    I love how they let the horses grow up before they start training. Something you don’t see much now, sadly. Hope they keep up the good work!

      In my country we have horse breed called Kladruber horse and in the stud they start working with them after they are 3 years old they let them grow peacefuly too.

      We start our colts at 2, but after 20-30 days we let them grow, we do this because at 2 they are more open to learning, and we breed quarter horses

      Most breeding facilities I visited keep horses in the fields untill they are 3 yo then they usually back them a little do a potential buyer can ride the horse walk trot canter and then if not sold they go back to a field untill they are 4 yo when they start serious work and competing.

    I really respect the breeders who give their horses a really quality life. Lots of breeders keep their horses always indoors and start the babies in training very early. A horse should be able to experience life like a horse.

    Atleast transfering embrios is more humane than taking away a nurse mares foal so she can feed a more expensive foal

      Taking foals away from nurse mares has been my pet peeve for many years. Thank God many famous breeding farms do embryo transfer. Great, informative video with gorgeous horses! Also thought that dark bay mare was a stallion, she is incredible!

      There are now methods being used to bring older dry mares that were proven good mothers into lactation and grafting foals onto them. Once that becomes SOP, the method of removing foals from mares will disappear.

    Horses these days are bred to be more athletic and fast than would be required in the wild. That means they need even more time to develop. So especially sport horses should be started after the age of 5 to not cause any long term damage.

    • @TheNonMakeupGuru
      @TheNonMakeupGuru 5 лет назад +11

      not actually true. You can start as young as three with out causing any issues. theres a different between starting and heavy training

    • @lucasa1849
      @lucasa1849 5 лет назад +3

      TheNonMakeupGuru . Yeah I agree but too many people don’t start light.
      And I feel like the horse needs to mentally mature as well.

    • @callysto_ii
      @callysto_ii 5 лет назад +5

      3's still awfully young to start under saddle, even for "light" work, it's still carrying another extra 50 to 60kg on an immature skeleton, that's a lot of trauma that could be spared by just waiting a year or so longer at least.... I know I wouldn't start a horse until 4 and "real" work until 7, might take a lot of patience but you'll be grateful once your horse reaches 20 and can still healthly work with little to no arthritis, but that's just me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    • @elisehermann6094
      @elisehermann6094 5 лет назад +4

      I believe it depends on the breed as well? I raised a Connemara and they are slow to mature compared to some of the large sport horses. He didn’t look really filled out and grown till he was about 6.

      Equestrian Edits they remove the fertilised egg so the mare who’s bloodline they want to continue isn’t actually pregnant for more than a few days. This solves the biggest difficulty in a humane way.

    Have to say I was there, when an "embryo wash" was taking place at my stable. Never heard a horse scream like this before. Still gives me the chills. Idk if it was pain or not. At 5 1/2 months? This is a full fledged factory. Nothing more to say.

      An embryo wash is done at about a week after breeding before the fertilized egg implants. Sounds like your "embryo wash" was a uterine flush being done after the mare aborted.

      I think you mean "surrogate". And that's what they're doing.

    • @mageofdoomsie1598
      @mageofdoomsie1598 5 лет назад +2

      But to get a surrogate mare the mare has to have a foal already so she can produce milk, and most mares can’t fully support two foals properly, since milk is a finite resource in the mother, so a lot of times the original foal is taken away so the more expensive fancier foal can feed. And it doesn’t always work, since that baby won’t smell like her original baby and she might reject it. It’s just safer to do an embryo transfer so the surrogate can give birth to “her” baby and raise it, while also not leaving another baby without a mom

    • @silverdirtdraws9828
      @silverdirtdraws9828 5 лет назад

      @@mageofdoomsie1598 they dont give an already born foal to a surrogate, they take the fertilised egg from the desired mother and place it in an unfertilised mare who then goes through the pregnancy.
      This keeps the original mare able to continue working while breeding.

    • @mageofdoomsie1598
      @mageofdoomsie1598 5 лет назад

      SilverDirt Draws ohh no I’m not talking about that practice, I approve of that one too. There’s another practice going on where they just take mares who have already given birth to a foal and they take THAT foal away so the “better” foal can be raised and the original mom can keep showing or whatever. I know the process of putting a fertilized egg in another mare, which is much better than that.

    Nice facilities for sport horses! But they are still babys at 3yo.. too young to start being ridden as they wont be fully developed until 5yo, I wonder if it would be possible to start riding at 4yo and just hand walk and lunging when they are 3? It is just a year so what is all the hurry?
