The 2 males, Icelander and Pirelli have not been able to work out their dominance issues. So we have made the decision to modify their pasture and portion of the barn.
Over the past 2 days we have run a fence along a tree line conveniently located in the middle of the pasture, creating 2 smaller paddocks one for each guy. We did have to add boards along the top of the wire, Icelander stood on his side of the fence making taunting noises at Pirelli which of course Pirelli could not ignore, and went crashing over the fence to put Icelander back in his place.
We then divided the inside of the barn into 2 stalls and added another exit to the outside.
Miraculously things have quieted down considerable although the fellas are still within spitting distance.
