Here are some more additional information regarding horses.
1. Normal body temperature in adults : 99.50 F – 101.50 F.
2. Normal pulse rate : 33 – 41 / minimum.
3. Age of puberty : 15 – 24 months.
4. Length of 0 estrus cycle : 21 days ± 5 days.
5. Length of 0 estrus : 6 days ± 4 days.
6. Gestation period : 336 days ± 5 days (average 340 days)
7. Breeding life : 18 years ± 2 years.
8. Best breeding season : early spring.
I just have a question, why is it that foals have higher rates than adult horses? Is this also the same with humans?
