Yes, the date a horse was foaled is the date he was born. Foaling just means giving birth, so if the date is in the future or the very recent past (and doesn't make sense by looking at the horses' teeth) and the horse concerned is a mare, it could be the day she gave birth (or is due to give birth), not the day she was born.

How do I Calculate mare's foaling date?

To calculate a mare's estimated foaling date, you can use the mare's last breeding date as a reference point. A mare typically has a gestation period of around 11 months (340 days), so you can add this to the last breeding date to estimate the foaling date. It's also a good practice to have a veterinarian confirm the pregnancy and monitor the mare's progress.


What do you need when the horse is having its foaling?

When a horse is having its foaling, you will need a clean and safe foaling area, clean towels or rags to help dry the foal, iodine or disinfectant for the foal's navel, a flashlight for visibility, and a contact number for a veterinarian in case of any complications. It's important to observe from a distance and avoid interfering unless necessary.


How long does foaling last?

From entering the first stage of foaling, to the time that the foal comes out should not be longer than 4 hours.The foal should come out less than an hour after the second stage of parturition begins. The second stage begins after the rupture of the membranes (when the fluid comes out) - and abdominal straining will begin.If a foal takes longer than 1 hour to come out after the second stage has begun, it has a much lower chance of survival.1 hour after birth the foal should be standing, 2 hours after birth it should be suckling and 3 hours after birth the mare should have passed the placenta.
