Question
well I feel silly asking this question been around horses for ever but this is only the second baby  my question is exactly how long do they carry I thought it was 11 months but not positive my mare took on May 4.

Answer
Hi!

Thanks for your question and I hope I can be of some help.

From the last day of breeding, a mare is usually pregnant for 11 months. But like any pregnancy it can vary depending on the circumstances that may arise.

I hope that answers your questions.
