Mares in foal need to have a higher protein content in their feed compared to a non-pregnant mare especially the last 3 months when a foal does the greatest amount of growing. A protein level near 16% and a good vitamin mineral mix with high vit D and calcium should be fed the last 3 months. A mare that is working will need more calories and protein earlier than one that isn't being worked.
