We had 1 horse in with the sheep and now the horse is gone!! I saw him actually pick a full grown ewe up by the back of the neck and THROW her across the field. He didn't like to share the hay or feed, and was pestered by the lambs. I was terrified that he would stomp the babies on purpose. And, a friend of mine is nursing a 3 month lamb with a broke front leg and gapping neck wound because her horse done the same thing!!!
