The first months of the foal
Wednesday 26 May 2021If, for some reason, the foal cannot be with the mother, we will need to find a formula that can replace breast milk as well as possible.
If there have been no problems and the foal and the mare are together during the first months of the foal's life, everything is easier: the foal has guaranteed food and will learn everything he needs from his mother, and therefore, he will have a state of optimal physical and mental health if there is nothing out of the ordinary.

EXTRA FOAL
Formulated milk for foals
We will need maternity milk if:
- The mare has a small quantity of milk or it is low quality
- The foal has been orphaned
- There is a rejection by the mother, and the foal cannot nurse
In the event that digestive disorders appear at some point in the first days or months, a prebiotic should be administered to protect the intestinal flora. Foals can suffer from diarrhea, which can be either of a nutritional nature due to something that they have consumed or of bacterial origin (E. Coli, Streptococcus, etc.).
FLORYBOOST
Floryboost contains prebiotics, electrolytes and energy that help maintain the microflora balance and the health of the intestinal tract. Soothes the intestines by quickly covering their walls and absorbing toxins and other aggressive agents. Contains electrolytes to compensate for the loss in cases of diarrhea or digestive disorders, helping to restore intestinal balance again.
During the first weeks of the foal's life, we will be able to observe if its growth is within the average or, in the other way, we can suspect that he is growing too slowly. Before it is too late, we can help him grow.
FORTIBOOST
Fortiboost provides chelated oligoelements, vitamins, essential aminoacids and energy to strengthen and enhance the growth of the foal in the following cases:
In critical phases of growth
For weak foals without appetite and with slow growth
After illness or diarrhea
