around 1 -2 monthhs before you can put somthing over there head but if you want to break it in you will have to wait 3 years
There is no halter breaking on Howrse.com. This is not something that you do with your horses on the game.
Hi. I would suggest getting a halter on them starting from day one. I have raised a few colts now and they all benefit in the long run when I get halters on them as soon as possible. Just putting the halter on and off getting them used to it is enough.
Halter Breaking is when you teach a foal or unhandled horse to be led on the halter.
You do not do that with your fol on Howrse. But it is after a couple of weeks. 1 month
halter it at seven weeks, train about close to one years, mother should start to wean by herself
EDIT BY RUBYRACER: The answer for the Howrse Riding Test #9 is The First Month.At the age of two I believe.You should put a halter on a foal as soon as possible for short periods of time to get it used to it. Once it seems comfortable with the halter, you should begin leading it on a lead line next to the mother when you take them out to pasture or bring them inside. Just remember, foals are very impressionable, so be very careful not to scare them, and make sure it is a pleasant experience.
The day it's born. Seriously, halter breaking is a lot easier when your foal is already used to humans. As soon as it's born, rub it all over, touch it everywhere and talk to it. This will "imprint" the foal and make handling it much easier. Every day, go play with the foal, put the halter on and off, touch it all over, get it used to the lead rope, etc. Then just try light tugging on the halter, as soon as it moves even one step forwards, release the pressure to reward the foal. Then ask for 2 steps, 3, etc and soon you will have a nicely halter-broke filly or colt :)
A foal learns to stand only a few moments after they are born. They should start jumping around and getting playful only a few days after that.
The foal should start moving about the 4 or 5 month but it will be hard to see or feel at this time. At about 8 to 10 months you may see the foal move or kick the mare's side.
You can start handling your foal as soon as it is safely able to do so, usually within the first few days of birth. It is important to start handling the foal early to begin building trust and establishing boundaries. Gradually introduce handling activities to ensure the foal is comfortable with human interaction.
Only if she's been nursed by another foal who's been stealing milk from her. Otherwise, no, the mare should start the drying-up process after her foal is weaned or after she has weaned her foal by herself.
You can teach a foal how to lunge in its first year. This can be taught along with halter breaking, leading, bathing,clipping,loading.
