YReally hoping someone can help I'll try to keep it as short as poss. I have a 16hh ID x Cob who I bought as a 4 year old (now 7). He's been out of work for a few months (nothing wrong with him, just circumstances) but now bringing him back into work. The problem is when I ride, his shoulders and sides having started quivering just like he's got a fly on him or something's tickling him. He then gets a bit antsy and throws his head around a bit, starts jogging and just getting irritated? I haven't noticed this quiver or twitch at all when he's not tacked up. He's not lethargic, off his food, losing weight or anything else. I clipped him right out as thought he might be getting hot as he had a very thick coat but that hasn't made any difference, checked him for lice etc - nothing?? Has anyone ever experienced anything like this? He's not head shaking as such just getting annoyed by it. He's fine to tack up, not girthy or anything.
