I got one mine mule that was 2 years old. You could herd him up into a barn and catch him, he would turn his butt toward you but not kick. When you got him haltered you could walk him around and do a few things. Well, i bought a 3 year old little molly mule. She was handled by a little girl. I thought maybe that would make him easier and more trustworthy. She humped up at me one day while I was feeding her, like she was going to kick me and I tossed the feed scoop at her. She has been afraid of me since then. I have tried everything. My grandaughter can handle her and my daughter can rub her head, but not me.
What can I do. They both need trimming and I can't catch them. If I get them into the barn they freak out. I don't want them to get hurt. They will take treats out of my hands but the molly won't let me touch her. She will follow me all over the pasture and is so curious about everything I do, just no touching. Need expert advice. I have hurt my back a week ago and can't do much pulling on either of them.
