Many foal are born with hernias. It is nothing more than a hole in the abdomen wall/muscle. Most times they will heal themselves without any surgery. Sometimes they need some help like manipulation from the outside to push anything (intestines etc.) sticking out of the hole back inside. really not anything to worry about.
