Thordale Shetland Stud is proud to be associated with the National Foaling Bank – a small branch on a very large tree. Our aim is to supply any equine breeder with an emergency supply of mare’s milk replacer and colostrum any time – 24 hours a day We will keep an Emergency Kit with a supply of mare’s milk replacer tested and recommended by the National Foaling Bank. It will be available to purchase, anytime, day or night. The kit will contain all you need to get your foal back on its feet if, for whatever reason, your mare has no milk. Included in the kit, is a rubber foal teat, sterilising tablets and mare’s milk replacer milk powder along with full emergency feeding instructions. Feed bottles, Foal replacement colostrum and pro-biotic will also be available to purchase. There will be enough in the pack to cover you for a few days and then you can purchase more from the company who supply it. The details will be in the Emergency Pack. Johanna Vardon started the National Foaling Bank in 1965 and she enthusiastically supports this venture, as does Her Majesty The Queen who said she was “very interested to learn that you are currently setting up a scheme to supply mare’s replacement milk and colostrum for orphaned foals in Orkney and Shetland”. Thordale Shetland Stud is running this scheme purely for the benefit of all equine breeders on the Northern Isles – it is not financially profiting. Please help promote this Scheme.
