Sisson, from Anatomy of Domestic Animals.) The center pair of incisors appear first, displacing the temporary pair when the animal is two and one-half to three years old. The second or intermediate pair displace the tem- porary teeth when the animal is three and one-half to four years old, and the third or corner pair displaces the corner temporary incisors at four and one-half to five years old. When these permanent incisors are all completely up and in wear the horse has a full mouth. After the animal reaches this five-year stage, the age is determined by the order of disappearance of the cups in the incisors. Digitized by Microsoft®.
