Young Horses

Young horses, often called foals or foals-in-training, are horses in their early developmental stages, typically from birth until they mature around 3 to 4 years old. During this period, they grow physically, learn social skills, and develop essential behaviors. Proper handling and training are crucial to ensure they become well-mannered and adaptable adults. Their care involves focused nutrition, social interaction, and gentle training to foster confidence and good conduct. Understanding their developmental needs helps owners and trainers support healthy growth and prepare them for future activities or work.
