My baby horse (who was 2 in May) has had swollen glands for about two weeks. It's not the glands round his throat, the ones under his jaw are the problem. A couple of weeks ago I phoned the vet about it but as he was still eating, drinking, and aqbsolutley fine in himself, she suggested just monitoring them and giving him garlic. I did both of these things and two weeks later, they're the same and so is he. i would get the vet out but when my mare's leg came uo before Christmas (although she wasn't lame, it didn't hurt her and she was fine in herself) they went through the same tests that I'd done, said they didn't know what was wrong, gave me some anti-biotics and I had a bill for £100. I'm not being mean, if I thought he was 'ill' I'd get the vet in a heartbeat...any suggestions...is there anything that I could feed to boost his immunity?
