There are a couple different views on why the foals come into heat, but in my experience, it is when the mare comes back into heat. I had two mares that did not come back into a 7 day heat and the foals did not get the scours. Some foals just don't, depending on what feed you are feeding and if their gut is more or less prone to changes. If you are adding (good) probiotics or have a good quality in the feed, then foals usually do not get it either.
I surely would not worry about it!!

I've had a couple very minor cases, more a day of diarrhea but nothing like I've seen in other breeds.
