Thankyou, when I got him I rugged him as he was already thin and it was cold the problem we had was we struggled to find somewhere else for them to get away from the sheep I have since moved him to the place I work so I can keep a close eye on him everyday
In all fairness her other 3 that were in with him did lose a little weight but they have all been moved too and are fit and well now it's just mine didn't cope so well just want to do everything I can
I can't get any at the moment but will try next week he is basically skin and bone really really thin the vet said if we are lucky he's had a narrow escape
The vet has given him a worming injection and another injection to give him a bit of a boost, I have been told to give him plenty of feed, sugar beet etc
Kim1978 Thankyou I will find some of that to put him on. and as for who was in charge I got him off a friend who is just so so busy before I had him I was going up when she couldn't to hay and feed them but I could only wait with them while they ate the hard feed to make sure the sheep didn't...
thankyou for the advice the vet has seen him, it was a case of being in a bad place for winter him and his friends were stuck in a field with sheep that were being starved so were eating the ponies feed and hay but he has been moved now, but will bare everything in mind everything will help.
i have a 2 year old cob who has lost a seious amount of weight over winter he is literally skin and bone, he has ben seen by a vet and if we are lucky we have had a narrow escape, does anyone have any advice of what to feed etc to help get the weight back on him as i want to do everything i can...
