Went to see my mare this morning and she is a lot calmer now -(those who read my post the other day - she was not herself and acting stroppy) Anyway I had the vet look at her who said she was fine. But today she has not stopped farting. she normally has a bit of flatulence but never this bad (like all the time) We have moved the horses to a new pasture now where there is more grass (the field she was in before the grass was a bit rubbish so she was on a feed twice a day). Now she has one feed a day as she does a lot of hard work, but there is a lot of grass so no need for more. So I presume the farting is from the grass change?? anyway she is s**tting more than usual too, my YO mentioned it to me today. Just wondered if this was normal or anything to worry about. As I said vet said she seemed absolutely fine and that she probably was in season, as nothing physically wrong with her. She's jumping brilliantly (more than usual - changing the subject) - do mares jump better when in season? Anyway the farting is really really bad - is there anything to help this? I assume the problem is in the gut? help needed
