We went on a trip to Dobšiná to a horse breeding farm where they produce Noriker draught horses which are used for working in the forests.
The foals are kept with mares for three years before being broken at four years old for basic training.
We were able to determine the gestational age by measuring the fetus length and how the heart was beating.
They’re big chunky horses with lots of muscle and a good temperament so ideal for their work.

They had wooden stocks set up into which they brought the mares for transrectal ultrasound for early pregnancy diagnosis.
