Mare kicking bars.

farmchickisr · 10-23-2009, 01:01 PM

One of the mares likes to kick at the gelding next to her through the bars seperating them. Any tricks to make her stop? Changing stalls isn't an option.

Board over the bars?

You could always spay her... or the horsie equivalent of spaying.

what are kicking chains???!? never heard of them. a board won't work, she's already bent and broken the metal bars, so what is wood for her karate kicks?!?

Can also make kicking "chains" out of hammer handles, with hole drilled in them attached to leather dog collar above hock. Works wonders.
