The Effect Of Early Weaning On Growth And Development In Thoroughbred Foals

Thoroughbred foals raised in the United States typically remain with their dams for four to six months before they are weaned. Some breeders supplement nursing foals with additional feed while others feel it is better not to feed foals separately until they are weaned. If a foal is orphaned early in its life, then it is either raised on an artificial milk replacer or placed with a foster “nurse mare”.
