Does he look tucked up?

[chotty]

Had him in tonight for some groundwork and a good groom and his dinner. I think he looks a bit tucked up tonight? What does everyone else think? His poo was very soft and green from the new grass, and he wasn't dehydrated as I offered him water + he was at the drinker when I brought him in. He's lost a quite a bit of condition lately so maybe it's just that mixed with the new grass? or is he wormy? He's not due another wormer for another month, but should I give it early?

Looks OK to me, especially given the weather over the last few days. Have you thought of having a faecal wom egg count done rather than just routinely worming?

Looks fine to me... How does he feel? Tense/ tight?

Ah thank you. Was just worrying as he just looked a wee bit different today, but still chirpy. I'm on a yard with turnout with quite a few other geldings, so it's routine worming as designated by yard owner

He looks fine to me but you know what he normally looks like.
There's nothing to stop you doing a worm count though.

Mmm not really tense or tight, stomach was a little bit 'hard' but just thought it was him having a bit of a grass belly? He ate his feed fine/haynet, so probably just worrying over nothing! Always paranoid with him now after him having a bout a colic a couple months ago!
