Thank you, @Kerry , for listening to the replay!
Caroline has a British accent, but she lives in Texas! She was getting SBM but bugs were growing in it. So I don’t think she needs this address. However, I want to thank you for suggesting this. You are so kind!. Doc T

I had a chance to watch this video. The first thought is that he will get kicked! I have seen horses become distraught and “unglued” with hind gut inflammation – worse than the last horse. Please be careful and stand by the shoulder and face the rear and have someone control the hear. Remember Law 1 – a horse can kill you, and Law 2 – the… Read more

Soybean meal (SBM) is a legume grain, not a cereal grain higher in sugar like oats, wheat, and others from grasses. I believe that much of the inflammation in the gastrointestinal tract is from the lectins in the hulls of grains. These are proteins developed by plants to cause harm to animals, so they stop eating their seeds. Search for lectins… Read more

Start with a pound of oats.
It seems like there have been changes in his routine, including hock injections (this involved sedation, which may have stressed the gut microbiome). Another stress was you leaving for 10 days if he likes you and expected you to stabilize his life in the “new barn.”

@Carol This question opens several questions. The first is, what is weight? The word includes body fat, muscle, bone, water, and other things that can be weighed. I sound a bit fussy here, but if the horse loses body fat during a long distance trip and exposes lost muscle, that is a different problem than just body fat.

No worries, @Wren because no one showed up. We had sent out reminders, but maybe they didn’t work as planned, or it’s just too busy for everyone this time of year. Either way, we are moving the next Rounds to January. Doc T

@Kayce I stayed on the Zoom meeting with Kathy and Matt until 8:15 when we pulled the plug because no one showed up. I even said, “Kayce always comes in late,” so we were there until 8:15. Probably a millisecond before you logged in!
Anyway, I have decided to wait until January to start back up. We will announce this soon. Thanks for coming… Read more
