I just bought a 9 year old gelding,and have been doctoring yearlins off him,and have caught 4 cows with him,but monday mornin when i hopped on him he went nuts pitching all over the place. I didnt come off but it wasnt the prettiest bronc ride you ever saw.I was very puzzled as to why after having him for three weeks,he all of the sudden wanted to pitch.He's very gentle and well manerd.So I figured yesterday because i had nothing better to do i was gonna spend some time with him.Well i went to brushing his back with a soft brush,and he turned his head to me and nibbled my arm,so i popped him in the nose.Well i finally figured out that his back was itching or hurting him to the point of insanity.So today im going to wash him with head and shoulders to try to get rid of all the dry skin.If theres anything else i should know,any help is appreciated.
