Yes...people do it all the time with no adverse effects to the mare or foal.
A foal typically stands within 1-2 hours after birth, but it can vary depending on the individual foal and circumstances. It's important for the foal to stand and nurse soon after birth to receive vital colostrum from the mare.
The word to fill in the blank is "gosling". A mare gives birth to a foal, similarly a goose gives birth to a gosling.
Not without a very careful and costly ultrasound examination.

The act of a horse giving birth is called foaling. It typically occurs after a gestation period of around 11 months. During foaling, the mare will undergo labor and deliver the foal, usually within 30 minutes to an hour.
Yes, a foal can die before birth.

To Foal~
Well the mother will give birth and will lay down on the ground for a while, then their foal will try and stand up. After a few minutes the mother will get up and lick her foal, then you just wait and watch the foal grow! :) Sunny Erics Horse vet specialist.
no.....thats disgusting.
do you mean the foal or the dam? usually the foal would try to stand up, snapping the imbilicall cord, leaving the foal non-attached to his/her mother. the mother would then lick her foal dry
a mare gives birth to the foal eleven months after conception
