Ok as we all should know I just purchased a bay pinto weanling colt and that this is my first weanling I've ever had. He (no name as of yet) is very shy around people but settles right down when you start to pet him. Loves people as soon as he sees you won't eat him lol - yeah us evil baby horsie eaters lol.
Well he has been handled a total of 3 times by humans his whole life yet is such a people perosn once you pet him. . .and within 2 hours he's nickering at me when he sees me. So below is what I need to know. . .
1- He hasn't had his feet messed with so what do I do to teach him to have his feet messed with?
2- He (as far as I know) hasn't been tied yet but what do I need to do for this?
3- Anything to help him be less shy around others?
4- He's just been clipped so will he need a winter blanket? If so. . .what kind?
Any helpful tips will be greatly appreciated! I look forward to showing this boy in halter classes! He certainly will catch the judges eye out ther with the big guys (reg. sized horses lol)! Wish me luck this February through November!
