Sounds like she's in season. Has long and often has this been happening?

Hi Elaine,

I would second Karen's thought. I would imagine she is in heat. Some are very showy when in heat and will lift their tails, "wink" and squat. It shouldn't be happening for days on end however.


Check out more under
Equine reproduction >> Horse breeding and artificial Insemination >>Heat Detection, Ovulation Prediction and Timing Insemination to see if her patterns are similar to the article.

That should give you an idea.

Is she on her own, or are there other horses with her?
