Foals typically begin to wean from suckling around 4 to 6 months of age, although some may continue to nurse occasionally until they are around 8 months old. Weaning is often a gradual process, as foals start to eat solid food and rely less on their mother's milk. By the time they are 6 to 12 months old, most foals have fully transitioned to a diet of grass and grain. It's important for the weaning process to be managed carefully to ensure the health and well-being of both the foal and the mare.
Foals typically stop suckling from their mother at around 4-6 months of age. This timing can vary depending on the individual foal and mare.

Typically, you would wean your foal at approximately 6 months of age. Foals do not need to be suckling on the dam too far beyond that age. Most of the time foals are weaned so the mare can return to a more relaxed life. Nursing a foal is a drain on the mare, lactating mares require more nutrition. People often wean foals so the dam can return to her normal job (showing, racing, trail riding)
