I wake up this morning to find that my stallion "Spot" has somehow gotten out of his pasture and in with the rest of the herd. 7 females, 2 of which are his yearling daughters and another is just 2 years old. I saw him breed one of my girls but she is an older female that, I think, cannot conceive as she was with a stallion a few years ago, for quite a while and no babies. So I run out to the pasture grab Spot and put him in my front yard until I can figure out how he got out. Front yard has horse fence tacked up against wooden rail fencing so hopefully he is staying put.
I go out about an hour later to find his forelock is cut off to above his eyes. My 50 year old brother who lives with me says he did it... because Spot had a long (beautiful) forelock and he thought Spot couldn't see properly! My brother says I am cruel to leave his forelock long. I can't believe he did that.
I know it's funny and nothing truly harmful but it makes feel so frustrated and angry. Spot looks ridiculous, lol. Well just venting. Thanks for listening.
