@Sting, ah makes sense. You said they are called honey eaters? I have heard of bee eaters. Saw them at the Bronx zoo once!

You are right. I always grew up with them being called hummingbirds. but a quick google tells me ours are different to yours.
Still nectar lovers, but not as much 'humming' activity

@Sting, you live in Australia right? If so I am positive there aren't hummingbirds there. Sorry.
Narran Park

Actually they are "Honey-eaters"

Bird it would make sense, a lot of read dye in our food has been known to cause problems in the body.
I may not be 100% right, I believe Cancers and urinary problems.
I was all ways to avoid red dye in food and drinks growing up because of an over active bladder.
Narran Park
09:28:46 Sting
we have them here too. Also bee-eaters.

@Sting, yeah hummingbirds are only found in North and South America.

@Sunni, I haven't done research, but I have heard similar things about red dye. They don't need it to be attracted to the feeder.
Narran Park
09:23:55 Sting
I need to look into it.
I dont think feeding hummingbirds is much of a thing here in Australia.

It should be though!
Sunni

Bird she was running around filling all the feeders during the conversation.
She has about 6 of them.
She makes the sugar water herself.
She says the red dye in it is bad for them.

Talking about hummingbirds for an hour sounds like something someone who is on the spectrum might do. I can be guilty of steering the topic away to something that interests me.

She probably wouldn't talk about it if she was.
It took her ages to tell me the doctor tried diagnosing me with autism as a kid. She wasn't happy about that answer and told them "nope she isn't."
Sunni

Bird not to my knowledge, if anything she is very OCD.

Do you have access to a small arena, large stall, or a round pen? You could try free lunging her, and giving her something interesting to do, like go over a pole or small jump

If she wants to go fast and not listen, make her bored. I have a barrel horse that wants to be all gas and no breaks, which is usually what I ask for to be fair, but if I want her to slow down and start really listening to learn something new, I'll pick a place in the pasture and just start trotting circles. I use both hands on the reins for as long as I need to show her where the circle is, then we I loosen up the reins and trot circles for as long as it takes for her to relax. I know she's relaxed when I can switch directions without contact on the bit and stop with minimal contact. By that time, she's doing a slow, smooth trot because she knows that she isn't really going anywhere and going fast isn't going to change anything. Then, we can work on whatever slow thing I want to work on with it. It's just a matter of letting her know that there's no reason to go fast and that she can have her head and relax. Works wonders for her.


I rode her today and tried this, and she was a lot better, she was giving me a nice slow trot, she would still try to bust into a dead run when j asked for a canter, but I will take the small victories!

My friend has a trainer she uses on her horses that I am considering having come out and see if he has any tips or ideas.


A trainer sounds like your best bet. He'll be able to troubleshoot better in person than people can online :)

Maybe try and get the trainer out? And in the meantime just try to make headway on her trot, and don't worry so much about cantering until you can get help.
