We just recently got a new horse Skipper and our other 2 horses, all geldings, are not really aggressive but not nice. Is it possible for all of them to become friends or not?

Skipper will find his place; it might take a few weeks or 6 months. As long as he's not in danger, he'll be fine. Horses do seem to band together in 2's IME, but I think the one left out changes from time to time.

I've always found geldings get along fine, but add one P***Y mare and things get all shook up!
