You should start working with him on simple things like lunging (Only at a walk. Have him go in small circles around you. If he starts to act up, quickly correct him.) when he turns two or even younger. (Obviously not to young. 1-2 years old is usually when I start teaching my foals how to lunge.) Then, as he gets better, (don't expect results right away) find a light saddle (about 50 punds or so) and put it on him. Continue lunging him while he's wearing the saddle. After this, find a bit that fits him and an older headstall. (because it's obviously going to take some wear-and-tear.) DO NOT attatch the reins yet! As a vet, I cannot tell you how many calls a year I get to come check there ''lame'' horse because somone was careless and left the reins on. A young horse will have his days where he feel's frisky and silly, so he rears up and get's his hoof caught in the reins. It can turn bad-fast. Continue lunging him with the saddle and bit on for a while until he is calm and doesn't mind the stirrups flapping at his sides or the taste of metel. Then slowly move him into a gentle trot with all of his tack on. (except for the reins! =]) Now you're ready to start putting weight in the stirrups. Have a friend who has experience with horses hold him while you put your foot in the stirrup and put a little weight in it. Hop a little bit like you're getting ready to mount. Maybe even stand in the stirrup. BUT ALWAYS BE PREPARED TO JUMP OFF! When he's O.K. with one side, move to he other side. By age 3, you should be able to start sitting on him. Have your experienced horse buddy hold him while you mount onto him. (Yes, now you can have the reins on.) Get on him from the left side, sit on him for 5 seconds, (start counting after your butt hits the seat.) IF HE STARTS DANCING AND PRANCING, JUMP OFF IMMEDIATLY! We don't want you or your buddy to get hurt. Gradually go from 5 seconds to 10, 10 to 15, 15 to 20, etc., until your can sit on him for a good 4-5 minutes without him freaking out. After you have managed sitting on him, have your horsey buddy walk you and him around the arena. As he gets better at this, start walking him around on your own, gradually moving into a trot when YOU think he's ready. I hope this helped. (Bet you thought this answer was never going to end. Ha ha!)
It's just like breaking a horse. You break a horse, not break it in. This is it's first training when it first learns to be handled or ridden. Usually you should start out slow, at about the age of 3, which is when their knees are fully developed. You start out just by leading them, then fitting them with a bridle and saddle. You can put a little weight on it's back to see how it reacts. Eventually, you start riding it and then training it. Unless you have broken many horses/ponies before, it's best to find a trainer that will break the horse for you.
The answer to this question will depend on exactly how you meant it. If you meant which breed of horse rarely stays black as they age? then many breeds could fit that description, such as the Lipizzaner, they start out bay or black and turn grey as they age, but a few will remain dark. If you meant it as in, which breed of horse will stay black? Then there are several breeds as well, such as the Friesian.
After a foal is born, the amniotic sack should break if it hasn't already. The foal should begin breathing on its own and begin to try to rise. The cord will break on its own or when the mare rises. All this usually happens in the first few minutes after birth.
when your horse is ready, if the horse is green broke at 4, then give them a year, and you should never start backing a horse (training to saddle) before the age of 3 b/c they haven't developed enough
yo can ride them right away You cannot ride the right away! That could permantely injure the horse! They have to be a least 2 or 3 years. It all depends on the horse, the breed, it's strength, and other factors. And even then, you can't throw a saddle on it, and hop on. It takes time!

You can start handling a horse when there born. But you can only start riding at 2 YO. If you start at 1 the horses joints won't be very good.
a start is when the horses break from the gate. when the bell rings and the doors open and they "start" running...that is called a start.
halter it at seven weeks, train about close to one years, mother should start to wean by herself

as soon as your horse's feet start to grow longer than they should you should schedule an appointment with the farrier or ask another horse expert for advice.
You break a horse in at about 3 or 4. Quick maturing horses, such as thoughbreds, are brocken in at 1 year old.
Start by contacting the horse board in your country. Google it & you should be able to find a phone number to contact.
Race horses start at about two although this is bad for them. If you are looking to start a horse you should wait until they are about 4 to start riding them. If the start too early it can cause problems later in their life
no you shouldn't if you are the one who broke it in you should stick with it and form a bond between you and the horse where it forms trust in you to start riding it more regualy .
The opinions on this subject vary greatly... Some people break yearlings, others wait until the horses are 4+ It's generally accepted that the horse should be a minimum of 2.5 years old and have the proper muscling to carry a rider. If the horse is backed at 2.5 years old, it's best to just walk around the ring to teach them basic commands. At around 3-3.5 years old you can begin trotting and cantering, and start some very light jumping work at 4. No heavy work should be done until the horse is 5.
