A mare can have about 1 foal a year for every year past maturity. Depending on the breed, horses mature at anywhere from 3-5 years old. Many people stop breeding horses when they get to be as old as 20 because it can be hard on the mare's body.

A mare can produce one foal a year from the time she is a year old up until the day she dies, typically at 25 to 30 years old, so an average of 25 to 30 foals per mare. However it is not good to breed a horse after it reaches 15 years old. There is also the possibility of the mare having twins (Very rare) which could increase the number of foals. A stallion can sire thousands of foals within his lifetime.

usually one, but occasionally twins. often, if a mare has twins, she will favor the firstborn. the second foal will have to be bottlefed or it may die because the mother will ignore it.
