Answer 2

NEVER too late.....Our first foal I got to see at five hrs old I can still cry about it if I think about it too long she was soo beautiful and soft and her mum pushed me over to her it was all so intimate and wonderful.  Then last year our mare had another filly  but we didnt get to put hands on till she was a week old but by then it wasnt the same as the other it took a little more work on both our parts but the mare again helped out she just pushed the filly to us.  I love the horses they are better animals than some people.  So go and get hands on and build up trust and friendship and you will have a good friend.  Have a good day.  Sandy.
