I was wondering if you have any pictures that show the stages of the foal in pregnancy while the foal is in the womb in a normal preganancy?
What about pictures of a breech pregnancy?

Here are a few sites with some pictures that might be of interest to you:

There are also lots of foaling books and videos on the market. "Blessed are the broodmares" is a great book.
Good luck!

There is a neat fetus development timeline as follows:
https://equineestates.com/development.html
It shows the development from Day 9 through Day 320.
Check it out, I think you'll find it quite interesting.

Hello Cindy,
You will find a series of pictures of a normal birth at » Equine Reproduction » Breeding and Foaling » Normal Birth (Parturition). There are literally dozens of variations of presentations tha might result in a "breech birth". What is important is to recognize normal so that the abnormal can be identified. The article gives some brief recommendations on corrections you might attempt if presented with a breech foal.
We have a link to a good series of pictures of the developing fetus at » Equine Reproduction » Breeding and Foaling » Pregnancy Diagnosis.

Hey everyone,
Vera's right, "Blessed are the Broodmares" is an excellent book! Anyone thinking of raising a foal should have this book on hand.
