Ask the Vet - When to wean a foal

In this excerpt from the November 2019 episode of Ask the Vet, Dr. Lydia Gray and SmartPak’s Dan answer a viewer’s question about when to wean a mini colt. They discuss why some foals may be ready to wean earlier than others, the differences between weaning timelines in wild versus domesticated horses, and various methods for separating the foal from the mare to help make the weaning process smoother.
