Behold a Foal is Born!





The gestation period (that means, the length of time a mare carries the foal inside her body) is usually 11 to 12 months. The actual birth process takes only a short time—usually about 15 to 30 minutes. Normally a foal is born with its front feet first. One leg is extended; the other leg is slightly bent; and the head is thrust between the two legs. The newborn foal rests quietly for about 10 or 15 minutes…...its really amazing, watch it on this video!
