So you believe this is a normal wild horse area? You believe
you can just mozy on in and join a herd? No This valley
is Enchanted with beautiful wild horses. Not Necessarily
Unicorns or Pegasi but ordinarily looking horses with
a single power that has change the world forever. That Will
Change your life Forever.

A band, or herd of horses consists of a single stallion and a few
mares and foals. Once a filly or colt becomes two years old,
they are kicked out of their herd to prevent inbreeding
though sometimes fillies are allowed to stay longer.
Lead mares are not the stallion's favorite and are not chosen by
the stallion. The lead mare is the most dominant mare, usually
the oldest though younger mares can fight the lead mare for
the position. Lead mares can push other mares and foals around
they get to drink first from water holes, lead the herd to new places
and even kick out mares that they do not like. They are above the
lead stallion in dominance, they lead the herd while the stallion
protects, covers and adds more mares into the band.
Stallions mate with all or most mares in his herd once they come
into heat, and the mare will give birth in 11 months to a single
foal and even twins, though twins are extremely rare and will die
if born in the wild as they need human help to survive, there is
also a chance of the mare dying if twins are born.

Horses are flight animals, stallions only fight if their herd is being
threatened by another stallion. If there were a fire or wranglers
and a horse was captured, another horse wouldn't go to the wrangler
and fight them as they would be too scared to and would only be
thinking about escaping though they will fight if their foal is
threatened. Mares may even go into heat one week after their foals are born
and are usually in heat during in Spring and Summer, sometimes
Autumn and never winter.

A Bachelor is a stallion who does not have a herd and will often
try to court and snake lone mares or mares from another herd.
Stallions don't often start herds until they are at least 5, when
they are strong enough to keep a few mares and will stay with
other bachelors until they gain a mare.

Snaking is when a stallion lowers his head, pins his ears and runs
behind the mares, sometimes nipping but is mostly just running
close to them. This causes mares, foals, and sometimes even younger
stallions to move in a certain direction and is used to bring a herd to another
place or to steal mares from a herd. Mares always to go where the
stallions want them to go and will hardly fight back, but when they do
there is not much they can do since stallions are stronger and can usually
get them to go to a certain area quickly and easily. This is used when
moving their herd or bring a mare to the herd. Snaking is very normal
and mares do not hate stallions for doing it. Herds may consist from 1-6
mares but it is possible to have larger herds.Larger herds can consist up to 20
or 30 mares.Lone horses cannot survive in the winter and must be with
others, either in a herd or in a band of bachelor stallions or they will surely die.

A mare has 4 stages of heat
0- Not interested in a stallion at all
1-Still not interested in a stallion
2-Slightly interested but will still fight
3-Interested but will fight if the stallion tries to hard
4-Will accept any stallion and won't fight at all, even if she does not know him

Though it is not common, a stallion will sometimes kill a foal if it is not their's
or if they sense that there is something wrong with it. They do this to make sure
only their bloodlines will spread and if the foal has a disability then it will keep
the herd from moving slower than it should.Mares will rarely nurse a foal that is not
their's, there are few that may take in a foal, but most usually just ignore the
foal, even if it it's dam is dead and It is not weaned.

Older mares that can no longer produce foal's will sometimes try to steal foals
from other mares. If this happens, a stallion can't and will not do anything
about it. The mother can try to take her foal back, but if she fails the foal will
die.
