herd of horses will hunch together, ueg- j
lect. their food, become restive, neigh ;
mid rub noses when in n tteld. Th* |
•utcome is tnat the herd will not hIIow
themselves to tie saddled or harnessed .
and will chase and attempt to kick th*

They desert their nests and leave their !
eggs to become cold and barren. The
mate naturally becomes greatly con

creation the male will never attack the
female, so there is no remedy. War
