Question
I have a horse and when he dies i want to have his foal. But my father gelded him without my permission! He is now a gelding. Is there ANY WAY that he could have a foal. . .Please help

Answer
Hi - unfortunately there is no way to get a son/daughter out of your horse now that he is gelded.  The closest you could come would be a sibling - full or half.....

I understand the desire to continue a bloodline of a horse you like/love - I had 3 generations at one time on my farm - am down to 2 and if I want to continue I will need to breed my mare and hope for a filly (she had a colt the first time around - I still have him as a gelding).
