Horse Breeding

The pregnant mare horse will probably lie down though it may stand.

The contractions will come. These can be painful.

If the horse has given birth before it will be easier, but if this is her first time it might prove to be harder.

She will start to push the foal out with the contractions. Eventually if all goes well she will give birth to a healthy foal.

If she is having noticeable trouble, CALL A VET. In fact, you should always have a vet on the scene once the mare starts pushing.

If you reach a hand in the mare's rear end and feel hooves, like, RIGHT THERE, than that's a breech birth. That is an emergency, always have a vet. If you feel the foal's head when you reach in, all is probably well.

Now, understand that the pregnant mare is probably in pain. Soothe her. Comfort her. Pet and stroke her. Be prepared for a long wait until the foal is born.

I repeat, always always always have a professional veterinarian on hand.

They are called foals.

The gray gene causes color changes with chestnut foals that carry the gray allele often darkening some hair as other hair turns white.

Dark bay, black or brown horses don't seen to have much of a pigment shift in the colored portion of their hair coat.

No, you cannot use la-200 in horses, it is for cattle. If your horse is sick or injured you should contact a equine veterinarian as soon as possible and have them prescribe an appropriate medication.

When a mare is ready for season, she is considered "in heat" or "in oestrous." A way you can test if your mare is in season is to get a male horse (a stallion is preferable over a gelding) and bring him near the mare. If she lays her ears back and kicks at him, she is NOT in season. If she relaxes, spreads her back legs a little, and lowers her butt, (aka accepting the stallion), she is in season.

Side note: Just because a mare is in season DOES NOT mean that she needs to be bred.

It means the horse has tied for first place with another horse in a race.

It's not uncommon for one twin to be larger than the other twin in utero. The most likely cause of this is just that one twin is consuming more of the food and nutrition that the mother passes down to the babies. You could have one little piggy who's eating the other one's food. Since he is getting more food and nutrition that the other, he will be slightly larger, or heavier. There is not much concern over this as long as you are consuming enough food to feed them both. If the smaller one doesn't want all of his meal, then the larger one will take it.

Another cause could be the position of the babies. One baby may have more room to grow while the other one might be a little constricted. Again, nothing major to be concerned.

While it is common that one twin is smaller in development than the other, your doctor will still want to keep a check up on both of them to make sure the smaller one does grow at its own rate; and that the larger one doesn't get too large before delivery.

All foals will be either chestnut, cremello or palomino.

None of the foals from this mating could be bay, black, buckskin, perlino because

both parents are homozygous ee at the extension site.

During a mare's heat cycle there is a small window of time (about 3 days) when the horse should be bred. If she does not conceive within this time frame she will have another cycle in about 7 to 10 days. These times can vary from horse to horse. The best (and most expensive) way is to have the vet do an ultrasound everyday and he can see the progress the egg is making and when the best time to breed the mare.

A breeding stable is most commonly called a "breeding farm". The larger breeding farms will have several different stallions standing at stud, many barns for the mares that come to be bred and a lot of times a full-time vet to help with the breeding. There is also a building called a "breeding shed" where the actual breeding of the horses takes place.

Yes. Different cloths are made of different materials - and different materials have different heat capacities and thermal conductivities.

Most mares show few physical signs of pregnancy until late in the process. Any early detection of pregnancy necessitates the skills of a veterinarian to be certain that the insemination took hold.

One of the keys to establishing pregnancy early on for your mare is to know when she was bred. If you monitored the breeding and made note of when it took place, you will have a better idea of when certain tests can be performed to check for pregnancy.

Not specifically...but the question is how and why will it be used?

1. Food Supplement...

2. Facial Cream...

3. Introduction into orifices where semen was designed to go...

There are so many products better designed than the use of

raw semen (of any origin) or even processed in some manner and probably

much better researched.

Finally, introduction of foreign proteins and fluids to certain parts of

human anatomy can cause an allergic response.

No, mules are generally infertile. They have 63 chromosomes, unlike a horse which has 64 and a donkey which has 62.

Horses give birth to live, fully developed young so the correct term is gestation or pregnancy. The gestation (pregnancy) of a horse is usually about 340 days. The range for full term pregnancy is 320 to 365 days.

The term incubation is used mostly for birds and reptiles who lay eggs.

Same age as any horse. It's safest to breed equines at age four, after they've fully developed. I've heard of people breeding fillies as young as two. This is dangerous because the horse is not fully developed and may be irrevocably damaged in the back and hips by the weight of the foal.
