Ok, this may be a dumb question, but does it matter if a horse is a stallion or a gelding when it comes to it's mane and tail growth? Reason I ask is because when I first got O So, his mane and tail were long, his tail rubbed the ground. I clipped about a inch off one time and it grew back fast. Then I got him gelded (sorry if that is the wrong term) and his tail now only goes to his fetlock (elbow?). He does rub it, so that could be causing the shortness, but he rubbed it as a stallion too and it seemed like it grew in length as it was getting thinner in fullness. Now it is then and short. As far as his mane, he did rub half of it out, but it just seems like it doesn't grow. His forelock seems like it never gets any longer.
So do their mane and tails grow better when they are stallions?
