hee hee I dunno, but when I was at Hopewell, they told me that Skip Away would sometimes be turned off by a mare, so if that happened, they'd get him excited with a mare he liked, and then "switch them out" so he was physically covering the mare he was PAID to cover, all the while looking at the "cute one" next to her.
Swear to God . . .

I hope mares don't get hurt feelings.

That's the boy I heard of too Toc. They had to cover the mares with rugs so he would perform. It is driving me right bonkers that I can not remember his name!!!

My blaze-faced chestnut's lesbian lover is another blaze-faced chestnut. I've noticed that the mares who think they're stallions PREFER to "cover" gray mares. We have a pretty large herd, and the "group by color" seems to apply only to the chestnut mares.
