[RC] Stallion Question - katswig@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Jess Spoone-Raines said:


I've noticed a lot of people refer to keeping their
stallions by themselves and I'm just curious why they do.
Mine is 3 now and has been in with everybody else
since I got him. The herd consists of 2 mares, him
and 4 geldings. He's not at all agressive with the
horses or people and seems super happy to be in there.
I guess I'm just wondering if I just got real lucky
with his temperment.


Most people keep their stallions by themselves (or in with geldings)
because they don't want new foals every year.

Next year your herd is going to consist of him, 4 geldings, 2 mares, and 2
foals...unless of course either your stallion and/or your two mares are
infertile.

Only people who want their mares bred, keep stallions this way.
