All of mine stay out 24/7 unless I am going somewhere with them. If I am leaving in the wee hours I sometimes stall them the night before. At a show or camping ect. I stall them. My horses do not crowd me, I have taught them to stay out of MY SPACE.... And they cannot be a bully about food.

Maye

Ride the Glide....Got Gait....I do.....

hahahaha I wish I cold do that. My lead horse always scares the other ponies away when he's done his food, so he can get more. I don't allow it though.

Okay, first of all does anyone here keep their horses in a pasture at all times? If so, do your horses try to kill you when you bring up feed!!!?? I was feeding our horses yesterday, and they come right up to you and it's like they corner you and won't let you out!!!!

I bring a distraction bucket along so I can give them a bit of feed to distract them so I can at least get up to their shed. Just thought I might share that with you.

The mare I lease and her pasture-mates are always out, unless sick.

I do sometimes have a problem with the others following me around if I've brought a bucket of treats to lure my mare in, but nothing too serious. They're just curious. If they get too close I shoo them off.

Mine stay out all the time, except I bring them in everyday to eat and be ridden.

Yea, we don't do that. But, usually they'll let you come up, it's just that they're right on your tail, and sometimes they get a little jumpy, and I don't really wanna get a kick to me.

 

[Quinn4321]

Haha getting kicked isn't fun. At all. Lol. Be careful! We have one pushy mare, and I find carrying a crop can help. If they get too in your face a little tap with it might remind them to back off.

How awful.

I just heard about this on the TV. The poor mare with the foal who might not make it is in her twenties, and very frail... I wish I could take them all home with me.

Aw

Hmm... Mine must be a hybrid between equus spazus and equus non stoppus.
