I understand Jami not wanting to move Rita over to the JL with Dinky Darryl. Makes sense. Too much change. Keeping it simple is best. You just started this process. Too much change is not good. Slow down your expectations. ❤
I met Lester at Tractor Supply this morning in Livingston I just bought some property in the area and was so happy to see him buying his feed his first words were I'm not as dumb as I look on the channel he is a great story teller and I wish him and Jamie the best they are such good human beings for giving all the animals their best lives ❤️
Lester, as long as Grandpa & Duke are living in the pasture next door, they WILL find a way to get to Rita when she comes in heat. Voodoo will have been severely injured for nothing, if you don't learn anything from that last Grandpa "visit". Stallions can/will jump fences to get to a mare, and your bull pen fences aren't 8'' tall. So, respectfully, I suggest NOT moving Rita to the JL, nor either of the other "girls" either.
100% of the time, I agree with you, Lester. On this, I totally disagree with the idea of taking her to the JL. Those horses were brought back for their safety because of the neighbors' stallions. It doesn't matter how secure you believe the bull pen to be you can't prevent a mare who's in heat from being penitrated by a male if there are any holes around that area of her backside. Now, if you plan on completely enclosing it, maybe you'd have a chance. I may be wrong, but I wouldn't take the chance.
Just a reminder..you have two intact stallions next door who will get to her at all costs when she's in season. They go through fences. JL ranch. They will hurt dinky to have her.
Have you forgotten what happened to VooDoo? Those horses would hurt her too especially when she’s in “season”. It would also hurt Stormy if she’s gone. Plus Daryl was abused there by the other donkey and horses. It may bring back bad memories. You guys need to find a Horse Whisperer.
That was my first thought, too, but Lester Assured us that the bullpen Is secure and nothing can get out or in, and therefore neighbouring horses will not be able to get in to Rita. This made me feel much better about her security and safety. 😅❤❤❤🙌🏻
Oh I would worry about the males next door ..I think the boys would be a dangerous situation 😢 they got to your horses before and hurt voodoo …I agree with Jami it’s a big NO
I'm not sure it would be good for Dinky to go back to where he was neglected. Might be traumatic for him. He was moved and feels the love of the other animals and ya'll. ❤❤❤
Lester just want to thank you for your dedication to Rita. You have admitted that Longhorns are your passion, and horses are Jami's. For you to learn to train along side Rita is a man with a compassionate heart. Jami has her hands full and is learning as well. I know you will do what's right for Rita and her misfit sidekick Dinky. People with knowledge just need to be less aggressive with their criticism they throw at you. Say it in a nice way, you get better results.
I appreciate your heart so much Lester!! We all know your longhorns are your love but I so love that you have taken Rita under your wing. She loves her Daddy and I think respects you a bit more than Jaime. Thank you for loving her as we all do. We love and adore her for the spunky lil teenager she is. The best outcome possible was the day her former owners tied her to that fence at ima survivor. They knew you would love her and care for her and more importantly TEACH her to be a great horse… Lovely miss Senorita, you struck gold with Daddy Wester and Mama Jaime!!! Love me some Rita !!!!❤❤❤❤❤😊
It is difficult to know what to do with Rita. She has so much energy she is like a race horse needing lots of exercise. JL has nice flat ground with plenty of space. It’s almost as if she needs to go daily or regularly to the JL ranch for lounging and a good run around and then come back with you at night time. Would it be possible to get a walk on horse box with a proper ramp and take her with you at times. Like going to the races. Having the male horses next door might be a problem if you are not in attendance unless you build an enclosed indoor stable for her to stop in if you are not there. But she is used to being free to run around. Not an easy decision at all. You have to do what you think is right between you.
I personally don’t think taking Rita elsewhere is a good idea. I think the separation would create more issues when it’s time to integrate back to the herd. I think that the absence would cause a bigger rift between the equine’s. Sorry Lester ❤
Lester, bad idea - if something happened to you because something Rita did/does then you're alone and maybe won't be able to work the phone - if ya got to train her, do it among people specifically Jami or one of your horse helpers
Yep, this is all totally normal. She will even probably go through it again with Storm to an extent. Nothing is fast with horses, it all takes time. Moving her often will be confusing for her. My honest opinion is that you would be better of keeping her at the LL property. She needs working daily yes, but also needs the normalcy and a herd, even from the other side of the fence. It's healthy for her to learn with distraction, will make her more accepting.
If you are hopeful to integrate Rita back with the herd, taking her away is probably not going to benefit that reunion. Distractions are something to work on with her, I realize it makes your training more difficult. In the long run, it will benefit you both. Good luck and persevere.
Lester, I truly enjoy watching you with Rita! I think you are doing great! Rita is a beautiful girl who I believe wants to be a very good girl and I definitely feel you are on the right track! Thank you Lester for shsring❤
Also, I have always said I respect your decision! If Rita going over to JL Ranch is what your heart leads you to do….I know she will be very loved, cared for and trained! Hugs Lester on making a decision.
Lester it would be better to keep Rita where she is . Because of the other horses that belong to hour neighbors . They will find away to get to Rita . But it's your choice . Love watching your videos . I lived in New Caney for a few years but grew up in Houston . Now live in Ohio .
Taking Rita over to the JL would result in both her and Daryl getting serious injured or potentially one of the neighbours horses as mares have been known to kill stallions who try to get frisky when they are not in the mood. The neighbours horses will get in again unless you are going to build seven foot dmzs as you call them. if you want her to reintegrate into the herd keep doing the ground work and allowing her to stay acquainted through the fence for now,
I think moving her around so much is gonna stress her and make her anxiety higher. Also you have the neighboring horses and they are not gelded which cause a big risk to be honest. When nature calls animals will do whatever it takes to "make it happen"
Rita Needs a leader hopefully prim will be that horse ❤ that will show her right from wrong, sorry the humans don't know how to do it 😉 it's great to hear your learning ❤❤
Believe me stallions can & will go over a 6 foot fence after a mare. Where my mare & gelding where kept years ago a loose stud jumped a 6 foot, pole fence & proceeded to do his duties. Please don't take anyone back to JL. Love to all😊
Sweet Rita is like Hey I'm Rita, I'm a little spit fire but I would like to possible be your friend" lol I sure do love Rita and she will get better as time goes by.
Lester and Jami I think that you both need to discuss any plans to change Rita’s training with Courtney and Rick, and as for moving her to the JL Ranch once again, I think this needs to be discussed with Courtney and Rick as it has serious consequences for both Rita and the herd. ❤❤❤🙌🏻
I know that!...he says..lol I appreciate the fact that you asked for opinions and advice, but I think Rick and Kourtney need to be your go-to's since you trust them. I can't imagine how overwhelmed you must be with thousands of people telling you something different and being so critical. I've even erased comments that I've made because people will attack for no reason. You asked for advice, we give you advice, and then other people basically tell us to shut up and not give you advice.
That's not a good idea to move her to the bullpen. She needs her horse friends. Got to remember she needs interaction everyday with Jami, she is a thoroughbred not a quarter horse. She is always going to be full of herself. Thoroughbreds are bred to race. They are full of energy and unpredictable. But you gotta love them. My mare is 15 now.
Animals feel fear and Rita knows Jami fears her. Jami somehow needs to change the fear to respecting Rita but showing Rita she is top horse. Sending her *Rita* to the JL, you will do what you wish. I still think she needs to go to Courtney for a few months. She is trained and has the knowledge to give her manners. She did wonders with Barbie.
My only thought about taking Rita to J & L is she already seems to have a bit of an attitude towards Jami at times. If you take her away & she doesn't see Jami as much, it's going to make it worse. I also wouldn't her to get hurt because the next-door neighbors decide they're going to break in again.
Good evening Lester Jamie, thank you so much for being about horses. I love horses. I love all animals, but horses are my. No we missed you and I love when you tip your hat.😊 beautiful Rita as long as they have food I don’t think they’re gonna wanna introduce I think it would be absolutely beautiful with five horses running in the pasture playing eat and have fun going in the pond beautiful property you are right Lester you are doing the right thing keeping her tied up at first is a good thing just my opinion😊 no no she’s OK. That’s the way them horses are. That’s how they greet their selves. Get to know each other. Rita’s not doing nothing wrong. She smelling them and she’s letting them smell her. That’s normal for horses to do that. She wants to get no prim because prim is new to her. She won’t pump around. I’ll tell you that prim is too big is older and won’t allow it. It is good that reader is by the horses. She’s very young and she’s learning to be a horse at sometime and them altogether in the same pasture would bemy gold. Just like in the wild, they will scrabble a little bit and they will learn who’s Boss, well you know what I mean, Lester horses are one of the animals that are very jealous of each other😮 thank you for this video Lester ❤
Agree with most on here that it's not a good idea to take any mares to JL, especially during breeding season. You already know there's at least 1 if not 2 stallions with strong libidos next door. They will jump fences and go to great lengths to get to a mare. And believe or not, they can breed through fences. Just hoping you think very hard about that decision. Better yet, talk to Rick. JMO ❤️
Lester I think you’re doing amazing with sweet Rita . Yeah your not a horse person and know little but what your doing is great ! As my nanna used to say Roma wasn’t built in a day ! So it will take time but you will get there and I love seeing your videos with her .
Gotta agree with the no mainly because of the horses next door. Never count that out of happening. Also, taking her further from horses won’t help her be one. Perhaps keep taking her over to the fence everyday. Lunge her is not her big priority. She has so much more to learn before that just about being a horse that can behave. To separate her that much would make her worse and use to be only one. Just my thoughts.
Grandpa and the other 2 horses will find a way to get to her. Dinky Darrell won't stand a chance with them and you aren't there at night. What would of happened to Voo that night if yall hadn't been there.
They need an expert to train her. They have done it themselves so far without success. I am afraid they are setting her up for failure, then will get rid of her.
@@cherylfauth9543 By the comment I made,I didn't add that they will not listen or get an expert to teach them! Also, there are videos out there that are pretty darn good that can teach them, depending what they wil do in the future.
From a non horse person, your idea sounds good to me Lester. I like the one on one time spent together learning together. It's flat land over there too. I can understand Jami's reluctance too. What ever you and Jami decide, will be the correct one.
Hi-ta-Hello lord Lester! Doing lots of little things to work with Rita will add up to big changes. You're doing a wonderfully loving job! Love you Lester! 💛
Breakfast at the fence is a great idea. You can graduate yo short pasture visits. No to JL. Stallions after a mare in heat are vicious. They will find a way. And you haven't fixed the fence yet from where they got in last time.
I kind of hope you re-think about this new move. The horses have been moved so much! Is it good to do that? What about the horses next door? Just concerned.
I have absolutely 💯 no knowledge, but I have all the confidence in the world in you two. I love the shows! I live bi-curiously watching everyone's channels.😂❤ I could only wish rescuing, saving, and loving all the animals. Thank you for sharing.❤
Rita impressed me, it did not look like she started the "noise", she was just reacting to Prims snorts. And I with Jami on this one, she needs to stay near her herd so if you integrate them, it will not be so traumatic for Rita.
I think you’re doing great with Rita! I do think she needs to stay where she can see the day to day at the JL. Try keeping your focus and not getting distracted yourself. Horses play off your feelings and emotions. If you aren’t distracted and can stay focused then she will focus on you and tune everything out!
Lester with all due respect, Rita is a handful of a horse (I love her), and she is going to require an experienced person to train her and eventually ride her. It is very unlikely that Rita will ever be a safe riding horse for anyone less that an intermediate or experienced rider. Especially if she never gets any concentrated professional training. I know you love your animals but sometimes for the good of and safety of everyone, human and animal involved, you need to ask for help, and Rita needs concentrated help. She could be an amazing horse if trained to reach her full potential. Good Luck whatever you decide to do and stay safe!
I missed you was silently worried but you came on at my 1 o’clock and yes I know absolutely nothing about horses but they are beautiful so you let me learn your way
Oh no Lester, I missed you more this morning!! Enjoy all your videos. I have faith in you and Jami making the best decisions for Rita. We only see a few minutes each day. You see so much more that occurs each day and can make the best choices.❤😊❤❤
I’m not so sure that having mares in heat is what may have caused the neighbors horses breaking into JL for a midnight rendezvous . Rita being there again may cause trouble with the neighbors boys ???? It is a shame because JL is perfect for the horses especially in the summer for grazing.
Lester i think prim is the one hollering at Rita first watch the videos close. Maybe I am wrong. But I watched each time Rita didn't start it. I would leave Rita there with the horses if you work with them hopefully she will be able to join them. Ask the experts I don't have a clue. It just makes since to keep them together. Do watch you feel is right you always are!!
I understand Jami not wanting to move Rita over to the JL with Dinky Darryl. Makes sense. Too much change. Keeping it simple is best. You just started this process. Too much change is not good. Slow down your expectations. ❤
Those stallions will find a way, bad idea moving them.
Lester, you said it yourself.......where there is a willy, there is a way and remember, voo got hurt when the neighbors came to call
I met Lester at Tractor Supply this morning in Livingston I just bought some property in the area and was so happy to see him buying his feed his first words were I'm not as dumb as I look on the channel he is a great story teller and I wish him and Jamie the best they are such good human beings for giving all the animals their best lives ❤️
This must have been such a warm meeting! Lester is definitely a storyteller as well as a wonderful human being as well as sweet Jami!! ❤ Lucky you!!
Lester, as long as Grandpa & Duke are living in the pasture next door, they WILL find a way to get to Rita when she comes in heat. Voodoo will have been severely injured for nothing, if you don't learn anything from that last Grandpa "visit".

Kinda agree with you Boys will be Boys
Honestly, I think Rita could and would learn to jump the fence eventually, so I agree with you.
Just a reminder..you have two intact stallions next door who will get to her at all costs when she's in season. They go through fences. JL ranch. They will hurt dinky to have her.
I don't think taking any horses or donkeys back to the JL Ranch is a good idea until the horses next door are properly watched over.
I think Jami is thinking about the wild in tacked boys next door at JL and the trouble they might cause?
I completely agree!
Not your decision so why say anythijg?....stfu!
Jami and Lester have said long term they would consider moving to the JL ranch and good horses can adapt to any property.
💯
No leave Rita where she is !
Agree, this could backfire on Lester, Lester needs to talk to Rick and Jami should talk to Courtney before they make a big move, IMO!!
Please don’t separate Rita from the herd.
That would be horrible 😢
Have you forgotten what happened to VooDoo? Those horses would hurt her too especially when she’s in “season”. It would also hurt Stormy if she’s gone. Plus Daryl was abused there by the other donkey and horses. It may bring back bad memories. You guys need to find a Horse Whisperer.
Oh! Gosh please don’t move Rita. The neighbors horses will get to her and will hurt the little donkey
I hate to see Rita moved farther away she needs to stay with the herd or close.
Distractions are one thing, but moving and changing routines can be very stressful to horses.
Those male neighbor horse would find a way to visit
That was my first thought, too, but Lester Assured us that the bullpen Is secure and nothing can get out or in, and therefore neighbouring horses will not be able to get in to Rita. This made me feel much better about her security and safety. 😅❤❤❤🙌🏻
@@rosemarygraham2815That fence may keep the cows but if Rita wants to jump or the neighbors want to, those long legs.
Oh I would worry about the males next door ..I think the boys would be a dangerous situation 😢 they got to your horses before and hurt voodoo …I agree with Jami it’s a big NO

Moving Rita to close proximity to stallions would not be a good idea.
Lester, bad idea - if something happened to you because something Rita did/does then you're alone and maybe won't be able to work the phone - if ya got to train her, do it among people specifically Jami or one of your horse helpers
Brilliant!😊
Leave Rita where she is
Ivy has forever been a pony but every time I see her as part of the herd it makes me smile❤
If you move Rita to the JL, what will y'all do to protect her from the neighbor's horses the other 20 hours a day when she's in-heat?
Yep, this is all totally normal. She will even probably go through it again with Storm to an extent. Nothing is fast with horses, it all takes time. Moving her often will be confusing for her. My honest opinion is that you would be better of keeping her at the LL property. She needs working daily yes, but also needs the normalcy and a herd, even from the other side of the fence.

That sounds and action is just simply how horses greet each other. All horses do it

Also, I have always said I respect your decision! If Rita going over to JL Ranch is what your heart leads you to do….I know she will be very loved, cared for and trained! Hugs Lester on making a decision.
The more the horses see each other the more they will get used to each other
I think this is a very good start Lester. Slow and steady wins the race.
Don’t move Rita. My belief “ bad idea”
JMO. I think it is not the time to move her. She is getting constant human attention where she is. She seems content where she is.
I think Primm can sense Rita’s energy and is letting her know that she will not put up with any of her shenanigans.
Lester it would be better to keep Rita where she is . Because of the other horses that belong to hour neighbors . They will find away to get to Rita . But it's your choice . Love watching your videos . I lived in New Caney for a few years but grew up in Houston . Now live in Ohio .
Taking Rita over to the JL would result in both her and Daryl getting serious injured or potentially one of the neighbours horses as mares have been known to kill stallions who try to get frisky when they are not in the mood. The neighbours horses will get in again unless you are going to build seven foot dmzs as you call them. if you want her to reintegrate into the herd keep doing the ground work and allowing her to stay acquainted through the fence for now,
I so agree! Please listen to most of these comments Lester!🤠💕🐴
I totally agree. Big part of training is teaching them to pay attention to YOU and ignore distractions.
It results in them trusting you more.
I think moving her around so much is gonna stress her and make her anxiety higher. Also you have the neighboring horses and they are not gelded which cause a big risk to be honest. When nature calls animals will do whatever it takes to "make it happen"
Rita Needs a leader hopefully prim will be that horse ❤ that will show her right from wrong, sorry the humans don't know how to do it 😉 it's great to hear your learning ❤❤
Believe me stallions can & will go over a 6 foot fence after a mare.
Where my mare & gelding where kept years ago a loose stud jumped a 6 foot, pole fence & proceeded to do his duties.
Please don't take anyone back to JL.
Love to all😊
@barbarajoseph944
Agree and I think Rita could and would learn to jump the fence easily.
Sweet Rita is like Hey I'm Rita, I'm a little spit fire but I would like to possible be your friend" lol I sure do love Rita and she will get better as time goes by.
Rita is a real Beauty, and is worth the time and energy ❤ She is very lucky to have you and Jamie, that’s for sure.
happy to hear your going to slowly get her back to her heard.
I smile everytime you mention the 'pony'.
Lester, its okay you didn't live this morning!! You had a lot going today!!! Have a blessed night.
Lester and Jami I think that you both need to discuss any plans to change Rita’s training with Courtney and Rick, and as for moving her to the JL Ranch once again, I think this needs to be discussed with Courtney and Rick as it has serious consequences for both Rita and the herd. ❤❤❤🙌🏻

Prim scared Rita right off her feet! Surprised her. She was snuffling Prim.

I still think she needs to go to Courtney for a few months. She is trained and has the knowledge to give her manners. She did wonders with Barbie.
That is normal horse communication , nothing bad about the sound s !
Rita didn't do anything. It was the other horse. Please don't blame Rita for everything.
Not becoming distracted is part of training
My only thought about taking Rita to J & L is she already seems to have a bit of an attitude towards Jami at times. If you take her away & she doesn't see Jami as much, it's going to make it worse.

Aren't you afraid about the horses next door. Because of last time with Voo ?
That noise is normal for horses
I would not take Rita to JL. Those boys next door will get to her. Or she will jump the fence to get to them. You asked, I said what I think.
Please don't move Rita she needs to stay where she is please
What she is doing is normal behavior.
No to J&L there's two intacted males over there that would break fences to get to her and probably seriously hurt dinky
Only YOU & JAMI knows what’s best for Rita. You have 2 great people to talk to about her. It’s gonna come together for her, she’s just a toddler
Please don't move Rita 😢
Lester I think you’re doing amazing with sweet Rita . Yeah your not a horse person and know little but what your doing is great ! As my nanna used to say Roma wasn’t built in a day ! So it will take time but you will get there and I love seeing your videos with her .
until neighbors horses are gelded then you can move Rita there.
Please don't move Rita. Too much change.

Poor baby, she wants to be with the herd so bad.
Leave Rita here. I am not an expert but, have had horses all my life. Get Courtney to help out. I have a mustang that is a sweetheart
People should never tell you about not training horses, everyone can learn,
everyone has to start somewhere!🤠
They need an expert to train her. They have done it themselves so far without success. I am afraid they are setting her up for failure, then will get rid of her.

Hi-ta-Hello lord Lester! Doing lots of little things to work with Rita will add up to big changes. You're doing a wonderfully loving job! Love you Lester! 💛
You have two Stallions over there Just saying
Breakfast at the fence is a great idea. You can graduate yo short pasture visits. No to JL. Stallions after a mare in heat are vicious. They will find a way. And you haven't fixed the fence yet from where they got in last time.
I love seeing your horses graze they are enjoying the day Lester
I kind of hope you re-think about this new move. The horses have been moved so much! Is it good to do that? What about the horses next door? Just concerned.
Lester, you are doing the very best for rita. Shes coming along just a little wild. Lol
Really missed y'all this morning God bless y'all love y'all I'm glad everything is going good
I have to agree that Rita needs that special attention to be able to learn how to be more gracious when she returns home…
I have absolutely 💯 no knowledge, but I have all the confidence in the world in you two. I love the shows! I live bi-curiously watching everyone's channels.😂❤ I could only wish rescuing, saving, and loving all the animals. Thank you for sharing.❤
Hi to Hello Lester may you and yours have a blessed weekend...
If you take her to the JL I would suggest to change your fence out to accommodate horses.
Maybe Rita needs the other horses- how can she know Prim if not allowed near her. Rita isn’t a bad girl.
Love Rita I am so happy to see her 😍 all the time ❤️
It's good to see you getting things done for the babies. Have a safe and blessed weekend.
Rita impressed me, it did not look like she started the "noise", she was just reacting to Prims snorts. And I with Jami on this one, she needs to stay near her herd so if you integrate them, it will not be so traumatic for Rita.
I think you’re doing great with Rita! I do think she needs to stay where she can see the day to day at the JL.
Try keeping your focus and not getting distracted yourself. Horses play off your feelings and emotions. If you aren’t distracted and can stay focused then she will focus on you and tune everything out!
I like you working with her
Good afternoon from Michigan ❤❤❤
I think it is wonderful that you are learning with Rita.
No worries Lester. Rita was just playing Rock Paper Scissors with her friends. 🤣❤️❤️
Lester with all due respect, Rita is a handful of a horse (I love her), and she is going to require an experienced person to train her and eventually ride her. It is very unlikely that Rita will ever be a safe riding horse for anyone less that an intermediate or experienced rider. Especially if she never gets any concentrated professional training. I know you love your animals but sometimes for the good of and safety of everyone, human and animal involved, you need to ask for help, and Rita needs concentrated help. She could be an amazing horse if trained to reach her full potential. Good Luck whatever you decide to do and stay safe!
I missed you was silently worried but you came on at my 1 o’clock and yes I know absolutely nothing about horses but they are beautiful so you let me learn your way
Oh no Lester, I missed you more this morning!! Enjoy all your videos. I have faith in you and Jami making the best decisions for Rita. We only see a few minutes each day. You see so much more that occurs each day and can make the best choices.❤😊❤❤
Hope Jamie feels better soon better❤
I’m not so sure that having mares in heat is what may have caused the neighbors horses breaking into JL for a midnight rendezvous . Rita being there again may cause trouble with the neighbors boys ???? It is a shame because JL is perfect for the horses especially in the summer for grazing.
Lester i think prim is the one hollering at Rita first watch the videos close. Maybe I am wrong. But I watched each time Rita didn't start it. I would leave Rita there with the horses if you work with them hopefully she will be able to join them. Ask the experts I don't have a clue. It just makes since to keep them together. Do watch you feel is right you always are!!
Hi to Hello Lester I just love watching you ❤
I have absolutely no advice on this I’ve never had a Rita lol but you guys will do what’s best so I trust whatever you decide. ❤❤❤
