Colostrum is typically absorbed by a foal within the first 12 to 24 hours after birth. The foal's ability to absorb immunoglobulins from colostrum is highest during the first few hours of life, with significant absorption decreasing rapidly after 6 hours. It's crucial for foals to receive adequate colostrum promptly to ensure they obtain the necessary antibodies for immunity.
