In utero, horses intestinal tracts are close to sterile. Soon after birth, however, microbial colonization skyrockets. Proper colonization lasts about 50 days, and is incredibly important as improper microbial gut content can result in inflammation and metabolic disease [1]. Equine hind-gut microbiota enable nutritional optimization from an otherwise nutrient-poor foraging diet via plant material fermentation [2]. The initial colonization, stabilization, and then weaning period (4-6 months old) as a foal transfers to solid food are important periods in establishing the microbial composition of the colon [1].
