    I know very little about horses but I know this is natural behavior. The mares don’t know this horse or haven’t seen him for a while, they are their own herd and they have young. It’s natural for them to be nervous, curious, or even afraid until they figure out who he is and that he’s not there to hurt the young. I would expect the mares that are in heat might take more easily to him than the ones that are not in heat or with very new foals. In the wild the stallion protects them and keeps them all together. We humans tend to think we know better or that every sign of discomfort means abuse but we really know very little and our interference very often causes immense damage. I watched a video with a beautiful black stallion being taken to a mare to breed. Both were being held by ropes and were in a small corral. The mare clearly was not ready to be bred and tried to kick at the stallion. Had he been free to be himself, he would have moved away and spent some time wooing her but he was held in place by ropes so tightly he could not move his head out of the way. He was kicked square in the head and was dead before he hit the ground. Such a tragedy and loss of a beautiful animal just because humans thought they knew best. Just let them be horses.

    Adding any new horse to a herd is generally going to add a bit of uneasiness and confusion for a bit. Actually they accepted and calmed down around him far faster than usual of what I have seen in horse interactions, usually it takes several hours if not upwards of a day or two. Most of them definitely knew him even if they hadn't seen him in a bit and if anything they were playing hard to get to see if he still interested in them and was still a suitable stallion. Mares have sass and they will mess with each other and especially stallions around breeding season just because of hormones. There is a reason a lot of ranchers do like geldings over mares, they don't get temperamental like mares often do, doesn't mean they are better but it is a factor you have to consider in a working horse.

    I worked at a horse stable when i was 15, my dads friend owned the place and people would pay to keep their horses there. There was one stud, it was actually my moms horses son. He obviously couldnt ever go out with the herd of 65-70 horses. It was my responsibility to get him from his stall in the barn out to his paddock in the morning and bring him back in the afternoon. As i was the only male and stood 6'1" and weighed 200 lbs i could handle him when he jumped or reared and didnt want to cooperate. If the herd was close by in the pasture hed pick his head up, curl his upper lip sniffinging the pharamoans from a mare in heat. I knew then it was party time. Good chance he would try anything to get away from me and go find that mare. Even though he did pull me over a few times i never let him get away even when he dragged me through the mud and rain for a good 50 feet. I enjoyed the challenge of trying to "tame the beast". I really enjoyed that job working at the stable.

    Man y’all must really like the grey modifier!! Grey messes up the horse’s true color, but they do look super cool as they’re changing to grey from dark colors. I love black and crème genes and chrome too much and the grey just washes all that stuff out. But back to the subject at hand: it can get WILD when you’re running a stud out with mares and foals in the pasture for sure.

    So I have a couple of questions, not being familiar with horse breeding. Does your stallion have a favorite mare or two that he breeds with, or is it like his name...he just takes his pick of whichever mare he happens to take a shine to? And I am guessing the mares who have already had foals are not in the running for him to breed with, right? I have seen some videos where they will put the mare in a chute or some sort and have them do the deed there. Is it much more dangerous, having them free like your herd is, to have him breed the mares? And how soon will you know that the mares are pregnant with his foals?

  • @tuckerbrownrab

    @tuckerbrownrab

    2 ай бұрын

    The most fertile time for them is right after they have a baby. The mare will determine when the dead is done, so it depends on their reproductive cycle. The stud will breed all of them over a few months. It can be dangerous, you just have to be smart about how you handle them.

    That is a wonderful display of horse psychology and behavior. Great job and ignore those people that say the mares were doing just fine before the stud came. They get to learn a natural order and it's beautiful to see how they interact and I love how the stallion takes charge and it's a great example of leadership and I think some people get offended by that because they might not want that implemented in their own life even though they need it. That's my personal opinion on some of the comments.

    ​@tuckerbrownrab and it's also the worst time to breed. A good breeder would give their mares at least a year between breeding foals, so they can have a rest between. They don't get that in the wild, so all mares are breeding a foal EVERY single year from around 2 to 22 sometimes older. And look at them when this happens. They become very poor physically, and often they will lose a foal due to malnutrition, from the mares diet. Not only that, but the foals themselves don't ever mature properly. They are smaller than normal and don't seem to grow very big. As a human, it's our responsibility to take these things into consideration, especially if we are going to make money from the youngstock.

Just because we do it different doesn’t make us a bad breeder.

    Horses have a very interesting gestation period that can last for over a year. It’s a very very common practice for this to happen. One of their most fertile moments is actually called the “foal heat” right when their baby is born. So it’s a great time to have them together according to their normal reproductive cycle.
