Kynedi's Mom
Well-Known Member
Just wanting options on when I can let my ne foal out to pasture, we also have an older QH mare, she has foaled several times & baby's mom is really protective. So I'm not too worried, I thought about letting mom & baby out for a while during the afternoon so that I can see how they interact with our QH mare, then seeing what I think would be the best idea. The way that our current situation is, ( we only had QH & mini mare & now new baby colt) We only have one trough at the moment, and one fenced grazing area. "Pistol" (colt) was one week old this Tuesday, in your opinion is this too soon. I have been feeding mom 2-3 x daily & making sure that she has plenty of hay, but I think that they would much rather be out of their stall & turn out pen. There stall in approx. 10x12 & open to a pen that is probably 30x15. What do you guys think ?
