Some people think a baby horse is called a pony. In fact, a baby horse is called a foal. A foal is a horse that is younger than one year old. A pony can be any age! Ponies have short legs and wider bodies than full-sized horses. Ponies often have thicker manes too! People can ride ponies, just like they can ride full-sized horses.
A normal horse birth will take 15 to 45 minutes. Baby horses are normally born front feet first with the head between the legs. If part of the foal is showing and it is not positioned front feet first, call a veterinarian immediately.aking care of a pregnant horse until the mare gives birth is crucial, and will span eleven months. Once the mare is ready to give birth, it is then essential to know how a newborn foal should behave and develop. Newborn baby horses are fragile for the first few hours, and its important to know how to care for a foal.
