Just wondered if anyone had come across this before.
I have a little two year old miniature filly which I bought two months ago. I didn't have to travel her very far, but once I put her into the stable the next day I noticed weepy eyes and a snotty nose. I put the eyes watering down to the fact that she'd travelled in a trailer with the top front and back doors open. The nose stayed ruuny for a few days.
After a week it all cleared up and she was let out. A couple of times I noticed mucas on the floor and so I didn't let her out with others. This soon cleared up and off she went with the heard.
I've now noticed the runny nose again and am wondering if it's a stress related issue as she's in with a mare that's no very keen on her.
The stuff coming from her nose looks thick and is a cream colour. She is not lethargic, drinking, eating and running around happily. Obvioulsy I will ask my vet to investigate, but has anyone come across this with youngsters before?
