Breeding
I was just wondering how everyone does his or her breeding?
Do you hand breed or Pasture breed?
Pasture breeding, one or more mares at a time? Do you breed on the foal heat? If you pasture breed how do you deal with the foals, or do you deal with the foals or just let the mares do it? Has anyone ever had problems with stallions hurting babies?
How about how you keep your stallions? Box stall, or turnout? Alone or with company, male or female?
If you do leave a mare with your stallion how do you handle foaling, do you just leave her in with him or do you separate them when her due date gets near and then put her back after the baby is born?
I like to hear how others do things; you learn a lot this way.
