Feeding and Management of Weanling Horses for Healthy Skeletal Development PDF (760KB)

Weaning is a critical period for the foal. It is growing rapidly and its skeletal system, which includes bones, cartilage, tendons, and ligaments, is still developing. For the weanling to reach its full potential as an adult, you must manage its total nutritional environment.
