Every mare is different some can have foals well into their twenties, other mares will have problems foaling even as 12 years olds.

In general, a normal mare, with no abnormal reproductive issues can easily have foals until she is 18.

Realize that mares that have not foaled previously may not be reproductively

sound if bred late in life (16+) and that the general school of thought is that

older mares remain reproductively sound longer if they remain pregnant year in year out.
