My lovely little foal is looking rather motheaten?
She has patches of hair coming out all over her.
Is this her foal coat shedding? She is one month old?
She is really well, healthy, lively in all ways and the hair she lost around her botty (due to the heat scour) is now growing back dark bay.

Yes , she is losing her foal coat. This is when you will see her true colour coming through.

How exciting - I wonder if Velvet will be dark bay like her grandad?

We have some very moth eaten ponies at present, most have started changing however our TB foal has only just now started to lose her coat - she was born 4th April!!!!! She had a coat like a teddy bear!!!! Now has her ears out and a bit off her neck but in general looks like a total rag bag!!!

Velvets has come off loads on her neck, but no new hair underneath - just bald!

Marlene Davey at Ninfield swears by sudocream on the bald patches for encouraging hair growth.
