How long is a horse pregnant?

The period of gestation is the time starting when a baby is conceived in the womb until it is born.

A horses' gestation period is roughly 11 months (or 340 days). Of course, a pregnant mare is never that predictable :D so a range of 320 to 370 days is considered fairly normal.

And I thought 9 months was a long time. Could you imagine 11. Geez.

Please feel free to email me your horse questions and I'll do my best to answer them or at least point you to someone or someplace that can. (Scroll down to the "About Me" section and click on "View my complete profile" to send me an email) I look forward to hearing from you! ~Melanie
