What does a foal look like during stages of pregnancy?

During the early stages of pregnancy, a foal is not yet visible, as it develops within the mare's uterus. As the pregnancy progresses, typically around the fifth month, the foal begins to take shape, with the growth of its limbs and body becoming more pronounced. By the seventh month, the foal is more recognizable, with defined features and movements. Near the end of the pregnancy, the foal is fully developed and ready for birth, usually weighing around 100-150 pounds at delivery.
