Description
Miniature Foaling This video provides the critical "need to know" information for any mini owner preparing for their first foal. Care of the pregnant mare, including pasture and turnout, the foaling stall, and familiarization with the mare's anatomy, is covered in detail. The impending signs of delivery are demonstrated with tips on when to watch for them. A 5-week countdown to delivery culminates in a "real time" delivery, "up close and personal," followed by an in-depth review of each stage. Follow-up on the birth include the importance of bonding, the foal's struggle to stand and nurse, and the mare's delivery of the afterbirth. The video concludes with "Red Alert" signs and what actions to take: premature separation of the placenta, abnormal presentation, and post-delivery foal problems. The video is packaged with the popular book, So, You're Expecting a Foal! (1999), which provides very detailed important information on subjects that are not easily shown on video.
