Titrate refers to adjusting the dosage of a medication to achieve the desired effect, typically by gradually increasing or decreasing the dose. Wean, on the other hand, involves gradually reducing the dosage of a medication to safely discontinue its use, often done to prevent withdrawal symptoms or side effects.

I have 2 foals 6wk apart When we wean them should you wean one a bit early and one a bit late so you can wean them together or can you wean them at normal times with your gelding for company?

The best solution is to wean the foals together. Their ages are so close together that a little earlier or later won't make much difference.

How can you titrate with perchloric acid verses glacial acetic acd?

Since they are both acids, you don't usually titrate one against the other. If you want to titrate something, you should use one acid and one base. If one of them is a weak acid/base, the other should be a strong acid/base.So if you want to titrate a solution of acetic acid, use a solution of a known concentration of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) or potassium hydroxide (KOH) instead. You can also use either of those two strong bases to titrate a solution of perchloric acid.
