Our Mare Gestation Calculator will help you to find out the approximate date when your pregnant mare may foal. The average gestation period for horses is approximately 11 months (320-330 days). This length of time is generally consistent across all breeds of horses. However, it is important to note that individual horses may have slightly longer or shorter gestation periods, and in rare cases, a mare may carry a foal for longer or shorter than the average length of time.
