Other than that, I'll take your advice and try a little harder. One more question. What is the best calming supplement that allows you to be able to ride a calm horse that can be uses for shows?
Music provides excellent confort and distraction, and your horse may like it too! Emmy likes Colbie Caillat xD

Ugh, decisions...
Well, my mom and I bought a dead-broke stallion last summer. He's cryptorchid, but he was amazingly docile for a stallion. We took him home and put him in the pasture with our mares and gelding. At first, everything went wonderfully. He was a great riding horses, and he didn't really bother the horses.
But now, he's been fighting with our gelding and running him from the herd, and he's really stubborn whenever we go to take him out of the pasture. My mom and I went to lunge him, and he got angry! He reared and challenged us whenever we tried to lunge him. So, after that was unsuccessful, we put him back in the pasture. He's being really mean to our gelding, and occasionally to us. My mom and dad are contemplating selling him, since he's barely rideable, with his attitude. The other option is to geld him, but that could cost up to 1,300 dollars since he's cryptorchid. What should we do? :C

The first mistake I read in there was that you put him back in the pasture. Honestly, he won. That's exactly how he sees it, too. He challenged you, and you backed down. You guys have to be firm with him; you can't back down when he challenges you. It's the natural order of things. If he's mean to your gelding, that's because he is the lead stallion, and that gelding is trying to take his mares. If it gets too obnoxiously horrible, you guys could separate them, or geld him. That would probly be your best options?

We put him back in the pasture because he started getting violent, and my mom has a really bad back. I didn't want her to get hurt, so we put him in the pasture.
And we can't separate him, we've tried it before. He either jumps the fence or tears it down. And my family barely has money to geld him, due to him being cryptorchid.

Well, if you don't geld him, you would have to sell him, wouldn't you? If you kept him, in the long run, gelding him could be cheaper. If he continues how he is now, he could cause lots of damage to the area (the fence, his stall, etc) or other horses, or you or your mom. So it could be cheaper, maybe? Just curious, why did you buy him?

Before we bought him, we drove down to where he was to check him out. He was a very docile and sweet stallion, and very easy to ride. We got him for very cheap, too. Only 300 dollars. My mom is thinking of selling him, because gelding him could cost from 300 dollars to 1,000 dollars, due to him being cryptorchid. If you don't know what that is, then
here~We don't have much money, so my mom is leaning towards just selling him.

Ohh, I see. Well, thats' too bad he's not going so well. I knew what that was, just by a different name, so thanks for the link. I have no idea what you should do. I have no experience with stallions or selling or buying horses, so good luck, whatever you decide to do. I hope it goes ok.
