Lol - Love the killer eyes in the last pic!

And yes, he is, but he uses the "belt it off the wall till tis dead" method instead :rolleyes::D
 
Generally my lad is the opposite, he has a hex. ball and gently moves it from one hole side to the other, there fore doesn't have to expend too much energy! That said if he is in a grump he'll kick it all around his huge stable.

FDC
 
I've never known another horse go after a nutball like Morris. What worries me is that he really stomps on it and will hurt himself one day. He thinks he's 18hh but he's actually 39 inches!
 
yup my sec A is the same will stomp & throw it about in a bit to break it open to get the food out quicker (despite wasting twice as much energy on killing it)
he now has a space hopper in his stable instead so that WHEN he flings it out the stable any poor passing innocent gets hit by something less painful!
 
Mine likes to kill hers yes. She has a likkit one so it is nice and round and perfect for hoofing round the stable like a football!

Obviously kicking it around like that means that all the food gets lost in her bed but she seems to enjoy herself regardless!
 
One of my others used to kick the hell out of his ball but eventually he sussed that he gets more by doing it gently.

One of my girls has got it down to a T, she lines it up perfectly and then holds her teeth onto it to steady it then wiggles her top lip and the nuts fall out into little piles - Clever girl!

Now that is impressive! She should apply for MENSA :D
 
I drove him insane last night! I put some nuts in and then filled it with chaff so they didn't fall out easily but he could still hear them in there. He got so mad he went down on his knees but I didn't have the camera with me!
 
Stiggy is the same....perhaps its something to do with "small pony BIG personality"!!!
Stiggy has kicked his clean out the field before now. I am amazed neither he or the ball ever suffer any damage!
