The horse kicks, stay away?
This answer is a good one, but you really need to pay attention to the different colors of ribbons. All the of the different colored ribbons mean a different thing. I have seen people use a red ribbon for a horse that is pregnant. So ask someone at the stable or where ever your go.
it means that they are a stallion
It means that you shouldn't let your horse get to close to that horses behind because that horse will kick.
For Howrse: The horse might kick.It means that the horse is a kicker.The red ribbon means that the horse has been known to kick and you should stay well away.it means taht the horse is likely to kick out if you get too close to it.
You are unable to plait your horse's tail or put a ribbon in, sadly.
A red ribbon on a horses tail means that horse is a kicker. ^Used in horse shows. Just as above answer says, it is a warning so in a open flat class you do not ride too close to the other horse.
This means that the horse is a stallion. Stay away, especially if you have a mare that is in heat. ~Deb~
That the horse is a girl and it is in the show as the star.
When trail riding or showing a red ribbon means the horse kicks so stay back. I suppose a yellow ribbon might mean the same.
stay away from its rear end- it'll kick. ;)
If the red ribbon is in the horses tail it means the the horse kicks out. It's a warning sign saying "Stay far away so you don't get kicked." Usually you'll see this when the horse is in a class with many other horses in the ring at one time.
Walking horses wear tail braces in the show ring to accentuate their high-stepping gait known as the "Big Lick." The tail brace holds the horse's tail in an unnatural position to enhance the appearance of exaggerated movement, which is desired in the show ring. However, the use of tail braces has sparked controversy and criticism due to concerns about animal welfare and discomfort for the horses.
You cannot grow a horses tail, no way magically, unless you are insane and you are addicted to surgery to get a horses tail. that's all i know. Buy a foal or a colt. Let him grow. Its tail will grow with him.
