This occurs when progesterone levels drop and oxytocin levels increase. The mare
is close to foaling or close to a late term abortion depending on the reason for the
hormone changes.
Instances of prolonged dripping or squirting of milk can result in colostrum loss and
owners should attempt to collect and refridgerate if possible...or locate an additional
source of colostrum for the foal if there is a significant loss. (system logged me off mid entry)
Aggressive behavior like biting and kicking can be a sign of discomfort or pain, but it does not necessarily mean that the mare is pregnant. It's important to have a veterinarian examine the mare to rule out any medical issues or evaluate her reproductive status. If she is pregnant, behavior changes could be due to hormonal fluctuations or physical discomfort associated with the pregnancy.
Well if the mare is pregnant it means she is getting very close to foaling, especially if they are dripping milk/colostrum. If however the mare is swollen without being pregnant it can mean she has an infection and might need a course of antibiotics to clear it up and make her more comfortable.

basicly you can ride your mare up to 6 monthsAnswerIt all comes down to the mare. Some mares can be ridden up to a week before the birth, and I mean hard riding, as in still doing reining work like spins, sliding stops and flying lead changes. Other mares will be put out to pasture at 5 months. Just watch your mare. If she ever starts acting different, then stop riding her, or go easier on her. You should still excercise her though, especially if she stays in a stall. Lunge her in large circles( small ones put too much stress on joints), lead her around, and some light bareback rding at a walk is good. Just like pregnant humans should keep excercising throughout their pregnancy, so should horses.
If a mare has foaled before, being around other pregnant mares can sometimes bring on lactation.My freinds horse has this problem but the vet said it was nothing to worry about, she is not in with other horses so im not sure why it happens.Our mare had three foals by the time she was 4 yrs. old. The previous owner was not a very good horse person. When we bought her, #3 foal was by her side. This mare had milk until the day she died at age 29.

The answer will depend on what you mean. If you mean an exact name, there is no way to answer that without knowing the horse. If you are asking if a brown and white pinto mare is called something specific, then no, she would still be a mare.
