On Saturday I moved one of my horses to a new yard just down the road as my other mare had become too attached to her. She has the same routine at the new yard and company of 3 other horses but she is very unsettled and just not herself, i know it sounds stupid but she seems sad.

I know it has not been long and it takes time to settle but does anyone have any tips that have worked to help your horses settle? I have moved her before and she has never been unsettled but she has always moved with another friend. I feel awful that she is having a tough time but it is for the best in the long run.
 
Its early days, its all new to her.. she probably is thinking where on earth am I. Give her a few weeks, keep her in a routine and keep her brain busy. Can you do some groundwork (or ride if you can)
