Episode 6 - The Calm Before the Foals: Foaling Prep at Meadow Brook Stables

Foaling season might look magical from the outside, but long before the babies hit the ground, there’s a lot of preparation happening behind the barn doors. In this episode, we take you inside Meadow Brook Stables to talk about what getting ready for foaling season really looks like. We cover when preparations begin, what supplies are always stocked in our foaling kit, how we set up stalls and the barn environment for safe deliveries, and how we support our mares nutritionally in the weeks leading up to birth. We also talk about the small details people often overlook, and the biggest lessons we’ve learned over the years after many foaling seasons — including a few that definitely kept us on our toes. If you’ve ever wondered what goes into preparing for the arrival of new foals, this episode gives you a real behind-the-scenes look at the planning, organization, and experience that helps set the stage for a successful foaling season. **Yes, we know Kaila is sideways - unfortunately, the orientation was filmed incorrectly, and the app we used to film it wouldn't let us flip it.
