I was new to breeding last year and learnt about foaling from breeder friends, but am now concerened as no one at all ever seems to mention giving the mare a painkiller after she has given birth.
Now all you guys seem to have painkiller in your foaling kit, so I'm wondering what I should give my mares here in the UK. I always have a box of Bute on hand for my big horse, but not sure I can give this to a mare with a foal.
Anyone know of something suitable that I can put in my kit and dosage levels etc? I'd hate to think my poor little mares were in pain through being sore etc.
