RE: [RC] mares and Geldings pastured - Ridecamp Guest

Please Reply to: sue sue_jamaica@xxxxxxxxx or ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
==========================================

Where I board the mares and geldings are seperate, the last stable I was at 
they were not. Infact they got along just fine. I is my understanding that if a 
young stallion is gelded eairly in life, the desire to have sex is deminished 
greatly-as opposed to haveing them gelded at say, 4 or 5 when their hormones 
have been "established". Another place that I boarded at, they were all 
mixed-plus the owner was able to keep an older mare-who still came into heat, 
with a stallion in the same pasture. He respected her and never tried anything. 
However he WOULD talk  with other mares across the fence!
