Is this normal? Woody was always reen renound for jumping to where the grass seems greener but since she became pregnant she hasnt jumped out once. Nico is now 3 months old and she is an excellent mother. They are stabled at night and out during the day and our other 3 horses do the reverse. Last night when we went to switch the horses over Nico was in the field on his own and Woody was on the yard squirting at my gelding who looked disgusted by her! Nico seemed settled enough on his own but has a little cut on his leg where I assume he tried to get to her. I opened the field gate and let him in and he went straight to mum for a drink!
Is it usual/normal for a mare to jump a 4 ft fence and leave her foal behind although she could still see him??
