If it is a young horse, they will lose baby teeth at about 2-3 years of age and the adult teeth will replace them. If it is an old horse, the teeth are much looser and the gums are not as strong, so an aging horse may start to lose teeth at anywhere from 15-30 years of age. In this case, a change of diet needs to be made. Feed your senior horse softer foods and grains that do not need a lot of chewing.
Around three years of age is when you can expect him or her to start losing his/her front teeth.
Yes, of course! dont worry if your horse lost their teeth :)
Horses have all adult teeth by the age of 5.
um 155
* Well, not ALL horses go blind, lose their teeth, and get weakened bones. That happens to some horses, depending on their "careers". One way you can tell a horses age, is by looking at their front 12 teeth.These teeth are called incisors. As horses age, their incisors sort of cave in. Below I have added a diagram, to give you an idea: *A horse changes when it ages by: going blind, loosing their teeth, and weekining bones.
The average age that a child looses his central incisors is 6 years old.

You can tell a horses age by it's teeth example a young horse/pony would have small teeth and a older Horse/pony would have longer teeth :)
It all depends. I am not a pro and im not 11 anymore im 13, at 11 i lost my 2 front teeth, <- that explains it! sometimes u can lose many other ones before ur 2 front teeth. This all decides on what ur body thinks what is right for you! so dont think this is true but i lose my 2 front teeth for the first time at 11, and i had a friend who is 11 and lost all the bottom teeth and are adult teeth now. Hope you like my answer!
you can tell a horses age by its teeth
It's teeth, they change with age, more accurate would be registration papers, as teeth aging after the horse is more than 20 gets pretty iffy.
No, you can tell a horses age by it's teeth.
dentists and vets can tell a horses age by its teeth
Because you can tella horses age roughly from its teeth and you may lie and say its age is something when acually its something else so the buyer will look at its teeth to check
