When you fly spray your horse do they jump around and hate to be sprayed?

Yup mine did... He was scared of the spray ... it was a pain in the butt so he sufferd with flys on him ... LOL i no that isnt the way to do it but i wasnt about to wrisk a dead horse for some flyspry........ Or i would put it on a cloths n spread it around .... also just kinda spray it randomly so he'd get use to the sound... oh and i would also put it on a cloth and wipe it on him and well i was doing that i would spray teh spary on him and he woudnt seem to know the difference

Depends on each horse...

Poco(15 y/o)- stands perfectly

BG(11 y/o)- stands pefectly

Star(6 y/o)- stands perfectly

Lizzy(4 y/o)- will circle a little, but generally stands okay

Mocha(4 y/o)- will stand still, then other times will circle or back up a little

Leggy(4 y/o)- stands for the front half, as soon as it touches her back, hind legs, etc. she tucks her butt in and will circle---we just bought her at the end of winter, I don't know if she's ever been fly psray prior to us doing it

Sheba(3 y/o)- stands perfectly

Blue(3 y/o)- stands perfectly

Deville(2 y/o)- will stand still, but will also try to circle every once in a while

Foals- ranging from 2-4 months old. They all stand pretty darn well. Will still take a step foward every so often, but will stand nicely


So I guess I've got a pretty good herd for fly spraying- nobody really gives me any trouble. If anything the worst thye do is try to walk forward, step back, or a circle a little and then stop and stand. So that's pretty good.
