baby horses

Baby horses are cute. They are small, with very long legs and tiny little pricked ears, with a beautiful face. After the birth, the baby horses will start learning to stand. Their legs are wobbly at first which makes it difficult for them. Just like human babies, they have to learn to balance themselves when standing. A foal: A baby boy horse. A filly: a baby girl horse. A mare: a grown girl horse. A stallion: a grown boy horse. A gelding: a boy horse that's not a stallion yet. A yearling: a horse that is one year old. Baby horses are playful and usually friendly, (like little human babies.) But baby horses can also be very shy just like some little babies. Baby horses stay by their mothers at first when they are born. But soon, when the babies get older, they are running around the field without their mother right beside them. Horses are mammals, so they have hair and they nurse on their mothers. In the wild, a baby horse will have to learn to stand and keep up with the rest of the herd. The babies have to be tough and ready to run from anything that is danger. They have to be able to survive sicknesses and cold or hot weather. Baby horses need lots of care including training, grooming, feeding, checkups from the vet, and also need to be exercised. Usually when the baby horses are put in the field with their mothers, they will start running with their mothers there. Baby horses spend a lot of time in the field with their mothers.
