How long has he been seperated? He may just need some time to calm down and settle in. I agree you def need to get him to bond to you right now. Hes looking for a buddy. Personally I would rather him bond to me than a goat He will settle in. Just keep at it and work with him every day. Bring him out treats and just make it fun to be with you.

I'd say he's been seperated about a month from them...Im really trying to be with him more even if he just follows me around while cleaning out his pen. When I am with him he is fine for the most part, unless he cant see the other two at all...then he's too busy looking around to even know im there, he is getting lots of treats everyday and things are calming down a little but he still stresses himself out...

Rice bran is a "cool burning" fat, so that shouldn't be causing the issue.

No, you do not need to worry about him overeating Bermuda hay. If anything, it will help put some weight on him.

Thanks again, Looks like I may be moving him out of the situation altogether, and soon hopefully, things are just too dramatic around here with the room mate and all....everything is a big deal, its so freaking stupid why do people have to be so damn mean...she keeps calling him a "POS" horse and just a laundry list of other things pertaining to him...im over it...
