Is Your Mama a Mare?

For many horse owners, the idea of breeding a horse seems magnificent at first. It can seem like such a great idea to produce a perfect baby out of your loving mare. What most people don't realize is that there is a lot of thought that should be put into breeding your mare. There should be a lot of thought put into breeding in general such as what kind of a horse would you like to produce, if you are going to keep the baby or sell the baby, is the mare fit to have a foal and many other things that contribute to bringing a foal into this world.

Over the next 2 weeks I will be publishing posts that are a collaboration of thoughts, ideas and tips that may help you with the decision on weather to breed your horse or not. They will include posts on how to care for your pregnant mare and how to safely deliver a foal. As a horse owner, I believe it is important to be well educated on this topic so you can be assured your mare and foal will make it through the birthing process!
