A horse can be any age when their body stops producing the needs to carry a foal. You can have your vet come out and look at your mare and see if she is still able to carry. Many vets don't take recip (mares who carry the foal for other horses) mares over the age of 10 only so they can be sure that the foal will have an equal chance of living. And so they can know that the mare will cycle properly to carry the baby all the way to birth. I have a 22 yr. old mare that we are taking embryos out of and she is still producing beautiful babies and she doesn't have to carry the extra weight of a baby anymore because the recip mare does it for her. I hope that that helps you get a better idea.
