Colt foal gone off his hard feed?!?![/h]
.3Completely confused......Three days ago my colt foal was eating plenty of hard feed and Haylage as he is stabled at night. But the other morning his night feed was still in his feed bowl and hardly any haylage was touched?! I thought at the time it might be because he was under the weather, so put him out as usual with his two companions and watched him a while whilst he was at grass- he was eating grass completely fine??!! more confused!! Since then he has not touched his hard feed or barely touched his haylage at night? and to add to this he is barely drinking a quarter of his water, in the stable?! eeekk.....do you think he could have mouth ulcers or something i have checked his mouth but cannot see much there. I will be calling vet but thursday if he doesnt improve. I do hear that young horses can go off their hard feed is this right? also they can be prone to mouth ulcers? he is wormed regurlary.....last time was 3 weeks ago. Please help!
