    Out of all the horses I have ever trained, I have never known a black stallion to be more temperamental than a bay stallion... I have actually never seen color to effect temperament. Just throwing that out there...

    Color doesn't affect it. They just want to sound smart.

    “This stallion is standing absolutely perfectly” I don’t know if he’s champing incessantly at the bit, (in which case he may not be entirely comfortable with that particular bit) or if he’s just being encouraged to chew and mouth by having the end of the reins/lead rope flipped at his lips constantly, but either way, he’s not standing perfectly. Stallions are generally much more mouthy than geldings (ours even has his own specific rope chew toys, like a dog lol). But because of this naturally instinctive behaviour, they are much more susceptible to picking up minor negative habits (as displayed with this horse) through insufficient handling. I don’t at all mean “bad” handling, not by any stretch. He is obviously a perfectly civil animal. However, it is basic etiquette to teach any horse to be able to stand quietly, regardless of it’s hormones or chromosomes, which this horse seems to be struggling to do by the looks of this clip. Edit: temperament of horse has absolutely NOTHING to do with colour; proper archaic superstition right there 😂

    He is standing very well, not leaning forward, pawing stepping forwards or shuffling. Horses can have oral fixations, especially if they’re teething and some horses have been known to chew ropes to help comfort themselves with pain

    My stallion behaves like a gelding, he literally has no stallion manners. Surely he whinnies something after other horses sometimes or gets a pretty neck when he sees a mare he likes but nothing more. People should stop picturing stallions as hormonal monsters. If you don't train them properly, of course they can be difficult and not every horse should be a stallion, if you look at the character. While my fjord is so calm and sweet he can be lead and ridden by children I know another Andalusian stallion who knows he is a man and behaves like that. The key in handling stallions isn't to control them. It's treating them like all the other horses. Be relaxed, not tense, and be sure of what you want. They aren't monsters, sometimes the hormones just kick in.

    The stallion at my work that I handle and ride always plays with my jacket when i'm wearing one, but does occasionally grab skin and it's exactly what she says. We he knew he got skin he ran into the corner of his stable.
