Re: surrogate mum needed

Have they tried Johana Vardon at the National Foaling Bank if its still open? She is very good at finding foster mares for orphaned foals.

Re: surrogate mum needed

How is the foal.

The yearling I used to loan was a hand reared orphan... it was touch and go for a while with her as she wouldnt take to the bottle but she did in the end and was coming on really well last I saw of her.
Really hope this little one makes it!! Keep us updated xx

In the UK the National Foaling Bank is the place to go.

Re: surrogate mum needed

How is the foal doing?

I'd keep trying with the bottle until you find a surrogate. Hopefully he'll take to the bottle with a bit more practice and you won't need a surrogate mare.
