Crib biting - when a horse bites any part of their stable or a fence etc

wind sucking - a bit like crib biting but they arch their neck and gulp in air

Weaving - when they move side to side in the stable doorway, also weaving their neck

box walking - walking around and around their stable

door kicking - kicking the stable door

nipping people

kicking

When do horses eat?

A horses feeding habits can be affected by the amount of food in front of it, but they generally are 'slow feeders'. Horses like to graze for up to 16 hours a day on forage based food, such as grass, hay or similar. However in captivity their feeding habits are typically altered due to human intervention. In stable or domestic situations most horses are feed two to four times a day with hay and/or grain/pelleted feed products. When fed like this horses will typically eat their food as fast as possible, which can lead to many health and behavioural problems.


What are the best horse riding camps for kids?

I believe that the best horseback riding camps are those that are at stables that are in use all year round with horses that have had lessons on them and trainers and instructors that know the horse they are working with, stear clear of camps that lease their horses for the summer the horses come from barns that in my experience don't take very good care of the horses and many of the horses have bad habits. Look for camps that are primarily horseback riding. Circle square camp is a very good place look it up on the Internet!
