Horses will groom each other if they get along. This action looks alot like nibbling, but they don't do it to be mean. However, a horse who goes to nibble at the behind of another passing horse probably does not get along with that horse too well.

horses nibble each other as a form of bonding it is called grooming.if they have there ears back whilst doing it then they may be being aggressive but if they are just standing in the field biting each others shoulders or manes then this is grooming and yes it does mean they get on. It's just like when people need their back scratched or massaged.
