Squirrel Lodge Stud
The newborn foal will weigh approximately 10% of its mature weight. At the end of its first year, if well nourished, it will have grown to approximately 60% of adult weight, 80 - 90% of adult height and achieved 95% of adult bone growth. The main objective when rearing a foal, whether itโs a pony or a potential racehorse, is to produce a sound, healthy athlete.
โฆ It is a good idea to introduce a small amount of feed at the earliest opportunity, usually at around two weeks of age. This way the foal will become familiar with eating from a bucket and this will ensure its micronutrient intake is maintained.
โฆ Mars and foals on spring and summer pasture will gain a significant amount of their protein and energy requirements from grass however, they will need an extra supply of vitamins, minerals and amino acids that can be provided by๐ฆ๐ฃ๐๐๐๐๐ฅ๐ฆโข ๐๐ฟ๐ผ ๐กโ ๐ช๐ถ๐ปโข ๐๐ฎ๐น๐ฎ๐ป๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ฟ
โฆ Aim for a feed intake which supports steady growth as growth spurts can increase the risk of growth problems.
โฆ Monitor the foalโs growth to ensure an even growth curve, by weighing fortnightly, measuring at the withers and condition scoring on a regular basis.
โฆ All SPILLERSโข Stud feeds have been carefully formulated with a balanced supply of chelated trace elements, vitamins and minerals, quality protein and live yeast to support the growing foal at every critical stage of itโs growth.
