Hi list, First of all I do feel with sarah and her family. May the good moments you had with here be always in your minds. About weaning, As Askeladden is our first foal, we do not have the experience. We will keep him at home, but one day he has to become independant from his mother and I will go back driving her as well so....... There are always many people with good advice, but when you hear 10 friends , you have 10 different ideas. We figured out what would be the best for us. As we don't have that much space to separate them we decided to board him for a few weeks. My vet has +/- 10 foals to wean within this month and he offered me to take care of Askeladden. He will be together with those other little fellows so he won't be alone. How will the mare react (usually) when you take her baby away like that????????????? Please give me some advise about taking care of my litle mama horse Griet from Ieper
