Usually, the gestation of a horse is 340 days. The actual gestation time is up to nature and the individual mare. I've seen cases where a mare had a gestation period less than 300 days pregnant, and one mare went up to 350 days. Small horses like Falabellas and Shetlands actually are pregnant for 12 or 13 months.
