A stallion will mate with as many mare's as are available.
When a stallion is protective of a mare, it usually means that he considers her one of his mares - a member of his personal herd.
A mare that is put in with a stallion can become pregnant almost as soon as she goes into heat, which can add to the amount of unwanted horses. The mare could also hurt the stallion, if the stallion were to try and breed her when she was not ready she could kick one or more of his legs and break them. However mares and stallions will usually get along in pasture breeding situations.
Every breed comes in mare and stallion, so it just depends on which one you have. Or just /check/. :)
Well for a male horse that has not been castrated (fixed) they would be called stallions, if they were castrated they would be called geldings.A mare is a female horse aged five or older (some say three or older). The male counterpart is stallion or gelding. Most male horses are gelded as yearlings to prevent them from breeding and from developing aggressive traits.A younger mare is called a filly. The male counterpart is a colt.A mare is a female horse, and a stallion is a male horse.a mare is a female horse and a male one is a stallion
You can buy one from the auctions or the private sales. Or you can breed a mare and hope that the foal turns out to be a colt that will grow up to be a stallion.
Get a male brumby (stallion) and a female brumby (mare), and breed them! Or you could one one in the sales.
A mare comes into season approximately once a month. This is the time when she is willing to breed and able to become pregnant. A Stud or Stallion will always be more than happy to breed her during this time. So yes ... horses can be made to mate.
A horse under the age of one is called a foal. Once it is one year old, it is called a yearling.
Stud stallions will follow mares around for multiple reasons.1. The mare is in heat: If the mare is in heat the stallion will follow her in an attempt to mount and breed her.2. the mare may be the one in charge and is leading the stallion around, most mares tend to be the leaders of a herd and so stallions and foals will follow them.3. Attachment: The stallion may be buddy sour and does not want to be left alone.
Assuming you are taking about the lead horse in a herd, if it's a female it is called a lead mare or boss mare, if it is a male it is called the stallion since there is only one mature stallion (fertile male horse) in a herd of horses.
If you are to "hand" breed a mare and a stallion it is much safer and the situation is controlled versus if the mare and stallion are alone together in a pasture either one of them could get hurt very seriously either from biting or kicking.
Yes, it is possible for a chestnut Arabian mare bred to a black Arabian stallion to produce a grey foal. If either the mare or stallion carry the gene for greying, there is a chance that the foal may inherit this gene and develop a grey coat color as it matures.
