Welcome to foaling and breeding season at Iron D! We're excited to address the influx of questions about foals, ranging from their feces to color predictions and the best times for imprinting and halter breaking. Throughout this month, we'll share tips based on our experiences and general guidance to help you recognize potential health issues in your foal. Remember, while our advice is helpful, always consult a veterinarian for any health concerns with your horses.
