1) If she is a little moodier than usual.
2) If she is "wanting" your geldings or stallions (pushing against them)
3) If she is peeing a little bit but multiple times in a short period of time.
4) try breeding her with a stallion and if she kicks him, she isn't in heat, mares that aren't in season don't allow stallions to breed them!
Hope I answered your question!
a female horse is called a mare,they come into heat when 2 or 3 yrs. you will see them pee drops here and there and ull see there (u no wat) open and close. ull see them back up into male horses even neutered ones. see willstart to pee like that agian.
They will usually let you know. They mare will not reject the stallion's advances but be receptive by presenting her rump with her tail up. The stallion will then mount and breed the mare. It takes only a minute or two but the result is a beautiful new foal about 11 months later.
A mare in heat will be moody, irratated, and less sociable, the most distinct sign of a mares heat is a bloody discharge for her vagina noticable on her tail, hind, and back legs. During Heat mares will also "wink" their cervix noticably after urinating, some mares do this commonly though so know your horse
He can smell it.
A mare may become more tempermental when she is in heat, and possibly more agressive. Another characteristic that a mare is in heat is what is called flagging or winking. A mare may lift her tail in front of a male horse to get his attention. The most sure sign that a mare is in heat is her acceptance of being near a stallion. If a mare is in heat around a stallion she may squat and urinate showing she is ready to breed.
A mare goes into heat as part of her reproductive cycle. When a mare is in heat she can conceive a foal if she is bred. She cannot conceive if she is not in heat.
There is no discharge that I know of but a mare in heat will usually urinate when a stallion is presented. When a stallion is present, other signs of a mare in heat are: turning the hindquarters to the stallion, raising the tail, squatting and a flexing or winking of the labia. When a mare is NOT in heat and a stallion is present, she is totally disinterested and will flatten her ears, squeal, kick and sometimes bite and kick at the stallion.
This very much depends on the mare. Mares that are being used for performance are generally placed on progesterone based products to prevent them from cycling into heat during competition. The mare is allowed to enter heat between shows.
Mares come into a foal heat within a week or 10 days after foaling. In the wild, it's not uncommon for a stallion to breed with a mare in foal heat, however a mare may be reluctant because of the foal's presence. She might not show any signs of heat either.

They can, but usually not. Horses will mostly only mate once the mare is in heat.

The first heat that occurs a few days after birth is called a Foal Heat. Breeding a mare on a foal heat is possible, but sometimes not the best thing for the mare. As a result many breeders do not breed on foal heat. Just because you can do something, doesn't mean you should.
In heat or in estrus.
it means the mare is in a bad mood, typically brought on by hormones during the heat cycle.
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.
yes they will start pacing
CALL A DOCTORE!!!!!! that might be serious. That or look it up on line. Blood isn't good. But the white creamy gunk could be your mare is in heat.
