After a mare has foaled, she should be fed a high-quality diet that includes rich forage, such as alfalfa hay, to provide essential nutrients for milk production. Additionally, a balanced commercial grain or concentrate formulated for lactating mares can help meet her increased energy and protein needs. It's also important to ensure she has access to fresh water and mineral supplements, particularly calcium and phosphorus, to support her recovery and lactation. Always consult a veterinarian or equine nutritionist for personalized feeding recommendations.
