Loves the bit. . . almost too much!

My mare was introduced to a bit (and a bridle) about 5 months ago. Training has been slow, but ever since her first time with the bridle on (it was almost too easy) she will suck on anything! I woke up this morning to find that she had her halter off, but did not go any where, she was sucking on the poll band just like it was a bit, and when I took it from her, she started to suck on the rope :grin: So I put a piece of nylon rope on her halter so she could suck on it while I groomed her, she was as happy as ever :) So what funny quirks do your horses have?

I have a almost 10 month old colt who is extremely mouthy. I can hardly get a halter on him because he tries to put the noseband in his mouth. I have also introduced him to a snaffle and he loves it. Bridling him should be no problem in the future. It's easier to bridle him than to halter him. :lol: Keeping things OUT of his mouth has been my biggest problem!
