No, it just means the mare isn't pregnant.
It means that she is giving birth to a foal, or baby horse.
it means the mare is pregnant
It means that if your mare does not get in foal or does not carry the foal to full term, then you don't get your money back for the stud fee.
If a foal dies inside the mare, there is a possibility that the mare may develop complications such as infection or inflammation, but it does not necessarily mean the mare will die. It is important to seek veterinary assistance quickly to address any concerns and ensure the mare's health and well-being.
The first heat that occurs a few days after birth is called a Foal Heat. Breeding a mare on a foal heat is possible, but sometimes not the best thing for the mare. As a result many breeders do not breed on foal heat. Just because you can do something, doesn't mean you should.
Filly: A female horse aged 5 years old or younger. Colt: A male horse aged 5 years old or younger.
If I am correct, it means once you breed your mare tosomeone elses stud they say that if your mare doesn't have the foal (miscarriages or something) that you don't have to pay the fee for breeding to the stud.
If you mean buy a foal, you can buy a weanling at any breeder. If you mean have your own foal, and you do not have a stallion, you can buy a stud service. It is quite easy. You bring your mare to the stallions farm, and he will breed her and you pick your mare up, and 11 months of so later, you have a foal. Usually it is a couple hundred dollars less then buying the horse, so it is a good deal.
a colt is a baby boy (foal) under the age of 2 a filly is a female foal under the age of 4 a gelding is a castrated male horse a stallion is a male horse a mare is a female horse foal - a baby horse
Sometimes. The mare may just genetically have too small of a uterus or the foal was just too large, maybe contributed by the mare or stallion. She could now have scar tissue from the hard birth with may mean she may not take with another breeding, she just may not settle the embryo. I would try it again, maybe with a smaller stallion though. Just remember she may not settle. Our paint mare had scar tissue from a bad birth, vet said she'd never have a foal again even with a uterus flush. But low and behold, 3 years ago she jumped the fence in with the neighbors stallion and SUPRISE! A beautiful little stud colt. :) So you just never know :) GOod luck with your mare on whatever you decide!
if you own the mare, you keep the mare and the foal. if you own the stallion, you get the money from the breeding.
it means they can no longer mate with a mare to make a foal it is called gelding and can improve the tempermant of the horse!
