Answer to Question 1

F

Answer to Question 2

In pasture breeding, stallions are turned into a pasture with mares and the mating occurs naturally. The advantage of this method is that it is less labor intensive and usually results in a greater percentage of pregnancies. However, this method can cause problems, because mares can sometimes get rough in the mating process. Often, kicking and biting are a part of the procedure and may cause blemishes in the skin of the mares or stallions.

In hand mating, however, the stallion is brought to the mare, which is either hobbled and restrained or placed in a breeding chute. This method has the advantage of certainty about the date of breeding and allows a closer estimation of foaling time.

This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. 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.
