Frequent nosebleeds in children. It is common for children to get nosebleeds. Most nosebleeds get better on their own and are not a cause for concern. In rare cases, a nosebleed may be a symptom of a more serious problem, such as an injury to the head.
Most mares will begin to bag up in the last month to month and a half of gestation. This means that her udder will begin to swell. Many mares will resist attempts to touch their udders or nipples, which can interfere with the foal s nursing attempts.
Since income is generated from selling offspring, yearly foal production is critical to offset maintenance and breeding expenses incurred by the mare owner. With an average gestational length of 333 to 345 days, mares must become pregnant within one month post partum to continue producing foals each year. Mating mares on the first postpartum estrus is one method used to improve the chance of maintaining yearly foal production.
