She came here with her recent filly who was two years old and she was also pregnant. She had her filly a couple of days ago for the first time (We think) in a barn with people around to help, but she is really overprotective, aggressive, and she'll bite or kick you whenever you come near. How could we get her to calm down so we could work with her filly some more?

[@SilencespeaksmoreKelly]

Start by ignoring the filly and spending your time with the mare. You have to build trust with the mare. Basically to the mare you are a predator and she does not understand you have her best interest at heart. Gain her trust and the foal will get curious and start to relax around you. Remember you are dealing with a wild horse that was raised inside a fence. You are dealing with all the basic instincts of predator/prey. Start feeding and watering the mare by hand every day so that the mare starts to rely on you for her basic needs. She doesn't eat or drink unless you are there. As time passes she will get more comfortable and so will the foal.

[@Snark51GAME]

Thanks! I've been gaining her trust and both the mare and filly are getting more comfortable with me.

[@sassychimpanzee7431]

Absolutely adorable :) And very well handled :)

[@SilencespeaksmoreKelly]

Thank you so much for spreading the word about the importance of early handling of foals. What is written on a foals mind in the first week is a major part of how they interact with people the rest of their lives. Make sure the impression is a good one!

[@rashedarenaerts4643]

That foal is so adorable

[@prettyponybaby2007]

This is how we halter broke babies at my old work, but we had the adjustable halters and would make the nose big and put it on like that, then buckled it. Far less dangerous than other places ive worked at.

[@prettyponybaby2007]

Except, we would leave it on and put a butt rope on (not attached to the halter) and take them outside, they'd have it on while they were turned out, then it would be taken off when they came back in

[@onegoodturngetsmostofthebl7499]

Right approach.... good job.

[@katelynolive3275]

haw do you get a horse to were you can else get the brittle on it

[@SilencespeaksmoreKelly]

Enjoy your foals and work with them a lot. Don't be afraid to handle them. In the beginning you might try having someone holding the mares if she is nervous. Don't hold her too tight and always let her keep an eye on her foal. Once she figures out you aren't a threat and won't take the foal away, they normally settle down and pay little attention when you are in with them. Private Message me on Facebook with any questions you have.

[@SilencespeaksmoreKelly]

Thank you so much for taking the time to watch our videos. We really appreciate your comment and question. When a foal starts to bite we don't like to hit or slap them. We have found that just grabbing their lip and pinching very hard (like you are biting them back) works best. It is how mom would reprimand them if they are getting too rough or nursing too hard. Please let us know if you have any other questions or comments. Remember pinch REALLY hard. Be Consistent. Thank You kindly.

[@artmaniaclondon1722]

hi me and my familly just started a ranch of arabian and quarter horses and i would like to know is it easier to halter a foal when they are 6 weeks to 1 month old ?

[@TheTriplecrownstable]

The mother is beautiful!!😍

[@teegangrimson4587]

good work silencespeaksmore

[@giannigarza9532]

My colt Champ is 8 months old and I bought him about a month ago, very head shy and nervous around humans, but I worked with him since day 1 and he's less head shy, problem is is that he does not like to be lead around and stands his ground, I'm only 13 and he's twice my weight, but I do not want to handle him with force, what do I do?

[@giannigarza9532]

Btw he does not bite, he just kicks, but he never tried to kick me, he only tries to kick other people if they come too close, so that should make it easier to handle him if he doesn't hurt me, right? xD

[@SilencespeaksmoreKelly]

Gianni Garza Don't ever pull on him straight. Pull from off to the side. This will pull him off balance and he has to make a step sideways. Then stop and pet him. Let him know everything is ok. Make sure you don't get close to his hind end. Eventually you want to be leading him from his front shoulder. Lots of patience and persistence.

[@veronikapokorna9586]

I have one little task. How old is he? Thank you and this way look so good and cool :)

[@gracier2718]

[@laurenbacall6095]

There's no way I could do that on my own,he's a big guy and the mare is very nice. With help I got a halter on my colt at 1 week but haven't been able to do it again since. He's now 7 weeks and mama is just trusting me to mess with him and he loves attention just not a halter yet.

[@sassiebrat]

The only thing I know about horses is that I know it is a horse when I see one, so this question comes from ignorance. Why not put a halter on the day they are born and just leave it on? Or, leave it on and periodically take it off and put it back on?

[@SilencespeaksmoreKelly]

We never leave a halter on a baby. It would be too easy for the halter to get caught on something. That would scare the foal and possibly hurt him. Also by taking the halter off and putting back on the foal gets used to putting their nose into the halter basically them their first job and having positive interactions with us. After a week or so the foal is taught to follow us and from there taught to lead by a halter and lead rope. Before turning the mother and foal out to pasture the foal will happily help to put the halter on and lead where we ask him to go. When the foal is brought back into the barn to be weaned he already is comfortable with people, knows how to help put on the halter and leads comfortably. Weaning is then so much easier and the weanling is ready to learn new jobs with their friends.

[@sassiebrat]

🤗 Makes sense! Thanks for the reply!

[@pangayawherewolves3470]

We often. Do start em the day they are born. But you can t leave the halter on an inexperienced baby. They could injure themselves. By getting caught on something and panicking or just by scratching their head with ththeir foot and getting it caught.

[@sunnykelly4448]

How would you halter train a two year old Shetland?

[@angelicsjghts]

Duncan Kelly you can't halter break a horse (or a shetland pony) in their years. From what my grandpa has taught me is that you have to do it when its a few weeks or months old.

[@SilencespeaksmoreKelly]

The same way. Take your time and use a small area. At that age you can leave the halter on. Make sure there is no place that the Shetland can catch the halter on.

[@SilencespeaksmoreKelly]

As far as working with the foal with a halter & lead outside the stall this normally happens at 3 - 6 weeks. Then they are big enough to understand and the mare is comfortable with having the foal endure some hardship as they learn to lead. Remember babies are the foundation of your ranch. The better start your babies have the better foundation is set for their later training. Weeks can be saved when they are 1 - 3 years old and move to lounging, ground work, & saddle training.

[@artmaniaclondon1722]

[@MoeJae86]

Very good insight and directly to the point. Thanks for Sharing!

[@SilencespeaksmoreKelly]

In your comment you don't say how much time or how often you spend with him or the size of the area you have to work in. My recommendation is to take a 3' cotton rope (no snap) and start to rub him down with it - like a brush. Rub it all over him - face, head, body. If you can get a halter on him again and if he is in a VERY safe place where a halter won't get snagged - leave the halter on him. Please give us more information so that we can answer better to your situation. Thank You kindly!

[@kayBTR]

Do you think the mother being so anxious and whinnying increased the foals fear?

[@ahmadpariyani4670]

Good job

[@auroraholguin8742]

what do you do if it is a boy.🐴🐴🐴🐴🐴

[@SilencespeaksmoreKelly]

Yes it does - that is natural. This is a learning process. Once the mare figures out that nothing will happen to the foal and settles down, the foal settles down as well. Even if the mare was quiet the foal would still be afraid of the close contact and being held. This is why it is so important to work with them everyday and get them comfortable with being handled. A foal is one of the only animals to be born with a mature brain. During the first week it is a blank slate to be written on. It is our responsibility to spend that first week building trust and confidence with the foal. This assures that the foal will have a much better life working with people.

[@lizgawin899]

I like reading horse books and watching horse videos and this is a great video on how to help a foal get used to a halter. one of the book series I read is about thoroughbreds and a trainer was mentioned that didn't really seem to know what he was doing. in one book a colt named Star came in and he was the in the typical colt-to-stallion stage, but this trainer was rough on him. the trainers cure for aggression was to isolate the horse and make them totally dependent on humans for company, feed and water BUT Star was orphaned and being alone was a big fear for him and only made it worse. Personally I'd have called the jockey club because if Star had been isolated and a thunderstorm came up and you can never tell where the lightning may strike. I've heard of building being burnt down due to lightning strikes and horse feed and beeding is flammable and if the stables where Star was being kept did happen to catch fire they may not have been able to get him out due to him being in the back of the barn. is there any truth to my fear about this or was it just paranoia?

[@SilencespeaksmoreKelly]

The theory behind him being isolated is correct in some circumstances. In Star's case being orphaned comes into play. In his case I would have put him with an older very friendly gelding. One that would come to you and loves being around people. This would help Star become more people orientated. As far as lightning - Yes barns do burn and the biggest fear for any stable owner is fire. A sad fact is that more horses burn from being turned loose and running back into a burning barn. Care must be taken to get the horses away and contained. Remember It is very rare for a barn to be hit by lightening. There are so many acts of god that can happen to a barn. Besides lightning, high winds, tornadoes, so many things. As barn owners we do all we can to keep our horses safe.

[@lizgawin899]

SilenceSpeaksMore I certainly know about high winds and tornadoes, my uncle has two horses and his half stable had to be rebuilt, and light poles that had been snapped in half had to be replaced, which was why I wondered about Stars' wellbeing, the trainer would never have followed your suggestion, he would have just kept using breaking methods that were clearly not working and turned poor Star outlaw. if you're interested in the book I've mentioned it's titled 'Thoroughbred Wonders legacy Star in danger.

Thank you kindly. It is so important to start our young horses off properly with respect and patience. It is nice to see that our videos are so well received and shared. We see so many "cowboys" here that insist on "telling" their horses what to do and demand obedience from horses that have lost the life in their eyes. Keep your horse's eyes alive and their brain looking forward to the next new thing to learn. You will have a true partner for life!!

[@lalina1304]

Its like the mother trusts you, but not really. This is cool, I don't see abuse here, the mother was free to attack if she felt the foal was stressed.

How is this abuse? He put a freaking halter on the thing.... abuse does not look like this. Horse ppl are the craziest ppl I know and yes I am a rider but I don't berate ppl on something so small. This is not abuse, it ain't ur animal so you all that are screaming abuse you need to do your research on actual abuse. All I see is he's desensitizing that foal early... it's his foal!!!! Try watching the old cowboys take hammers and metal pipes to horses heads, legs and body... I've seen it and that is actual abuse, not what I saw him doing at all. He's right the older they get the bigger fits they can pitch. I like your method, you do you sir. 🤗🤗

Geez , I wait til they are 1 month old. My mares are broke horses that trust me. I fool with them until they stand there and let me put the halter on and take it off.

I have halter broke them where I don’t even have a pen, takes time but again , the mares are my friend and I feed them grain every day and brush them. Some take longer than others.

[@SusanStoneSalas]

Where I worked we didn't like to cause any stress for mother from the time of birth for her and her foal at any age, because some mothers will reject their foals. We began halter training at about a four months old, very slowly no rush. Some mothers are more protective, so with them I would spend more time reassuring them, I always worked alone and never tied up the mares.
