This morning we found Nika's 5 week old foal lying next to the fence with a
broken neck. It looks as if maybe he ran, hit a slick spot and fell. We are
heart broken and so is she. But I need advice on the best way to handle Nika's
milk. Is it best to let it dry up naturally or should I milk off a little to
relieve the pressure? I have heard both ways, but want to hear from someone
who has tried it. this is really different from weaning a foal because at 5
weeks she was just hitting the peak of milk production.
