Nothing is quite as unnerving as waiting for a mare to foal particularly if she is late. While waiting this article will provide you with something to study so you can be prepared. This article discusses predicting birth, a step by step description of the birthing process with illustrations and early signs of problems. Of course everything is going to go fine but just in case we have included links to related information on birthing problems and when everything turns out OK, post-foaling care.
