A cribber is a horse who chews wood and/or bites it and sucks air (also called a windsucker) Europeans believe that mares can pass this onto her foals so they generally will not buy a cribber.

Several years ago, I worked this sale and some guy screamed at me for telling people who were looking at his horse that she was a cribber (you have to disclose this) because he thought I was trying to keep her from being sold. Obviously as you can see, the sale makes it well known who is a cribber and who is not.
