Ten Arabian foals aged 3-8 months, at private farm in Sharkia Province were used in this study, which continued from 1 st of December 2003 till the end of June 2004. The foals were divided into two equal groups of five foals each. The animals in the first group were weaned at 3 months of age while, those in the second group were weaned normally at 5 months of age. The first group foals spent less time in eating (43.32±5.22 vs 45.52±6.22% of their time), in standing rest and lying than the second group foals, but spent more time in standing alert (4.55±1.32 vs 4.12±1.53% of their time). The foals of first group had a lower body weight gain during the period of study than that normally weaned foals. The foals which weaned early at 3 months had engaged in stereotypies behaviour such as steps, head threat, bite threat, bite, kick threat and kick more than that foals which were weaned normally at 5 months, there was a significant difference in the level of cortisol hormone post-weaning between early weaned foals and normally weaned foals. In conclusion weaning of foals at 5 months of age was less stressful, more comfort and achieve good welfare for foals than early weaning.
