I was wandering thru a site on Facebook called Equine Calculator and came across these photos.
We're all so fascinated by our foals, their progress and development I thought you might all be as
awestruck as I've been.
I've stared at them all morning long, in sheer amazement.
The photos come from a book by Tim Flach called Equus.

Horses can be pregnant anywhere from 300 to 405 days.
Pregnancy usually lasts about 11 months, or 343 days. It can vary from horse to horse, and from year to year.
It is not uncommon for a mare to go 12 months.
Since much of the development of the fetus occurs in the last few months, vets make owners aware that premature
foals rarely live.
