My 5yr old always kicks back when feeding(only bucket feeds though not haylage) he has done this from being a foal i just think it the way he is and i know never to go in stable while he is eating or he will knocked off my feet. Dont know why he started doing it and no idea how to stop it.He also does it sometimes when just stood there

My yearling is EXACTLY the same.. god help me if i go in the stable with him when hes eating a hard feed. He's always done it too, right from being 4 and a half months old. But i think it comes from his mum battering him as a proper baby for stealing her feed! its become a bit of a built in quirk. Hes fine when out of the stable, just not in it :P

Mine does it outside as well and his mum died when he was 3 weeks old so it cant be down to her.As his name suggests i think he is just a loon
