How does birth in mares?
Parturition in mares occurs relatively quickly, most often at night. Signs of impending birth in mares are enlargement of the udder and the loosening of pelvic ligaments in which the root of the tail looks like a stilted. One or two days before ozhrebvaneto on teats begin to appear colorless liquid droplets initially and immediately before ozhrebvaneto - colostrum. Very often the day of ozhrebvaneto mare refuses to eat, often sits and looks at his belly. It is interesting to know that the mares are able to keep the process of giving birth to several hours at various confounding factors (mostly noise or unusual situation). Therefore it is desirable to move to another area or in another room just before ozhrebvaneto. Is undesirable and the presence of many people during this process. It is usually not necessary to assist in the birth unless complications occur. If necessary you must seek competent veterinary care.

Normal foals are born, posing with the forelimbs and head resting on them. However, to properly adopt and rear performance (with the hind legs forward). It must be pierced appearing at the beginning of the birth time membranes, as this can cause difficulties at birth. Birth normally lasts 30-40 minutes. Immediately after birth, usually within 2 hours, discard the placenta (afterbirth).

If membranes is on the horse, removed, umbilical cord bind off 4-5 inches from the abdomen and is cut to 2 inches below the Binding. Nose, mouth and ears are cleaned of mucus. Newborn should be immediately dried and allowed the mare to lick it. About half to one hour after ozhrebvaneto foal begins to make attempts to stand. Once successful, it instinctively begins to seek the udder of the mare. If it fails only to orient, to help him. It is very important to zabozae foal from the first milk (colostrum), which contain large amounts of antibodies needed to build immunity. If it can not happen or does not wish to zabozae to 2 hours after birth, should help him or milked colostrum and give it a bottle with a bottle.
