Horse Breeding

A mare generally begins preparing to lactate a couple weeks before she gives birth to the foal. Swollen teats and a pale discharge from the udders is generally a sign that your pregnant mare is very close to foaling. Mares are able to provide their colts and fillies complete nutrition through their rich milk from the day the babies are born.

All horses no matter what breed they are require the same things food wise. They should have grass or hay available at all times. They will also require salt, water, and typically some vitamins and minerals which can be found in pelleted feeds.

feb, just when the day light hours increase to 12 hours of light, so you can just turn on the lights for 12 hours or more and cover them at night for 8 hours or so, this way they're gonna think it's breeding season cuz canaries decide when to breed during to the day light hours

some mares will mount other mares in season others will just also come into season. you may see extra urine output and also some squirting from the mare in season.

I think you mean how long should you wait to breed your mare again? A mare can be bred right back in her foal heat which occurs in the first month after giving birth. If you are referring to how long you need need to keep you mare in an isolated clean environment after giving birth, well, there is no such thing in the horse world. The best you can do is put down fresh straw daily or turn your mare and foal out on pasture.

Your horse will rub her rump against the fence or stall. She will try to cycle with your horses including fillies and mares! She will get very moody. She will have some vaginal discharge too.

Colts can begin to sire foals at a very early age - some around a year old. However, most are not fertile enough until age 2. Most breeders wait until a colt is 3 or 4 before breeding him so that he is mentally able to deal with the challenges of breeding.

i think 2 and 1/2

The normal gestation period for a Falabella is the same as other horse breeds, and averages between 320 - 360 days.

No. Bred mares are not receptive to the stallion because they are bred, not in heat.

A yearling filly can get pregnant, but the situation is usually a dangerous one for her and her foal. Not only will her nutrition be compromised, but she is likely not large enough to successfully foal a full term baby.

Most fillies are mature at 18 months so its unlikely it will happen, but people usually breed there fillies at 4, since it can affect there growth.

You can breed by getting a male and a female horse and then there will be on the top screen there will be a face in between two pics, let them play so that the face has a huge grin then love hearts will apere on the screen there you go!!!

HOPE THAT HELPS!!!!

horse giving birth

ok that's a dumb answer!

swelling leaking

I'm not sure of the answer to this question, but i have noticed lately that i am 'relactating'. My little one is 10.5 months old and i had to stop breastfeeding at 2 months due to a lactose intolerance problem and have been on formula ever since. Only in the past couple of days have i noticed a slight leak from my breasts?? Has this happened to anyone else??? Yes it has happened to me. Mine is a lot more strange than your current situation. I had my first child 10 yrs ago, my middle 7 yrs ago and my youngest 4 yrs ago. I have never stopped completely lactating. Also with this you might notice soreness around your cycle.

Everyone is different. Sometimes 6-12 weeks sometimes longer. I would not worry about it.

Progesterone is the hormone that maintains pregnancy in the cow. This is a sort of "barrier" that prohibits any hormonal reaction that would trigger the cow to begin parturition. If the progesterone "barrier" breaks down, estrogen levels increase promoting the consequential reaction to begin labour.

Progesterone is still an important hormone when the cow is not pregnant. Progesterone levels increase to allow the corpus luteum to degrade and the ovary to start development of new oocytes or ovums. Progesterone levels begin to increase soon after ovulation (which occurs after the standing heat period), and last for around 20 days until the ovum reaches maturity and estrogen levels increase again.

The first sign is usually a missed period. Other signs around the time of when your period is due is sore breasts, nausea, dizziness, headaches and bloating. Unfortunately these could also mean bad PMS, coming down with the flu or stress. If you are overdue with your period and have been experiencing some or all of these symptoms, you are pretty much sure to be pregnant. A home pregnancy test should show a positive when you are a couple of days overdue, so take one to be sure.

No. Progesterone is the primary ingredient in most birth control pills and there are

numerous ways to manufacture a synthetic version of it.

Pregnant mare's urine is used for menopausal wome

yes this is true because kentucky has alot of horses

A mule is the offspring resulting from the mating of a male donkey with a female horse, or mare. When the 'opposite' pairing of the parents' genders occurs; that is, the mating of a male horse, or stallion, with a female donkey, known as a "jenny" the resulting offspring is more appropriately referred to as a "hinny". The characteristics of a mule versus a hinny are indeed different, as is found in other crossbred animals where the parents' gender has such an effect with one notable example being the difference between a tigon, or a liger, each the offspring of a tiger and lion pair.

A dark brown horse. Possibly black. Possibly something with patches of the other color.

According to a nifty foal color calulator that you can find a link to in the related links, the foal has a 70% chance of being bay, 24% chance of being black and a 7% chance of being chestnut.
