Horse birth alarms - reliable monitoring during foaling season
A horse birth alarm is an essential tool for breeders and horse owners during foaling season. The birth of a foal is a special but also critical moment, often taking place at night when supervision is more difficult. A reliable birth alarm horse system helps you stay informed and ensures you are present at the right time, without the need for constant manual checks.
At Emmers Equestrian, we offer a carefully selected range of horse birth alarms designed to support safe and stress-free foaling. These systems monitor your mare’s behaviour and send an alert when she lies down in a position associated with labour. This allows you to respond quickly when it matters most, improving both safety and peace of mind.
Different types of birth alarms are available, each with its own technology. Choosing the right system depends on your stable setup, the number of mares and your preference for monitoring .
Using a horse birth alarm not only reduces stress during the final stage of pregnancy, but also helps you avoid unnecessary checks throughout the night. This makes it a valuable addition for both professional breeders and private horse owners.
