No lines, and no chasing. You just don't know our way and I'll leave it at that.

I wasn't a super fan of Warwick until I saw an article heading that said something like Let Your Horse Approach You
(Yes literally only read the title)
And it's made a Huge improvement in my interactions with the horses at the barn.
I can have the stall door open and have them between me at it (huge outdoor pen) and they will chose to come to me and boop my hand without any interaction besides standing still.

And I saw a video where he said don't touch the horse until they touch you and they will tell you where to touch

(Some of it feels woowoo, but it's making a difference in the relationships between the horses and I)

Yeah of course, it’s definitely a trust the process kind of exercise you have to be patient and you’ll feel like you’re not doing anything but worth it. I enjoy when training feels more collaborative with our animal friends, worth the time it takes

And seconding Warwick Schiller, he's one of the few clinicians I really respect.

Awww good pony! It just sounds like typical laziness/not being confident enough to carry himself forward. He'll get there!
Minerva

Ooh I'll have a look at that one, thanks Red!
Minerva
01:34:16 Min
Haha exactly Puck! I'm hoping the more we go out the more keen he'll be to get on with it. He's a very good chap overall- and he's even happy to walk out in front of Minnie if I've got someone to lead her. He met his first tractor last night and was a 10/10 brave boy bless him

Unless your lunge lunge is 200 feet long it's gonna be a small circle lol
Red Horizon Ranch
01:33:01 Red
And no chasing, showing them who’s boss, etc. necessary. I really don’t enjoy having to do that kind of thing and good news, you really basically never have to XD

I said nothing about small circles, but whatever.
We have a different view of how to do things with 2 yr olds.

I really like Warwick Schiller’s “leading with energy” exercise for staying in the right position/responsiveness when leading, my mate was so “lazy” seeming and wanted to be directly behind me while leading, would pin her ears and swish tail when asked to go forward, it worked incredibly well
Minerva
01:31:33 Min
To be honest the maximum I'd ever lunge any horse is like 20 minutes, and that would be their entire work for the day. It has it's place but isn't my preferred method for anything
FirstLightFarms

Min, he sounds like my pony! Just needs to learn a little responsibility about walking forward instead of being dragged every step 😂
FirstLightFarms
01:30:05 puck
Yeah it'd hurt, small circles are the worst for babies. Great way to do damage to their joints. And chasing a horse on the line isnt exactly the best way to establish you're in charge 🙃
Minerva
01:29:48 Min
That's great Puck, thank you! He naturally likes to put himself behind me, although we've been working on that and he's much happier walking out nicely now. When we're out and about he plants a few times right at the start, then likes to march. He's definitely more of a woah than go pony, which will be great when I'm backing him in a few years, but not ideal with ride and lead haha

Going in circles for more than a few minutes is not good for baby joints
Pentagram Stables

Creek - it's not like he'd be asked to canter, or even trot for an entire hour. lol
It wouldn't hurt him any, and he might just get the idea who's in charge.
Minerva
01:26:11 Min
Yeah he's lost his treat privileges sadly- we do scratches as rewards now and he gets a lick for big things like farrier
FirstLightFarms
01:25:23 puck
Babies are so lazy and uncertain lmao. I hate ponying the greenies.
When you walk him on foot, does he follow you or walk at your shoulder? Do you have to drag him or does he move off/ respond to your energy without the rope getting involved?
Work on getting him a little lighter on the lead rope on the ground, and that should translate into ponying.
And if nothing else, stand still on your pony and bump bump with the lead rope until he's at your knee. Then step forward, bump bump until he's at your knee. He does not get a release until his head is at your knee. Even if you get on and take one step at a time for a ride or so, eventually he'll realize its easier to just walk forward and stay at your knee than it is to be dragged behind.

Oh yeah missed the hour part- he'd be on for like 5 minutes to razz him up haha. I don't hammer babies don't worry!

Welcome to Trivia!
Every Sunday, either the Afternoon or Evening trivia team hosts a game of trivia. In an off-site chat, players will be asked a series of questions and given an opportunity to answer and win ebs or bonus prizes.
Here is an FAQ for players both new and experienced to Trivia:
When is Trivia?
Trivia is every Sunday. The Afternoon team will run at 1pm Gametime, while the Evening team will run at 8pm Gametime. Gametime can be found in the upper right hand corner of HEE.
How do I join Trivia?
When the Trivia chat opens, a link will usually be placed into the HEE chat.
You may also visit the official HEE Trivia Forum HERE. You can find the Link to the Trivia Chatroom on the first post of the first page. It will take you to the HEE Chat Party.
When choosing your name/alias, simply type in your stable name AND your stable number. For example, I would type in "FirstLightFarms-287414".
This allows us to moderate the chat more easily and keep track of prize giving.
When choosing a color, DO NOT CHOOSE BRIGHT RED. This is reserved for the Trivia Team, as chat goes quickly and questions can get lost sometimes. This rule has been enforced for the ease and accessibility of everybody playing.
How do I play Trivia?
Though the chat will sometimes open as early as half-an-hour before Trivia begins, Trivia will not start until 1 or 8pm Gametime on the dot.
Trivia comprises of three separate themes. Each theme will have four questions each, totalling to 12 questions asked per Trivia.
The Question-Asker, with the bright red name, will post a question in chat. Sometimes the question will pop-up, sometimes the chat is going quickly and it fails to do so. This is simply a host website problem and nothing any of us can fix.
When the question is asked, you can click on it. It will be a multiple-choice question. Players are given fifty seconds to answer it.
Answer the question by typing in the letter to the answer you think is correct, AND your stable number.
Answers given without the stable number will not be able to be recorded and the player will not be able to receive credit for a correct answer.
What are the rules of Trivia?
The same rules apply to the Trivia chat that do to the HEE chat. These rules can be found HERE.
Beyond that, we do have a few other rules. These include:
1. No cheating. No discussing answers in chat, no Googling, no calling a friend, nothing. If you do not know the answer, simply make a guess. Discussing Trivia answers can happen AFTER Trivia is over.
2. Your name cannot be bright red.
3. Include your stable number in your name AND in your answers.
4. Have fun!
What happens if I win Trivia?
Each week we have an extremely generous prize pool. The winner of each Theme will receive 100,000 ebs. The second-place player will receive 70,000 ebs. The third-place player will receive 40,000 ebs.
On top of that, we do accept bonus-prize donations. You may send them to the Trivia Team up to half-an-hour before Trivia begins.
We accept items, ebs, broods, horses, art, rerolls, upgrades, and more.
We do discourage straw prizes, as many of our Trivia players are free accounts and cannot use straws, though we are thankful for the generosity of all of our donors.
Is there anything else I should know?
Join the Club! We have a Trivia Club where you can join and receive updates in regards to the schedule, bonus prizes, and more! Each Sunday the Themes and time will be sent out as a Gamemail.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to ask them below. I and the rest of the Trivia Team will do our best to answer them, as well as update the Guide if necessary.
Thank you for reading, and we will see you next Sunday!
