[RC] horse potty trained itself - michelle

My horse is going on her 7th week of being pastured by herself. (She had
previously been on my almost 3 acre pasture with a gelding. I sold the
gelding, and hopefully tomorrow I will be getting a new horse.)

I am trying to go out and spend more time with her and I am amazed at what
I am finding. My back pasture, that has no trees and is where she mostly
grazes, has no poop in it. It used too be full of pooping spots when I had
the two horses. But now my mare just poops in the little woodsy, hilly
area of my pasture that is close to the barn.

I think it's really smart of her. Now she has more places to graze. My
pasture still looks great, even with it being so dry here (n. KY).

Now I'm hoping she can teach the new horse, a 17 yr old arab mare, to poop
in the right spot!!

Has any one else ever seen this?

She's an 8 year old half arabian half shagya mare. Who is really doing
better than I thought she would being by herself. I think it's been a good
learning experience for her. She seems a little braver and more
independent. She spent the first 6 years of her life in a big herd of
mares.
