Hi
Please could you advise on how to react to my foals behaviour... We have only had him 7 days and already he allows me to pick up all four feet and pick them out..he has been pretty much unhandled until now... he is 6 months old by the way.. however, when i am brushing his legs he kicks out with his leg at the brush, today he even knocked the brush out of my hand sending it across the yard! I know its only natural to want him to do this.. as this is how he'd rid himself of a predator in the wild, but i dont know how to react... do i just ignore and carry on?.. shout? slap him on the bum?...
Thanks in advance.
