My mare was fine at feeding time last night and down at feeding time this morning. My vet had idea's and we tried several things but she went down hill and died this morning at 10:30. So anyway, she left behind a 2.5 month old filly. I could bring her in and put her in a stall or...I can leave her with the herd. She is the only baby out there right now. But she has always eaten pellets and hay with all of the mares (they all let her except for one mare), not just her dam. I thought it might be best, less stress for her to just leave her there, but I am just not sure....I have never done this before. I have never been in this situation before. We watched her tonight and she ate her pellets right up, then went and ate with another mare. Just checked on her and she was eating hay with yet another mare. So if it were you, would you leave her where she seems to be doing well or separate her?
