- I will first explain why this horse is annoyed, then explain the horse body language as it happens. #horse #equestrian #horsebehavior #horsebodylanguage #americandreamfarm #horsegirl #youtuber #horsevideo
It’s fascinating to have you point out all the communication occurring between the horses. 😊
Thank you!
I love watching your horses and learning about them. Your content is wholesome, calming and educational ❤ Thank you so much!
Thanks very much! I'm so glad you are enjoying our content.
This clip transports me back to dinner time at school and all the argy bargy in the queue!! ❤️🐴😊
Right?! 🤣
Exactly what is happening to me in NW Georgia. Rains all around me and misses me. Boone must be really bothered to move Fleur and June
Yes, you know Boone is a little miffed when he moves his kid and his girl!
Loved this! Thanks Monique! 🌻🤗❤
Great observations! 😊
It's like with people and other animals: hungry = grumpy (or "hangry", which to me is one of the best recently evolved words 😄👌🐴)
So True! I know I get hangry when I'm really hungry! =]
Give Boone a Snickers, he is absolutely having a honger diva moment... everybody knows. A man;s gotta eat.
🤣🤣🤣 Very good Aldeillusions!!!
Hahaha! I did actually give Boone and Oatmeal Pie yesterday simply because he's such a handsome good boy. Does that count? 😁
Maybe dumb question: when you said survival instinct is coming out.. ex: change of season means grass isn’t as abundant as it was before so relaying more on the food that humans provide. And with this instinct coming out is it the same way as how predictors are? Meaning it’s survival of the fittest. So if there are health issues or age and weakness they would be put on lower part of hierarchy, and if (say only a small amount of food , you have 8 but only enough food for 7) does that mean one would starve, or would herd animals share the limited food? Thank you so much for your channel... I’m learning so much
This is actually a great question! We try to bring our horses in in the same order every time to cause less stress so they know how long they have to wait. The younger horses follow the lead of the older horses meaning they understand what happens next as the days get shorter and the grass goes dormant. Just like elephants learn which path to travel from their elders, as elephants are also herd animals. As far as your example of not enough food in the wild I do believe it is survival of the fittest, so older or slower or injured horses that drag behind the herd stand the least chance of survival. Our herd gets a long quite well for the most part and when we put hay out we put out six flakes about 20 feet apart so there is enough for every horse once the alpha horses have settled down on which flake they want. I hope this helps.
I think I figured out why your content is different - I think it's the vantage point. When you're in the house, behind glass, it's much more of a true observation of herd dynamics.
Thank you! Totally organic.
@@Americandreamfarm yes! I follow some wild horse drone content and even with the drone, the horses know the drone is there.
Hmm- sounds like my husband! 😂 Boone is hangry!
🤣🤣🤣That's probably what they really mean when they say 'the way to a man's heart is through his stomach'!!
@@sleepinglioness5754 😂🤣 YES!
🤣🤣😂
Intriguing 💖
Thank you! =]
How can you tell if a horse is glad to see you
They will approach you with some pep in their step and have their neck and head higher than usual with ears pointed at you and will sometime vocalize.
