Did you know that the average gestation period in a broodmare is 11months (340 days)?
This however, can vary significantly, ranging from 320 days to 370 days.
Factors which influence gestation length include nutrition, breed, age of mare, breeding history of mare and her overall health.
There is some evidence to suggest that the gestation period of colts may be slightly longer than that of fillies.
