Is Chico Okay?

Postby Selene Moon » Wed Nov 28, 2012 7:28 am

We have two horses (used to have three, but one died): Sunback, a bay mustang (Not the brown kind, the yellowish kind) , and CHico, a black shire.

CHico and Sunback were in the paddock. I was sitting on the porch, just chillin. Then Suddenly I heard Sunback yell. I ran to it and saw Chico ATTACKING my Sunback! It took more than reins and whip to pull CHico away. When we did, we locked him in his stall and recovered Sunback. Sunback had bruises on his legs, flank, sides, and a horseshoe mark around his eye. We have no idea what has gotten into Chico. He was usually nice to him. I went to clean Chicos stall later, and he went on a temper tantrum and tipped his food and water over.

We had Chico and Sunback since they were colts. Any of you guys know why Chico acted so weird?

How old are they both? Are they geldings or stallions?

If they are mares nearby, or scent of mares, i.e maybe your neighbors have mares around or maybe you have mares yourself, they may have gotten competitive.
