🧬 Choosing the Right Pair
Good breeding starts with good pairing choices. Before breeding, think about:
- The parents' stats
- The traits you want in the foal
- Breed and bloodline goals
- Fertility and long-term breeding plans
Breeding is not just about producing foals quickly. It is also about building horses with purpose, whether that means better lines, stronger performance traits, or a breeding program you are proud of. It is important to get your horses genetic tested for responsible breeding.Â
Pregnancy
Once breeding is successful, the mare becomes pregnant and the pregnancy begins immediately.
Pregnancies also have:
- A chance of miscarriage
- A chance of twins
Pregnant mares can recieve an ultrasound via Vet to recieve the estimated due date. If a mare goes past her estimated due date, the mare can have a c-section done.Â
