For any horse, it should be familiarized with the halter as soon as possible. Use a soft breakaway at first, and then you could move on to whatever halter you normally use. Just have it get used to the idea of something on its face - Don't force it.

Is a old leather halter safe for horses in field?

A leather halter is much safer to use in the field as it is much easier to break if your horse gets its halter caught on something.You wouldn't want him or her to get caught then panic and have a nasty accident! You can buy field 'safe' halters that have velcro or rubber instead of metal these are desined to snap should your horse get stuck on something.The fact the halter is old doesn't matter just use a newer or nylon one for leading your horse in' your horse doesn't care about appearence.

Are young horses more wild than older horses?

Younger horses are of course more wild, when they are first born. For the first couple of months, (before you can begin training them) They are considered domesticated and wild. I know that may seem confusing, but until you train a horse, it is considered wild. Now, you may have an old, not trained horse, just because it is old, doesn't mean it is not wild. It is wild unless you have trained it!

What will horses be able to do at 6 months?

At the age of six months, foals should probably be weaned or nearly weaned. You also can easily start the process of halter-breaking them at this age, and make sure that they are fully halter-broken by the age of one year. Six months is still a baby, so you can't do much. This is still far too young to ride, so you'll just have to settle for halter work and bonding with them until they're a little over two years old. You can start training them for simple things, possibly behaviors or just how to act around humans and other horses.
