Hi, I don't post here much mostly lurk. I recently bought another Mini Mare. I was so excited to ad her to my small Mini Herd of now 4. She is the granddaughter of Hemlock Brooks Egyptian King, 14 yrs young and possibly pregnant by Iles Apache Appy Ace. She is having issues with a itchy tail and mane. I have wormed her for pin worms, bathed her with people dander shampoo so far. She does seem to have dander and if I run my hand through her body hair it feels greasy. I plan soon as the weather cooperates to bath her again with horse anti fungal shampoo and apply Witch Hazel. I do feed Black Oil sunflower seeds and wonder if that could be causing the issue ? I did stop giving them to her a couple days ago just in case. Also wondered if maybe with the possiblity she is prego could that also cause such issues ? I know women can have dryer then normal hair/skin or more oily. Any advice will be appreciated. Oh and she eats Purinia Strategy and orchard hay along with some pasture.
