& Additional Information
Book A Nurse Mare
At Cold Spring Mares, the wellbeing of every mare remains our highest priority — whether she’s on our farm or out on lease. We ask that all lessees maintain the same level of attentive care that each mare receives while under our supervision.
Our nurse mare fees are for a six-month lease within a 200 mile radius of our farm delivered and paired with your foal.
Lessees are expected to:
Maintain the mare’s current body condition, keeping her at a healthy weight and condition consistent with her arrival.
Provide consistent and regular grooming including general grooming, including provision of fly masks, fly spray, and blanketing as necessary.
Provide consistent, high-quality nutrition that meets her established dietary needs.
Ensure routine farrier care, typically every 6–8 weeks, unless otherwise specified.
Provide veterinary care as-needed during her lease.
Provide safe, clean, and comfortable housing and turnout appropriate to the mare’s age and activity level and the needs of the foal.
Notify Cold Spring Mares immediately of any health, injury, or behavioral concerns.
Our team is always available to offer guidance or clarification on each mare’s individual care plan and provides regular scheduled check-in’s to ensure all is going well. Together, we can ensure that every mare continues to thrive while fulfilling her important role in your breeding or training program.

*We are no longer able to offer payment plans/financing, however we do accept all major credit cards.
As the program develops with the help of donor support we hope to be able to bring this fee down, as the last thing anyone needs in the midst of a tragedy is a giant bill.

About Our Nurse Mares
ColdSpring Mares recognizes how stressful and emergent a situation can become when you find yourself with an orphaned foal. We aim to help alleviate some of the weight of your situation with the addition of a nurse mare. Our girls are meticulously maintained and ready to swing into action at a moments notice!
For our customers in the immediate area, we are often able to provide a nurse mare within a couple of hours. For our clients out of state, we will either hand deliver and pair one of our mares or send them directly to you via one of our trusted shipping partners within matter 24-48hrs. We recognize, time is of the essence and aim to deliver our mares to you as quickly as possible. We proudly have a near 100% success rate pairing our mares with orphaned foals. We guarantee our mares and should they not work out for any reason, we will provide an alternative mare at our expense.
Bronwyn Watts (founder) is there for you every step of the way, either pairing our mares personally or providing detailed instructions and support for success. Additionally, we are always available to be reached for any questions or concerns.
We recommend our mares stay with their orphans until the age of 5-6 months. Our ladies have vast experience adopting foals of all ages, sizes and breeds and do not discriminate (we’ve even foster-mom’d donkies!).
