Poor Cabo. Life must really suck when you are one little dude stuck in a field with 2 mares. 
No really, we should feel a little sorry for the guy. Cabo is the type of gelding who LOVES play time. Back at Red Barn, he could be seen with a gang of 4 other geldings roughly his age, partaking in some good ole gelding games.
And now, with the girls...he's deprived. He's tried his best to play...and my mares just walk away. Irritated, he's taken his frustration to now just driving the girls away. Not agressive- the girls aren't allowed near the gate within an hour of turn-in time. HE WHO MUST BE FIRST.
I'm hoping my mares wise up a little and just steer clear. Faith, especially. With winter comes softer, sloppier ground. And though we're quickly making plans to lessen the blow, winter ain't easy on that mare's legs. And so Cabo chasng her off is the last thing she needs.
If worst comes to worst, I'll have to separate him from the girls. I'm just hoping someone cool who owns a couple geldings will come board at this place. I think with a little play time, plus his soon-to-be work schedule, he'll forget about chasing off his women.
