Answer to Question 1

A newborn foal should be fed every 30 to 40 minutes. (Normal foals will nurse the dam seven
times per hour.) Foals 1 month and older should be fed a minimum of four times per day. As a
general rule, the foal should consume 1 ounce of milk for every 10 pounds of body weight per
hour.

Answer to Question 2

The right ear is reserved for Brucellosis vaccination tattooing.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
