The best halter experience for foals
The foal version of our patented Hybrid Halter features a leather poll and cheek for stability and a criss crossed figure eight design with slide ring undercarriage. The slide ring has less range of motion than our adult horse versions and just enough play for the young foal's learning thanks to the figure eight design and allows for smooth and easy threading of a foal handling line (as a girth rope) or later a seamless transition to a snap end lead rope. Depending on breed/size - fits up to 45 days old for Quarter Horses and to 35 days for sport horses. HEC has 12 years of experience making this original foal halter design, which we have continuously iterated for the youngest equine learners.
The application of poll pressure for foals can lead to increased risk of dangerous flipover, so the Hybrid Halter Foal Slip is designed around the concept of steadying support of the foal's entire head to reduce such risks. Will also fit very small miniature horses that are smaller than our standard mini size. Also fits most adult goats and sheep.
Fully breakaway in the leather option - the leather is 3/4" wide. Also available in a cheek snap style for easier on and off little heads.
The nylon version is not breakaway and should only be used for leading training and then removed - 1/2" wide.
The next size up from foal is Weanling and can be found here.
