Mares coming in do not need to be examined before arrival, they should be without shoes, with well trimmed hooves. It is better to bring the mare when she is close to her fertile period. Mares can stay at Syðri-Gegnishólar during the process until they have been soned pregnant. The mares are treated as our own, they get worm treatment on arrival. No responcibility is taken for injuries of mare or foal during their stay with us but some cost may result from it. In case of major incident, the owner is contacted.
