YOUNG (OFFSPRING)• Foals weigh approximately 55 pounds at birth. The foals white stripes are more brown
than white. As the foal grows its stripes turn turn white. The foal can stand on its feet an hour after it is born. It can run with a herd after a few hours after it is born. That helps it escape from predators.
