My three year old mare today started Rearing at feed time she’s done it before when turning out? How would you handle this?

Was she loose or were you leading her when she reared?

In the Field it’s always loose and to get other horses away from me and she was tied today when she was rearing in hand she is amazing and even when been lightly backed no rearing so I don’t want to make it a thing I just ignored her but I don’t want to let her get away with it thankyou for taking the time to reply

When she's loose in the field, keep yourself safe and only approach her when she's got her hooves firmly on the floor.
RE feed time, would it be possible to change things around? So instead of her waiting for her feed and getting impatient, you have the feed ready in her stable and then lead her in and leave her to eat?

Yes I normally do have it ready For her I just wanted to check I was not letting her get away with bad behaviour this is her only flaw really the rearing in the field is just because of other horses coming near hopefully she will grow out of it

Too little time, too much to read.
If she is being lively like this make sure you wear you hat when leading her and turning her out
