Stay pregnant? I have friends who have gotten some about 4 months ago and the people they got them from said the female might be pregnant. Is there a way to tell if she is?

if they are like other horses, it should be about 11 months--give or take. the best way to tell is to have the vet come out and do an ultrasound. obviously, palpating would be hard depending on the size of the mare. by ultra sound, this way they could tell size, check for abnormalities, heartbeat, etc. when i worked for an equine vet he had this thing on the ultrasound where you could measure the eye of the foul and get an estimate of age.
