Willow💓's Ryan!
I did this and I can walk into the pasture with a full bale of hay, separate it into 4 piles, and none of the two horses or donkey are allowed to be within 10 feet unless i tell them its ok. Once i give the ok, they can come eat, but i can go back to any pile and reclaim it or all of them. Im 67, and its been a great safety tool. I also have specific spots where they are allowed to eat, and i guard the donkeys food, cuz they will eat it if I dont. I use hand gestures to tell them to go to their boxes.
I don't allow mine to crowd me I use the stick string I have twenty horses that I feed in a circle .They are not allowed to touch the hay until I'm done putting the hay out and I give them permission to and they are not allowed to push another out of their pile either. They eat their pile and then walk away. It took about a week or so to get to that way. Some were very food aggressive some not so
It's very important to keep all of us safe.
Great video sir I love how you work and the knowledge that you have!
I’m so in love with the black horse he’s huge and magnificent
Freesian
@@polskigirl8547 Maybe a cross between a shire (tallness and the white parts) and a Fresian.
Willow....OH sh*t there is that stick🤣🤣🤣
I'm fostering an abuse case QH mare and she also had this tendency. What I did was carry a lunge whip with me to discourage that. Problem was she had gotten so used to having her own way or people just throwing the food and running out she thought I was just another person she could buffalo. She suddenly found herself up against someone who insisted on manners and she didn't like it. She'd press into the whip and bend it. I flipped it around and shoved it hard into her brisket. Her reaction was to spin around and start kicking at me which got her butt stung one time. She'd turn around and glare believing I'd do such a thing. I never yelled or screamed at her and never used the whip more than once. When she fanced me I praised her, put the whip in the vertical and stepped away from her trough allowing her to feed. I had to keep the lunge whip with me for several months as a reminder that if she tried to bully me or turn to kick me I'd use it. Now I don't have to use it at all. She's very calm at feed time and will wait till I serve and step back with an " Ok. Tuck in. "
Thank You. Appreciate you sharing with us. 😮
I don’t actually have horses, but I have goats and sheep, and while they aren’t as big as horses, they can be very dangerous in a mob when they don’t respect your space. I’m looking forward to applying these techniques to my feeding times.
I've been doing something similar with the horses I volunteer with and it's surprising how quickly they respond to this. The few times I fed them in the stalls I noticed they were ear pinny and crowded my space a lot and they wanted me to hurry up. The past few times I've only gone in the stalls with food when their ears are forward and I only put down the food and allow them to eat when they respect my space and still have respectful ears. They'll be really rowdy at first but then simmer down after a few minutes and then they'll either been really calm and quiet or they'll be at the other end of the stall doing a small dance while licking and chewing. It's a bit intimidating when they get rowdy but feels so good when you know they respect you afterwards.
I enjoyed the drum to accompany the pun *hold your horses*.
A very good video, showing how to safely feed horses. I got kicked hard in the thigh a few weeks ago from being in a hurry and letting my guard down during feeding time. Dang! It taught me to never get complacent even after decades around horses. I try to always carry a savvy string when I’m around the horses.They respect it and I can easily establish my space with it.
I watched the Ron Pyne video too. That was impressive!
I too was very blessed to have sensible horses. I had 5 at one time. These horses had a shotgun style barn they lived in they were free to come and go but each had their own stall. I would whistle them up to feed and they each went in order to the correct stall. I didn't really train them they just had to follow the orders of my lead gelding. So he trained them. But if everybody was not in the right place he would change them around. They all knew Sunny got grain first or nobody did.
Really good video. On a side note, I bet those horses would appreciate fly masks and some RESCUE fly traps hanging around.
i love that keep the flag in the wagon method. makes total sense. i got head clobbered at feeding time, because i did not realize the greedy mare took an aggressive dive at the mare that got feed first over her panel. thank you for this clear consistent method.
He gives such good advice!
I can't feed horses unless when I bring in the hay they are walking off as I drive them out. We also work on the whoa signal. When I'm driving them away carrying their hay I then say whoa and once they are waiting in their place with a good look on their face (ears forward, legs still) then do I toss hay over to them. Amazing how quickly a new horse picks up on this routine.
I really get alot of insights from watching your videos, feeding time has been a bit of a danger with my 2 horses, the gelding has issues, he arrived from his previous owner all bones. He's back to being the weight he should be, his anxiety has abated big time, but between times my safety was at risk. The mare now follows my cues and removes hersefl from the paddock entrance, in order to stop either of us being in harms way, she's a smart cookie. Love your work Ryan.
The big black one is stunniiiiiiiiing 💕💕👀👀
I dont have horses but noted for the miracle day i do get one
Hold your horses
Me: dies of laughter because I am weird
Willow’s revenge lol! Ryan I love your style with the horses and your dogs are impressive too. You’d be an awesome father some day to some very lucky kids, with your patience and in control demeanor. There would be world peace if people were more like you. Really enjoy your channel, especially Patreon. So much great info. God bless.
The flies look horrendous there
I love this. I didn't know horses could be like that. This should make her (and others) life so much better and saferI do this with my dogs at feeding time.
OMG that Ron Pyne video was fantastic. At first I didn't realize there were tubs on the ground. I thought they were just lining up. But standing over the tubs and not eating is insane!! Great trainer.
Thanks for introducing Ron Pyne. I would love to learn what he is doing. I found just 3 videos. I did subscribe.
Please suggest he do more TH-cam.
Go lady you Can do it👍 and Ryan you are The best🙏
I do this with my horses and I do make my 3 year filly lower her head before she can eat I had no idea that was a thing I just did to get her to calm down some because she gets sooooooo excited over her grain! Super cool lesson! 🙂
Sooooo right. Applies to dogs too!
Excellent!! Great technique for feeding safety!!❤
Awesome video super helpful 💯
Thanks man!
I hope she is laughing out of nervousness and embarrassment. I glad that you are here to help!!
First thing: those horses need fly spray. Any horse is going to be antsy when they have a cloud of flies around them. Second, why are they getting grain - are they getting worked hard? Sometimes a horse reacts to grain like a kid reacts to candy - they get a buzz and behave badly. Third, horse snot is hazardous! Hilarious.
Anybody who thinks it's MEAN! to whack a horse with a string or whip (not talking about raising welts) has never been bitten or kicked. It's no fun to have a 1000# animal come at you with their ears pinned and teeth bared - you can get killed or injured by a horse. You need to figure out who should be in charge: you, or a bad tempered toddler in a 1000# body.
9:09 "Hold your horses" 🤣🤣🤣
Made we very aware I have been letting my gelding crowd. I will start working on this.
Thank you for your great, practical and easy to understand and apply training ideas. I have learned so much and with one young little mare it has helped so much. Joining your patreon page as your tips just work!!
Awesome ❣️❣️ OMG 😳 what beautiful BIG Horses. ❣️❣️❣️💖🤩🤩🤩🤩
Thankyou Ryan, I can't wait to try this with my gelding when I heal up, for now I am going to show this to my daughter so that she won't get hurt like me 😉
This is excellent teaching.
The simplest things, done well👍🏻
Awesome! I did this with packs of 14 or more dogs.. The dogs were easy as I stood completely still and only moved (to the food bin/dishes) if the dog pack was laying down, even one dog moving and I would not move ..when I got 2 horses my mare was dominate over powering fatso and I just did what I did with my dogs, Altho I used a horse whip. ..sometimes I would touch her to move her, but now 3 yrs in and she is respectful and my TB gelding can eat his full meal and neither are crowding me and the feed cart!
My horse responds to the command "back up" to get out of my space (trained him originally with pressure, too). I hate horses that crowd you for feed.
Feeding time is always dangerous. Horses or cattle - it doesn't matter. You need a plan and you never let your guard down.
beautiful horses! how many hands? thank you for sharing this!
Excellent and professional presentation!!!
Your videos have helped me a lot! Especially the problem horse ones! Most of my horses are problem horses 😅
Discipline leader is a disciplined herd
I was shocked that someone was feeding like that in the first place. As someone else pointed out, why would you not feed from the outside?
Separate piles help along with space respect to stop bickering among horses. We did 2 horses 3 piles 4=5 piles etc. All in one area never so good!
SOOO HELPFUL
Thank you for this video. I have a pushy pony (soon to be gelded). I had been doing this sort of. Now I can see I had the right idea and will be more confident. Will make him stay away until I give him the okay. I wasn’t making him wait patiently. I will be now!!
Thank you for this video
Horse Trainers like to say "does that make sense?" :)🤠
You’re excellent!! Thanks for another great video!!
I’m revisiting this because my horse charged me when I came into the pen today, then when I told her to back up went back two steps then turned and started bucking. I thought she was gonna kick me but she didn’t, thank God. I need to bring the flag whip in and train them like this.
That kind of behavior isn't acceptable. Through groundwork you can adjust her charging you then running away at feeding time.
If she put pressure on me (charging you) then wheeled off and went to running I'd say intercept her at the drive line to either change direction or halt her.
Round pen work could really help solidify this concept. Lastly, it's okay as humans to drive horses away from their hay pile and "occupy" the pile for a minute.
Think like a horse, this means volumes to them.
She a nice gal, I can just tell. I cant help but think that maybe a back up feeding plan/strategy should be looked into. I say this in regards to, or if, someone that is green around horses has to step in in her absence (like on a trip) take on the task of feeding those horses.
For the cost of that nice covered feeder, you buy a several Fortex rubber pans to slide under the rail.
Great advice.
Great video
My Bo likes to make sure everyone has the same thing, so my daughter just ties his happy ass 😒 up....till everyone is done.....no one will mess with him....he's a senior horse n have been with one other horse for 16yrs, so they have mutual respect for each other....but we have a young jack n another young horse....all is good now....
She is too timid to ever make this happen. Is she or the horses boss?
I am somewhat ashamed to admit that I laughed at your hold your horses joke. But then again, I am okay with dad jokes as I crack them myself.
oh god ur so funny! i gotta sign up!😮
This lesson was very helpful for the lady, she needs to have her own space, or one day she will get hurt, horses learn very quickly.
So I just want to say don’t feed like this but stopped myself because who cares what I think. Then I read the comments 😂. This video is a great lesson that you must own the space. There are just way better ways to setup feeding. Specially if they are coming in to a stall at night. Thank you for putting it out there
Hi Ryan, I enjoy your videos very much, I gotta little idea I would like to share, and if that catches your interest maybe that would help you improve your videos.
There is this tv show in my country about a professional famous restaurant creator, which visits restaurants that need help with their business. (I'm sure you can see the analogy here)
The creator looks at the business owners' issues, and revolutionizes their whole restaurant. Sometimes its a whole metamorphosis. But there is this strong "managing" and psychology component. So after the metamorphosis and tutoring the business owners, the creator leaves them for about two weeks alone. And makes a second unannounced visit. That brought to surface any leftover issues, and decided if the creator will put his name as a quality check of the restaurant.
I'm pretty sure you can see where I am getting at. In simple words, have you considered re-visiting your clients to see how they are doing after some time after the tutoring, to basically help them strengthen their new habits with taking care about their horses?
I hope I am not too crazy bringing that to the table. I'm sure re-visits might be little difficult logistically...
This was good
the decipline he is saying she needs to display about the horses needs to expand to herself as well
Works awesome
My mom says that you worked with her cousin Jennifer’s horses do you have any videos about it? If not I was just wondering.
Thank you
i feed the horseys carrots every day on the field :D tbf its wild and i love it
That's asking to get hurt.
Don't those feeders go thru the fence?
I can’t imagine that owners like this have no clue about protecting your space. This is horse training 101, and along with establishing the leadership role, this should be required learning well before you buy that very first horse.
Kk doc.. she does seem rather clueless
True, but I’ve seen horse people with years of experience go full on stupid when feeding or handing out treats.
@@jeanettewaverly2590 True. There can be a place for carrots on occasion, but on your terms. I really like Steve Young Horsemanship. He’s a guy from Britain who takes on “dangerous” horses that are only dangerous because the owners have not taught them who is the leader and how to teach to stop unrequested forward motion. He works with kindness, but quality making your idea become the horses’ idea. The videos are long since his wife films the destination trips too, but I’ve learned so much from him.
I don't think this is a training issue but rather a management issue. In the pasture, loose horses are dangerous, period. As Ryan said, even kind horses will put themselves first when retreating from a bully. If a puny human is in the way, he gets knocked down or run over. Carry a buggy whip or lunge whip in the pasture. When I say it's not training, but management, I mean that if you stop carrying the whip, they will eventually return to staus quo, crowding human.
Most horse owners, and dog owners for that matter, do not train in good behavior at feeding time or around doors/gates.
We can wish it was better, but the reality is that this is a very normal situation.
How many dog owners do you know who have a great "sit, stay" command for when they open the front door.
Ryan starts waving the flag and all the horses decide to get away from the gate.
Yep I have 19. Still carry flag but they stay back till feed out
I wish I could afford that many horses 😔
Why can’t she arrange this so she doesn’t have to go inside the paddock at all? Those feeders hang on the fence, so hang them from outside. Put the hay tub next to the fence and fill it from the outside. She created this issue with this poor arrangement.
I love that sweet lady 🤗
Thanks that was great! Was it Rod Pine? I can’t find it on TH-cam
Yes Ron Pyne feeding time
"Do you have to go in?"
"😬"
"😬"
"😬"
"😬"
"Ok"
I just hope they have more room than that
Yeah this is just barnyard
Yeah, that is just the dry lot connected to the barn. They have access to 2 large pastures during the day, but are stalled at night.
Ron Pyne
Be the leader or high horse .
Ryan, you've really got to do something about a better microphone. 😀
Wrong shoes ,lady, for working around giant, heavy animals that can destroy your feet!
The fact that ppl this old don't know bare basics is mind boggling. I wonder what sort of well behaved children shes let loose into society?

I have one horses and I'm obsessed with hope I mean him you know it's a whole I don't confuse because I'm dead but I love horses so much and I went a million when I go up and I'm only 8 so yeah I believe they know this because I only have 1 so far And t Even though I'm not even saying how muchhat's not mine it's my mom
Good training! I had a friend killed at feeding time by getting kicked in the head
Too small of space for so many horses. Fix that too.
What straw cowboy hat do you wear?
Did you say Ron Pine? I can’t find him
You work your horse so good and you work horse and you ride your horse so and can I ask you my horse won't take a bit but I ride my horse with a bit la brittle is that ok win my horse some one tell s to ride my horse with a bit is that Wong to ride my horse with a bit la brittle thank you Nannette
Omg. No way .....
There are no 'bad ' horses , just bad owners who fail to take "ownership". They are the ones who who get hurt because they allow bad habits to escalate putting everyone at risk. If you allow an 1100 pound animal to dictate the rules, you lose.
I can't understand how people get in this situation? I can't recall anytime a horse has disrespected me this much. Americans are froggy pushy it doesn't seem to carry over in a horse atmosphere, when it's necessary.
Feeding is getting dangerous because the feeding person is not doing it right.
farm life must just make you give up on yourself?
Why not just close the corral distribute the feed then not endanger yourself at all?
Because it’s possible to manage your heard safely just has Ryan has demonstrated. It’s really quite simple but so effective.
what about when you open the gate for them to get to the feed? You might as well not have horses.. or you teach the horses manners like Ryan show here.
This is such an important tool, even if you only have one horse. My horse was food aggressive when I first got her and came after me. I used the flag a couple of times and now she won't eat until I release her. Even if you don't have a problem this should be a part of ground training.
My mare, owned 10 years now, very food aggressive and dominant with threats. I began first feed, that the hay was mine , just stood on hay. She got aggressive and moved to another pile. Repeated standing over that flake. Third time, stil being aggressive, she shook her head at me, asking WTH do you want? Talked quietly to her, she looked, dropped her head and took a breath. Now u can eat I said, and walked away. She waits now, no problems. Great teaching video.
They would prob "sense" impending feed and still possibly kick at her??
why doesn't she feed on the fence line? she can't be that clueless, can she? With horses that big I would build slips so that only 1 horse will fit and feed that way, I worked with over 20 polo ponies and they wouldn't get fed until each of them was in a slip, easy peasy. not danger, no injury and they could eat in peace
could she have at least combed her hair for the day of trining? what a mess
Have you never heard, “if you have nothing nice to say …….” She is courageous for allowing this to be recorded and posted on TH-cam to be helpful to others.
Be kind to yourself and others.
