What to expect in weaning season

Aside from the lactating mare, the growing foal is the most demanding life stage in terms of nutrition. After foaling, the mare’s milk is perfect nutrition for the new foal that provides energy, protein and other essential nutrients to support healthy growth and development. After about two to three months, milk production begins to taper and additional nutrients will be needed by the foal to support his rapidly growing body. Young, growing horses seem to be able to adapt to a wide variety of nutritional management systems. The keys to any feeding program for developing horses is the same: to provide adequate, balanced nutrients and nurture a moderate, even rate of growth.

As is true for all mammals, the importance of the mother’s milk from birth through weaning is indisputable. While still nursing, a foal will relatively quickly take an interest in sampling forage. This early testing of forage will kick-start the development

An easy method to determine the IgG in the blood of newborn foals. The test strips are interpreted using the VMRD reader and provide a reliable, objective value. This data can be used to determine whether therapy should be initiated to provide the foal with sufficient antibodies. 

IgG in colostrum

The plasma cells in the mammary glands produce immunoglobulins that are absorbed by the foal from the colostrum. The amount of immunoglobulins ingested by the foal depends on the level of immunoglobulins in the colostrum, the amount of colostrum produced by the mare, the amount of colostrum the foal drinks in the first 24 hours and the foal's absorption of IgG from the colostrum. If any of these factors are insufficient, the foal will not receive enough immunoglobulins and this can have major consequences for the health of the foal. In up to 25% of foals,
