Hi Everyone
I am trying to get the rescues settled in among the others. The older Mare ( she is not his mother ) is already in with them, and things are fine. Now for the 4 month old, for the most part in a 1/2 hour time things are fine, But my 2 mares get funky with him and it ends up, him running and them right on his but he even has kick at him & they still run after him, his ears are pined and looks scared to death. Early today my one mare backed up to him, stright at his but ( he was just eating grass and had no clue ) and If I had not yelled at her she would have kicked him, My to mares are in the stalls for 4 hours moring and 4 hours in the evening because they are to fat ( both are 3 years old ), so that is his only free time in the field, Is there a way to have him join safely? Other wise he is stalled next to the common area in the barn were every one can look smell & touch, but cant hert him. I am going to make him a small area beside ther field but one day want them all together. As for the mare that came with him & my other pony, they dont pay him no mind & the mares to not act up on them eather... Any ideas that may have worked for you would be great.
Have a good one
