Stallions

A stallion is an adult male horse that has not been castrated, meaning it retains its reproductive organs. They are often used for breeding due to their ability to sire offspring. Stallions tend to be more aggressive and energetic than mares (female horses) or geldings (castrated males), which can make handling them more challenging. They possess strong physical traits and high stamina. Their temperament varies, but they generally require experienced management. In breeding programs, stallions are carefully selected and trained to ensure they produce healthy, desirable foals.
