∙ 14y agoWhen initial vaccinations are given to foals depends on the vaccination history of the mare, the risk of exposure to specific diseases and the specific type of vaccine you are talking about. Foals of unvaccinated mares are generally started on vaccines between 3-5 months of age. Foals of vaccinated mares are generally started on vaccinations around 6 months of age. But again, the specific risks in an area should be taken into consideration. Your veterinarian should always be consulted to plan an appropriate vaccination regimen.
