I am a new shetland pony owner and we have two mares.
One just had a colt and one is pregnant.
The colt was born last Friday night in between all the storms..
I put iodine on his umbilical stump and gave him a tetanus shot per my vet's instructions.
What do I need to do next?
Hello,
I am a new shetland pony owner and have two mares.
One just foaled last Friday and one is going to foal within the next few months.
The person I bought them from was feeding them 10% sweet feed and minerals.
Is there anything else I need to feed them or something better?
Also what...
That is exactly how it happened for us this past Friday!:D
We went to feed and water our two mares and up pops a new foal that was resting on the ground!
It is our first experience with foaling too and I was so thankful everything went so smoothly.
I will tell you that you need to put iodine...
